Lambo Huracan Performante -- Landing Men on the Moon...

[Yipper]

Motor Trend Channel, which has as many subscribers as Top Gear, is calling the Huracan Performante the auto equivalent of landing men on the Moon. It is that big a leap forward. New video here:

It will be interesting to see what time SportAuto can achieve with it when they do a full test.
In terms of Actually buying a car, still would have a hard time walking past an Aventador - just seems like so much more Lambo than this.

Rumours that some buyers are switching their orders from the Aventador S to the Huracan Performante. Possibly for a faster car, or to flip it for a quick buck.

It's certainly faster around the Ring, which is quite a good test of how "fast" a car is.

Be interested to know at what speed the ALA really comes into play to produce the astonishing ring time where the performante seems to outperform lighter and more powerful cars ?.
Cant imagine it being a major player in normal road driving though which is all I'm really interested in

The spider will also have to have major revision to ALA due to the roof and engine bay lines

If you watch the record HP Ring lap and compare it with the slower 918 laps, you'll see the ALA makes a big difference in slower and bumpier corners. Gets the power down better than any other car on the planet right now.

So with Lambo upping its game we can expect big premiums on the Performante then ? Previous special editions haven't quite lived up to Ferrari or McLarens editions like Speciale and LT

I'd expect small premiums but nothing daft but I reckon residuals will be very strong as Lamborghini are trickling these out slowly unlike the original Huracan. I'm quoted late next year if I order one now!

With Brexit coming and interest rates rising, doubt anything will see big gains for now. Early offers on US HPs are quoting a 10-20% premium to list price at the moment.
