Lamborghini Huracan



               
                The Lamborghini hurricane is hands down my favorite car that I see driving around Grosse Pointe.  The cars modern sleek lines and the bright vibrant orange and lime green colors they offer from the factory make this car a head turner.  All I can say is it better turn heads for the base price of $237,250.
                This sounds like an insane price when you think you can buy a dodge charger hell cat with 100 more hp for 65 grand.  Trust me when I say you are getting your money's worth.  It's not about the power for the price.  It's how that power is delivered to the road.  The hell cat has more power but it never sticks to the road.  In the Lamborghini it feels like there is super glue attached to your tires allowing you to accelerate and take turns at almost unnatural speeds.   This is thanks to the gyroscopes that monitor the road and car, adjusting the amount power to each wheel for maximum grip.  While this is one of my all time favorite cars here are some of the things I hate about it.
               The carbon fiber, Italian leather seats in this Lamborghini are terrible. While they look amazing, after 30 minutes in this car my back was telling me it was time to get out.  For this price you would think the car would be more comfortable than a park bench.  The next thing that I hate about this car are the rims.  Again with the same theme, they look amazing.  But if you scratch them up against a curb (like my friend did) it will set you back almost 10 thousand dollars. To put that in perspective that's roughly a cost of a used smart car for the price of one rim.
               With all those negative things I would still buy this car if I had the money because it's just that good at doing what its supposed to do. Putting power to the road and looking good while doing it. No car is perfect but this Lamborghini is pretty close to it.

You have heard my thoughts, now here is what Top Gear thought about the car

  1. Very cool car! While I'll never own a Lamborghini, it's very cool to see what a super car can really do! Based on your review, it seems the car is more about making a statement more than anything else; which makes sense given the big price point!
