    I was considering buying an Aventador end of last year, came really close to getting one. I saw Huracan on the floor and asked dealer to get a test drive, he told me: if you drive the Huracan right now, you will not buy the Aventador. Thats exactly what happened!

    Aventador is a fat pig - handling not good, feels slower than Huracan, terrible tranny, feels massive on the road and no door pockets to put stuff. It does have a magnificent presence, scissor doors and I kinda like the exhaust note but that's about it.

    Huracan is an upgrade in my book!

    Why is Aventador slower if it's more expensive? Visually the Aventador looks meaner, but it's still a two seater so what advantages do you get to pay a few 100k more for an Aventador over Huracan.

    But how do you convince a dealer for a test drive? Would pulling up in an M3 Lime Rock convince them I have the money? Or should I show them a bank statement that has more than $200k?

    I've driven a Huracan before so I know what the car feels like. Plus the rental guy was willing to let me take this car on the freeway which he says he usually doesn't do if I wanted a 2nd run, but he offered the freeway because he trusted me. The instructor never got concerned and was fine with the way I was driving it, even though it was the first time taking a Lamborghini on public streets. First time I drove the Gallardo, I spun in out on a turn in a coned course.
