Brilliant! Your videos show that unless you actually drive the competitors you wouldn't know what best suits you and you could end up with the wrong car!
Exactly. I think everyone likes different things. Just because one reviewer doesn't like something, doesn't mean it's wrong for everyone. Is just opinion. Thanks for watching again! 😄
@@sportzntouring This generation of Lambo is honestly so overlooked. Everybody always wants the latest and 'greatest' but when it comes to pure driving engagement this is where it's at. I think you made the right decision. If it were my money I would honestly have one of these over a Huracan any day of the week.
@LavshBeatsTMlavishbeats I've actually still not driven a Huracan (only tried the 2nd gen R8)... But, if I was to get one, I know I'd want the Perf... I've always preferred the best edition of an older car than the entry level of a newer car... Not sure why. But, the Huracan Perf is a bit outside my budget unfortunately.
@@sportzntouring I mean Perfs are like 250k for a decent one these days... I actually got a chance to drive an early base Huracan on one of those supercar experience days around an airfield. I will admit it did sound amazing and took off like a jet but it did feel similar to the way you described your experience with the 720s. A whole lot of performance but not crazy amounts of drama going on. The shifts were a lot smoother than I expected (similar to the shifts in my GR Supra with ZF 8 speed), the ride was a lot softer than expected and there wasn't huge amounts of steering feel either. I haven't driven a Gallardo but had a passenger ride in a standard LP-560 and it did feel like there was a lot more drama just from the passenger seat alone! haha.
Very nice !! I think you’ve got the Jekyll (R8) and Hyde (lambo) combinations of cars. I’ve got PZeros on my R8, they too will be getting switched to Michelins. Roll on summer… Enjoy!
Got to admit that the orange accents are growing on me and i rather like them now. Awesome sounding car! I'm thinking of the same tyre choice for my Aston when it comes back out of winter storage as that also has mismatched front and back by the previous owner.
Amazing car. Looks great, sounds great. Goes great. I remember mid 00’s in the city seeing a yellow gallardo cruise by tower hilll and it looked 10x better than a Ferrari. Good time to buy! Let us know if you sell the R8!
@andrewbox8984 there's a short of the R8GT on track, me Vs my son. Hopefully I won't be quite as slow in comparison next time 😅 th-cam.com/users/shortsoejsBwnI9q8
Its a great car nevertheless but i really hope n prefer if you got the Ferrari f8 or 488 mate.... nothing against this car but its the same engine as your r8 gt.... basically the same car with a fancied body 😊😊
@@kornonacob it's really not the same car. It's a completely different driving experience. It even sounds different. Either way, I have to buy the cars that I love, not the ones that others wish I'd bought. The other cars just didn't give me the same feeling.
NiceI I keep being surprised how these are so "affordable". Want to get around town? Take the RAV4. Want to have your ears blown out and kicked in the back while hugged by carbon fibre and alcantara? The SL is near unbeatable then. Smart getting the same tires as the R8 GT.

Incredible car. Honestly didn’t even know it existed before you bought one. This is absolutely the golden era of supercars.
@@itsjoel thanks Joel! It really was! And, I seem to have a knack for finding cars that few people know existed 😅
Exhaust sounds really good on this.Roll on the summer.
Can't wait!!
Looking forward to seeing it @ the JayEmm meet 👌
I'm sure it will be along to one of them soon. Not the January one, unfortunately.

First!!!
Drive safe on these icy roads!
@@twizlar12 ah, this was before the weather turned. For sure, it's not going anywhere right now.
Great video, well done 👍
Thank you 👍
Love seeing how exited you are to drive it, car people's dream ants your hard work got you living that dream!
Thanks Josh! Much appreciated!
Go on Ant! Living the dream!
Ha ha! Thank you!

Good to know, and yes, based on James's feedback on the car, that sounds about right too. I have no regrets, as you can tell! 😂

@@benpenagonzales6014 will do. No plans to sell the R8 but always open to offers 😉
Thanks for watching ☺️
Awesome, but I would have have bought a pre-LP Gallardo with the proper Italian, 5.0 V10. Sounds comparable to the CGT or LFA.
@@Emira_75 my son is the same. And, I agree about the sound. But, this was the one for me. Thanks for watching 🙏
The car that gives you "the fizz". Agree 100%. That's what it's all about :)))
Do you think you'll ever drive it on a track?
Yes, we've got some track driving planned for the summer.
@sportzntouring fantastic. Can't wait to see it.

@sportzntouring great short video. Family time is priceless with more to come on track obviously. Give him a run for his money Ant :))
@@sportzntouring cool perspective of the different lines on track you both had.
65 years old and jealous as hell, congrats on the Lambo
Thank you!!

Thank you! Yes, you're right. It's such a visceral experience!
That’s proper
Thank you!! 😎
