I like it! The look is a bit extreme but fitting for a Lamborghini. I think the drive would be epic.

and why do they show going clockwise around daytona?? that threw me from the very beginning. as a marketing person, that just struck me as wrong and possibly uninformed, which i know they are not. odd.

Im interested. I have no relationship with the closest dealer and he told me owning a lambo now would “boost my chances” of a allocation(buy one now, then wait for STO). Told him not interested in anything aside from this car right now.

Anyone have experience getting a allocation on one of these? Don’t think there limited and two year build cycle from what I’ve gathered.

The dealer I called acted like it wasn’t an issue for me to get one and never even asked me about prior ownership. Not sure if they were blowing smoke or not. I guess I’ll find out. I’m currently number 6 on their list.

Welcome to the world of decent dealership behavior. No game playing and nonsensical priorities for the most part. You buy what you want in general. Never looked back and consider me a total brand supporter. I abandoned Porsche because of the nonsense and constant inability to get what I wanted. Many years to try to get an RS new after multiple GT3 new purchases. Nothing but crickets and nonsensical overpay for ADM. I took my ADM premium and put it into 2 premium top tier vehicles. Still follow the GT3 models, but when the well keeps drying up with that kind of behavior it's time to find an improved well.

I noticed the launch car has a black roof, engine cover, and even the hood between the hood vents and windshield is painted black. However, the configurator doesn’t show this as an option. I think that really looks good, but unfortunately will probably end up being AdP for a lot more money.

Mine will be here Q3/Q4. My dealer told me that he stopped taking deposits, as he is well past having more committed parties than likely allocations. He went on to describe the difficult conversations he’s had over previous customers frustrated that they are not able to get an allocation. Not sure on my spec yet, but I thinking something stealthy similar to this.

Still on the fence but I think the magnesium wheels are a must, and can only be ordered in bronze (unless possible through their customization program?). I think the decals are a bit silly so simple black with all the exposed carbon options ticked would be my leading choice.

I love this look. Exterior carbon is a must in my opinion.

I also think every car should be ordered with the SC pack, as it gives you the light wheels, telemetry, fire extinguisher, and (fingers crossed) the titanium roll bar.
Since these wheels are magnesium, I would be careful about switching colors (aftermarket), unless you get that color from the factory. They are actually priced very well for what they are.
