  1. Not a forum member. But yes topspeed did the work. I can put you in touch with him if you would like ? Real cool laid back guy
  2. We have a local Huracan spider here in Atlanta that just had a VF800 installed. Owner loves it!
  3. As others have pointed out. Really depends on the car. Kinda works with a race car inspired appearance. GT3RS...STS...Viper GTSR etc. not so much on a basic exotic. One thing to be cautious about ...make sure whomever applies the lettering knows what there doing. These tire stickers look good from 5+ feet away and in pics, but when you get up close they can look horrendous if not done properly. Also if you ever decide to take them off they do cosmetically damage the rubber of the tires.
  4. Very nice ...You guys always do outstanding work! Top quality products as well!
  5. I've got a long way to replicate your garage 1 down 5 to go ! LOL
  6. Agree with Fortis. The 570's front headlights are too big which offsets the look of the front end. The rear ended isn't much better with the flower petal like tail lights. However the 675lt and the P1 design we're home runs!
  7. Happy to hear it sold! I was very close to buying it back a few months ago from Broward, but was looking at a couple other options at the time. Glad you had the oppprtunuty to drive the car to its full potential. It's still one of my favorites. There were a couple of threads a few years back on either this forum ...LT or perhaps both where Roy Cats shared his thoughts and impressions regarding the STS. He always stated the car had a good bit more output than what Lamborghini claimed (amongst other little tweaks) after owning the car I had no doubt. Glad you came to the same conclusion from your driving experience and dyno testing. Btw Congrats on the Ford GT!
  8. Sounds like you found a gem....Rosso Mars? Your SL was a beast! But cant go wrong with the V12 and doors going up! Looking forward to hearing more feedback from ya on your A.
  9. Yup! Will be interesting to see if Lamborghini has programmed in a more "aggressive" shift with the Huracan Performante. The car seems to be quite the performance beast from what we've heard. I miss my Aventador's. How you enjoying yours?
  10. I would say the Speciale is up another notch. Even though it has a DCT Ferrari has figured out a way to make it feel similar to a single clutch in that it's very engaging in its shifts. You get the best of both worlds fast shifts along with an aggressive feedback. The steering of the Speciale feels very light...handles precisely...the car is overall more refined than the STS (in a positive way). The STS is definitely more raw between the two. On paper the overall performance of the Speciale is better, but with every day driving I think it's minimal to notice. On the track I've seen videos of both cars performing extremely well. I've seen some where the Speciale outperforms the STS and I've seen others where the STS overtakes the Speciale. I guess it more or so depends on the driver or how each car was set up that particular day to race. Both cars aren't as fast as their successor's or other competition in their segments, but they're more than capable and fast enough while at the same time they don't sacrifice sound or overall driving experience. However is the Speciale in my opinion a better car to justify paying double the price of an STS ? Well if you take the collectibility aspect out of the equation then I dont think so... I had just as much fun driving the STS as I did the Speciale (maybe more). They both will be timeless in design and poses a commanding presence . The Speciale has a very sexy silhouette with nice smooth curves and the STS has that crazy wing and edgy, aggressive, race car look. Both get the same attention driving down the road (perhaps the STS got a bit more). They both sound awesome, however they need either the valves tied open or an aftermarket exhaust to unleash their full sound potential. In conclusion they're both amazing cars! I enjoyed them pretty much equally and some day ill have them both together in the garage. Unfortunately for the STS it won't have the same collectibility potential as the Speciale. However at half the price it will bring just as much driving enjoyment and a smile to your face
  11. Two very different cars for two different buyers Huracan -obviously faster mainly due to the DCT -softer ride -more of a daily driver -upgraded technology -more refined -heavier car -more sterile due to seamless shifts from the dct -awesome sounding crackles from the exhaust STS/SC -more raw -feels lighter to drive (2,945 -STS vs 3,062-Huracan) -a bit more loud in the cockpit -more race car inspired -more engaging to drive especially in Corsa mode -better down force due to large wing when cornering -doesn't take a lot of effort to get the back end lose -brutal downshifts along with a high pich racing engine sound -street legal version of the super trofeo race car The Huracan Performante will probably be a better comparison to the STS even though it's performance will pretty much destroy the STS, but since it's going to be a mass produced car there won't be any collector car value and will follow the normal depreciation curve. Will have to wait for the Huracan final edition numbered cars. With you having the Porsche CGT. Murci SV..Ferrari 16M.. etc. I think either the STS or SC would fall right in line with your preference in cars. They might not have the potential to sky rocket in value compared to your current collection, but there fun cars to drive when you don't want to put too many miles on your money makers....they've already taken close to $100k of depreciation and there's not a million of them on the road.
  12. Congrats man! Can't go wrong with an SV! I'm sure the boys at Prestige were torn seeing this one go.....Enjoy
  13. This could be the 570LT....Just doesn't look radical enough to be the P14 (or at least what envisioned it to look like).
  14. 'Kevin M.' date='May 23 2016, 11:29 AM Good lord that is a beauty! Thanks buddy!... Here's a shot I took last weekend after the carbon fiber mirrors were installed
