Nice. How was the drive? I got into a handful of exotics last summer. I drove the Ferrari 488 GTB, BUT i preferred the Lamborghini Huracan Performante a lot more! :manual:
Very lacklustre as it was only in electric mode just to move it :lol: but i have been out for a ride in an assetto fiorano one and the only way to describe it was being in a plane thats taking off but you're just still on the ground.
Ive driven a handfull of 488's and i really quite like them, also got to sit in the 296 GTB, VERY nice cabin and seating position :drool:

I had the same experience with the 488, though I had full power but limited straights ;) Too polished, too cushy for me. On the other hand, the Lambo was balls to the wall, a GREAT weekend driver!

Space does come at a premium... I just added a massive custom cabinet, enough for 300+ cars

Hmmm... Oh well, I should have thought of that before I made my latest purchase, which is rather large.

This arrived yesterday.

It goes well with my other Daytonas & replaces a pretty horrid HW version.
