Huracan Performante or 720S?

Picking up a weekend car. Narrowed it down to 2 options. Lamborghini Huracan Performante or McLaren 720S. Very torn between the 2. What you all think?

Macca in a dark color. Seen a few recently and they have a lot more presence than the Huracan (not that the Huracan can really be mistaken for a Jetta or anything.)

Nothing really comes close to the 720 in terms of price and performance, it is definitely the best supercar for the money(and probably best not factoring in money also)

Depends, do you want resale value? Mac is absolutely the worst. Do you admire sound? The lambo is one of THE best sounding cars in the world, the 720 is ok. Do you care about tracking? Lambo wins. Basically the Mac wins only in straight line performance. Looks are subjective.

I'd take the Huracan Performante. The 720 has better performance, but wringing out a NA V10 is more special 95% of the time versus extracting all the performance on a track 5% of the time with the 720.

Yup. It really isn't. I have 3 friends under 30 who are all worth more than $100 million.

Well you posted this question on a message board for people that own $30-80k cars. How many of these people have driven either one of the cars you asked about, let alone both? Have you even driven them yourself? Seems more like a brag post. Just my opinion.

Low limit roller cars.

Pagani, Bugatti, or Koenigsegg. The rest are wannabes.
