Sold The Huracan for a 911 turbo s
Even though I haven't been posting a lot, I still figured I'd post this. I got the Huracan back in October and traded it last week with over 2k miles. I don't like just looking at cars in the garage, I want to drive them. I know a lot of people went from a 911 turbo s or 458 to the Huracan. I'm not saying one is necessarily better than the other. My preference right now is the turbo s. Its fast, more comfortable and a better weekly driver. I was sick of everyone taking pictures, video taping me, and I couldn't drive it to certain places. Most people can't tell the difference between a 80k Porsche and a 200k one which is good if you have employees...
Another big point was my dealership. I've had to take it back a few times for recalls and I hated the fact they didn't give loaners or pick it up. Busy folks don't have time to get a ride from someone else and I hated paying out of pocket to tow it there. I don't need a lambo as a loaner, I'd be fine with a chevy, honda, toyota, hyundai, jeep, whatever as long as it did the job. I had to go back 3 times for the same recall since the right part didn't come in, the part came in damaged, or so on. Not a service I expect when buying a 280k car. All my local Audi's, Mercedes, Bmw, Range Rover, and even Toyota dealerships all give out loaners. Haven't been to Porsche service yet, but I was told they do to. Also the lambo dealership offered me less for my Huracan then the Porsche dealer and another high end dealership. I was even trying to buy a used 911 turbo s that they had and found better numbers for both cars somewhere else. Amazing how a dealership can ruin a whole car experience and leave a bad taste in your mouth. I never even got a leather pouch for the books that come with the car or the model that other buyers got.
This is my first Porsche and I'm very impressed with it so far. It might not have the "wow" factor but its a very nice car and I think is just as fast as the Huracan. I LOVE having a sunroof again and a great stereo system plus the fact they key recognizes you and you don't need to take it out of your pocket for it to realize your there. I also scored points cause my kid can sit in the back when needed. I was thinking of getting a 458 spider but the dealer is run by the same dealership as the lambo dealership which isn't going to work for me.
Thinking of picking up a 2016 z06 to go with the 911 turbo s for the same money as the Huracan
