Huracan is over 50 per cent stiffer than the outgoing aluminum-spaceframe Gallardo
Very nice looking car but it has a tough act to follow, looks wise. Think i'd still take a Gallardo LP560-4. Staggeringly beautiful.
Let's club together, buy one and share it....like a thoroughbred horse
Nice, what about the new McLaren 650S? Not sure where it fits though as it's between the MP4-12C and the new P1.
BUT, I have to say for that new Lambo is the utter mutts nuts dogs danglies awesomeness
The rear end is somehow very classic. Does look wide though?
I think the 650S is the replacement for the MP4-12C, I may be wrong though.
Yeah, I thought that, but it can't be as the 12C is only what, a year and a half old. And the way it seems to be placed is a middle model car. I guess you have to drive them to see the differences, I guess it's a bit tricky to separate your car range when the base one already does 200 and 0 to 60 in 3 seconds ish!
For me the 12C showed that McLaren fundamentally didn’t understand the sports cars market, they tried and succeeded in producing a technically superb vehicle, but missed the whole point that these cars are mainly toys, and as such their primary function is about having fun and putting a smile on the drivers face. All the talk of the 650S having more emotion is about addressing that initial failure.
how much time have you spent driving the 12C...?Absolutely, pretty much every single 12C review was the same, car quic as **** but soulless and dull, the computer was FAR too controlling and you felt removed from the driving. They let the tech make the car, instead of hiding the tech and letting it compliment the driver.

I think you are vastly exaggerating exactly what the reviews said!
No I'm not, Clarkson didn't like it and it threw Tiff Neadle off the track. And they drive and test cars for a living.
What did Tiff Needell say as part of ECOTY 2012....?
I've no idea, but in the video I posted he reflected what I said, post a link to what he said if you feel it contradicted his review on Fifth Gear.
