Default Traded up....

Well , I traded in my 2014 Stingray a year ago for my 2015 Z06. Love the car, but ever since I picked it up, I've hated driving my 2008 Gallardo. The damn single clutch just drives me nuts now. So, about a week ago, I decided to trade up. All I can say is WOW!!! It's like night and day.

Nice I recently did the Lamborghini experience in PBIR and the Huracan was awesome. Enjoy it!

Congrats on a great car.

While we are at it.. you shouldve tried a manual Gallardo. Prefferably Superleggera and above.

The 911 was a birthday gift for my wife. I'm not a Porsche fan, but I must admit that the PDK is the best around. The rest (Z06, GT-R and Huracan are ALL MINE!!!!

BIG PIMPIN'! How does the Huracan feel compared to the Z06? Worth the premium?
