Nice model. I'd still rather have an R8 V10 over the Huracán with the same engine.
I've driven R8 V10 and Huracán Performante. The R8 is refined and slightly boring next to the Performante. The Performante was raw and loud! The Audi is great daily driver while the other is a weekend track car :manual:
Very lucky! Driven both on a track or roads? I have never driven either of them, but based almost entirely on the fact that the R8 is a more "subtle" version of the Huracán is why I'd prefer it. Track use might be a different story...

It was on the road. Drove these and others for 30 minutes each. Best experience in exotics ever. May do it again soon! 6-hour experience UE:

Very cool! I would be interested in seeing what we have for exotic car rentals in my area. Last I looked into it I was on a trip in Hawaii, on a whim I almost rented a Gallardo until they wanted a $6,000 hold on my credit card as insurance. :o

LOL, I can buy a lot of models for 6K! UE, cost me about $500. It was highly rated based on their reviews and comments from friends... I think you need to plan a trip to Toronto ;)

Nice F1! Can't say I've ever seen a non-LM version in that color before.

Here is my entire GT3 collection in 1/18 scale to date (not including RS models). I am glad that every single 911 GT3 ever has not only been made in scale form, but all of these models here have opening parts, too.

It is indeed Gulf Blue, great model too. Minichamps nailed it with the release of the 991 GT3s, with each trim level released in many color options. Thankfully Norev is continuing that trend with the 992 GT3.
