    Lamborghini Huracan LP 610-4 / 0-60 mph in 2.3 Seconds!

    Lamborghini Huracan LP 610-4  /  0-60 mph in 2.3 Seconds!

    With current hypercars all going 0-60mph in sub :03 seconds,
    one of the most common questions we hear is "How does a
    VF800 Supercharged Huracan compare?
    ".


    We've answered this before through testing with Motor Trend Magazine
    and with independent Race Logic GPS data, but what's really exciting
    is seeing our customers be able to reproduce those same results
    (and some even better), all on their own!


    I don't know about you, but we think that 2.3 seconds on 91 Octane
    and street tires is pretty darn impressive. So can it go even quicker?
    We're obviously battling physics at this point, but it sure seems possible.

    Can't wait to get my Performante, and then the VF blower setup!! So, in real life, just how fast is the 0-60 before the blower goes on?

    The Performante is not some magical car.

    It's a little bit lighter and a tad more HP, but people are putting it on a "P" pedestal. Just don't understand it.

    Please do that! Honestly except maybe some more int CF mods, an VF supercharger would be the only mod i would consider to a Performante. I would not even dare the change anything to exterior, it's perfect. An VF supercharged Performate is in hypercar territory.

    You haven't read much about it I guess...or you wouldn't be saying that. Which Lambo do you own at present?

    So, why are many dealers calling people on the phone trying to sell their allocations? Why are Perfs languishing for sales on the 'cars for sale sites' for more than 3 weeks with no takers?
    If the car was so great.... They would be snapped up immediately.
    The hype doesn't live up to the reality.

    Like to see the sales data on that because the only ones I've seen for sale are well above full retail. And yes, I have one that just arrived in the US.

    Also the aerodynamics and changes to suspension and handling are the major differences from the original H. Those changes primarily, made the car run the Ring faster than nearly all others.

    The knock on the Perf or the H, are that they are slow in a straight line. BUT, the supercharged versions of the 610 seem largely unbeatable by the likes of stock McLaren's (including the 720), Porsche's (GT3' etc.), and other supercars. They are shockingly fast for an added $35-40k.

    The Perf is a track car - and it already destroys most other cars with higher average velocity through turns. And with a supercharger, it will be a destroyer in a straight line too. What more would an owner want than a car that lays every other car to rest for under $400k?

    Just one man, one opinion.

    Sorry, but "nearly" and "most" doesn't cut the mustard with these supercars. Being close is good in horseshoes and grenades.
    If you want to sell cars for "well over full retail", it better blow everything else into the weeds.
    And, as for adding a supercharger .... there is always someone who can rejigger any car to be faster than the stock version.
    The right way is to compare: Stock vs. Stock.

    Ok, now you're trying to look smart and start controversy. Show me some sales figures that prove this car isn't selling.

    FWIW, like many, I could give a crap about "stock vs. stock." Obviously there's always somebody who has a faster car - that'll get a "no shit Sherlock" response from me. As for the Perf, it has a proven itself on the track - stock. Clearly you have an agenda and chose to stick to your arguments, but it's obvious it wouldn't take much to make this car smoke others on the road, straight line or not.

    Screw it - I'm going to let the VF guys respond. This is pointless.

    Too many people drink Cool Aid ..... Then when you disagree, they want to chew your arm off.
    The Performante is not selling for above MSRP... I've heard some are getting nice deals slightly below.
