What do you guys think of my Lamborghini STO order?

I wasn't going to do the base, but also not the STO, but am looking at a Huracan. The AWD attracts me because in the end it'll be faster, but after driving a 720 and a 570, damn those cars are sorted. The 911 GT2 was also sweet, but a bit pedestrian. The huracan drove the worst on the track though, it felt like a brick. Also if you've ever worked on one you'd want to kill yourself.

Quite a promotion going from an E90 M3 to a Lambo.

That's cool and should stop traffic,just prefer gloss gunmetal paint.

TXSTYLE · 02-09-2021, 05:25 PM

Gonna be a huge nope for me.

For a car of this magnitude, only a gorgeous, exotic, shiny color will do.
But even a run of the mill white or black is better than a matte finish.

But it ain't my bread so... You do you.

It is very true. Configurators by Lambo and McLaren are very off. I have considered Nero, but then it blends the carbon in. Right now, waiting for Italy to get back to me on colored carbon pricing. It costs $140k for McLaren for fully exposed colored carbon. Let's see what Lamborghini is at.

I think a darker base with Verde Ithaca accents would be nice.

Then the EVO would be a great car for you! Is this Lantana Purple you are considering for the 765?

Yeah I saw the color in person on a 720s and was just blown away. It looked sweet. Exposed CF would be nice, but I doubt it'd really help hold it's value any better. At least with a reg mclaren you know the depreciation hit out of gate, same with a hurucan, but you do these special things and finding the right buyer just gets even harder.

No go here

Eternalthinker · 02-09-2021, 09:36 PM

Different configurator and the color looks so different.

x622 · 02-10-2021, 12:37 AM

Still not a fan of that yellow but if that’s what you like

Now THAT looks a lot better. Not even close to those original pictures you showed.

...But I agree with this. I think that base color will really work, but I'd probably do something besides the yellow.

Not a fan of these cars in general, but that yellow looks like you rattle canned it in the drive. Too Pepboys for me. Get rid of that STO sticker on the doors also.
