I've rented it, and found out pretty quickly how terrible exotic cars are for commuting. It's extremely frustrating in traffic, and how shitty would that be to hate traffic even more after dropping $300k? I got some compliments, but I don't think it would be worth $300k just to have people say nice car. Unless this car can get attention from the right people who can help you become more successful maybe it would be worth the drop.
But just going by the "you only live once" idea is just stupid. These cars aren't made for commuting, they're machines that an average driver has no experience on handling. I still don't even trust myself completely driving this type of car, so I try being on my A game when I do rent them, because this isn't a car to fuck around with.
I think I may prefer an experienced person to drive it and ride as a passenger, too much having that responsibility. I think the BMW i8 was the most comfortable exotic looking car I've driven. It's still uncomfortable and inconvinient, but it's more tolerable if you're going for the super car look. Not saying it's bad to buy one, but I hope people who do buy one realize these are not easy cars to drive. Everything that makes this car cool and eye catching is an inconvenience to the driver who has to tame this beast with bad blind spots.
I also sat in a Ford GT I saw on the road. That car has worse blind spots than the Huracan.
