Problem is even the Performante they made to many, the Evo has all but matched it and you know that they will still do a Super Trofeo / Leggera / Something for the EVO which will 'truly' be the last NA V10 Lambo with all the lightweight + ALA gimmicks. Look how many Gallardo run out specials there were, I bet the same will happen but with the modern Lambo volumes.
The 'EVO Super Trofeo Superleggera Tricolore Stradale' blah blah blah will end up selling 300+ cars in the UK just like the perf, then what happens to that 150k performante?
Yes very true indeed.
As I've mentioned so many times, out of everything I test drove I think the 458 was probably the slowest of all the cars, but it is the won I wanted the most after test drives.
The simple facts is I came away from most cars feeling not that stimulated or tingling, ok do not get me wrong if your coming from an average daily car and you drive any super car you shall be blown away, but I am someone who enjoys driving for driving and the fun of it. There are cars like GT86, MX5 which are huge fun to drive because you have to drive the wheels of them and you can do so whilst remaining somewhat legal.
I found particular when I drove the Huracan even gently the speeds involved would land me with a jail sentence, even worse the car felt well quite boring, the moment you push some of these car to the point they are engaging you or getting the hairs on your neck to raise you are doing some totally insane speeds. The Huracan was worse for this, I guess maybe you can blame the Audi influence for that somewhat, but even the RWD Huracan also felt quite numb to me. Mclaren was more engaging (570S) but to me it sounded just so bad and lets not get into Mclaren service and residuals but needless to say they do not exist.
End of the day it was so so close between a 991.1 GT3 RS and the 458, but the 458 simply won it, yes it is crazy fast car I mean it may of being the slowest but it still hits 60 in around 3s but the winner and shocker for me was when pedalling the car down a back lane was it felt so engaging without actually really pushing it, I remember going wow wow wow in the drivers seat and feeling like I was going really fast to look at the speedo to see 55mph and what I do like is the car will move around too if you so desire.
But why I really like Performante is basically no 4WS, out of the cars I've driven with this I tend to hate it because to me the car is almost reacting unnaturally to my inputs and it genuinely feels somewhat odd, maybe it is something you will get used but for me in the GT3 models I drove with I found it rather off putting and the Performante does not have it, but the EVO does.
, that is incredible. Need seriously deep pockets for that scenario. I do wonder if McLaren actually have a plan for their current reputation, because I absolutely love the brand and the engineering is superb.
