Congratulations! One question...why not drive it back to Austin from LA? By the time you hit Texas, you would have had your 500 miles in!

Simple: 1) Too busy, 2) Too far, 3) Easier to load and have it show up on my door step

Congratulations! I'm thinking a Huracan is my next car after the wife gets her 50k Tiffany 2ct solitaire diamond. I also want a challenger Hellcat. Along with my 14 full size Range Rover, her 13 Range Sport and these babies: I just put a lift in my front courtyard to accommodate a 15 Z06 and a 14 never titled Viper SRT....


I love it. I have a car sickness too. Congratulations. I'm very impressed. I think if I see one in person I'll buy it too since I live in LA.

What can I say Paul.

Two of the best.

Your bull has more brakes on the rear LHS than my AMG has on all four.

Go hard or go home.

A crazy beast of a car....... Just love that monster sound track too.....huge congrats......

Also interesting to see the Turbo S (which is my current toy) slightly faster round Willow Springs than the GT3. Something I wouldn't have expected even though it's faster 0-60.

Looked at 650s and was in the mix, but the depreciation on those cars are horrible and with them coming out with 570, they just keep making things worse. My friend had a 12c and 650s and I drove both. The best part of that car are the doors...but the rest...meh. The sound of the Lambo alone is worth the price of admission

Sorry bro, the transport guy stopped off on nw Austin to let me check out a slick black lambo he was transporting. I gotta say, it's fast. Might smell like Kerby Lane pancakes. I'll leave you some syrup for you on the glove box.
