Stunning. Not MM qualifying though (referring to the original post).

What a thing to track though. Hmm, I just created a space in the garage, but I promised the wife, but there’s a space, but wife, but space, but wife. Arrgh.
Surely forgiveness is easier than consent?
Yeah, I’ve played that hand over and over again.

I’m at Salon Prive so gonna look what’s on show there. I’m told there’ll be a few new Ferrari announced next year too.

Looks good but basic spec hence the pricing. Pricing of these ranges from £225k up to £275k so very spec dependent.

At the end of the day its the same car with the same great engine so if it works for your budget go for it but at same time don't expect to get top money on resale.
Seems to me a lot of lower spec cars are harder to move on at this type of money

That classic Alfa above is delightful.

It would end up be a keeper for whoever buys it, I suspect.

I know very little about the sought-after spec items on the Performante. What do you feel this car is lacking?

Not sure about lower spec cars being harder to move - they aren't moving full stop.

Never you mind

Think he means the laser etched seats and little things like that.

That does look lovely though. It's green, V10, a Lamborghini, has bucket seats and it has a nice big wing on the back. Do you need anymore?

Check you like the seats first, the ones that are slow to sell have buckets, but if you like them it’s a win/win for you!

Not actually sat in them on the Performante, but my preference generally would be for bucket seats.

Like the man said, try them first. They look great, but after 30 minutes in them i couldn't wait to get out. Too upright for me and obviously not adjustable.

TBH both seats styles are compromised and lambo dealer says its 50/50 and usually a deal breaker either way.

Personally I couldn't live with "comfort" seats in a track car, it simply has to be buckets and accept they are firm and upright in true race style. This isn't an issue as long as you sit in them properly ie park your bum fully back to the upright so your lower back has some lumbar support. Slump down in them and arch your back you will suffer lower back pain after an hour

The comfort seats are way to high if you are tall ie 6 ft + and your visibility through the letterbox windscreen will be even more compromised. They also lack support' and are no where near as nice to look at. They are probably even worse in the spider version as your eyeline will be directly where the top of the roof/windscreen is
