Car and Driver Huracan a ringer?
After seeing the crazy quick 0-60 and 1/4 time and trap speed that Car and Driver published in their review and then seeing some videos of the Huracan doing some 1/4 mile runs that aren't close, one has to wonder if the C&D car was a ringer. 2.5 and 10.4 @ 135 mph just seems to good to be true. What do you guys think?

They mentioned all the aspects of the test like what tires did they used, if the car was fully unlocked or not, etc. ?
I hope you guys knew this, but this topic was brought in front by another member -> Hi from England....2015 Verde Mantis Lamborghini Huracan

I personally saw a brand new Hurcan go 10.50s @ 132 Mph. the first time the owner ran it.Stock tires....Yes,they will go this fast if the conditions are correct.I was at the track with my new Turbo S which runs 10.80s stock....I saw the Huracan run and the next day I went and bought a new one.(Very Impressed)I will tell you for sure,the Huracan is faster than my 997 /991 Turbo S...Any 10 second street car is Insane...

I agree it's faster than the 991 Turbo S...which is my daily driver. With launch control, I would have expected times closer and more consistent to what C&D was able to achieve. That said, I remember my Gallardos were definitely quicker with around 3,000 miles on the clock. Perhaps some of these newer cars just need to get some miles on them.

Two members already seemed to confirm it, it probably is. That would be a nice gift after you break the first 1k miles on your H Originally Posted by krutch
