What do you guys think of my Lamborghini STO order?

Eternalthinker · 02-09-2021, 01:40 AM

Finalizing my configuration and came down to this. Will likely take delivery Fall of this year

x622 · 02-09-2021, 02:04 AM

I'm looking at this and a 765LT, what made you go with this? I haven't decided but I was curious about your thought process. If I do a hurcan I'm gonna mod the shit out of it.

AlexFL · 02-09-2021, 02:05 AM

Looks very nice! You should go for it!

To TT mod, I would just buy the base Huracan. STO is too special for that.

I am just waiting for the 765LTS. The STO is the last NA V10 from Lambo.

Thanks! I like it, but also looking at 2 other colors. Will be looking at color plates this coming weekend.

stein_325i · 02-09-2021, 09:48 AM

Personally not a fan of the primary color. I don't mind the yellow accents though. What two other colors you looking at?

Darth One · 02-09-2021, 10:11 AM

I personally don't like the accents. The STO is already a busy-looking car because of all the lines, vents and body features. The yellow accents further break up the body, distract the eye, and create IMO a visual mess.

I know Lamborghinis are supposed to look loud and bold, which is fine, but in this case I think it crosses the line into incoherent. It would be great with a single color and no loud exterior accents

Maitre_Absolut · 02-09-2021, 10:16 AM

I think it screams look at me much like this thread!

rcracin · 02-09-2021, 10:20 AM

I don’t understand why the ricer term never seems to apply to high end cars. If somebody painted the trims on their honda civic a bright offsetting color, we’d all want to puke.

That yellow looks hideous.

Humdizzle · 02-09-2021, 10:50 AM

bit too over the top for me. i do like the base huracan styling though.

me personally i'd probably do a classic lamborghini orange color with black accents. verde draco with black accents would also look pretty sinister.

Because a Civic is an econo car by nature.

GenXer · 02-09-2021, 11:48 AM

My sincere apologies for offending anyone but the additional bodywork and color scheme look like it was designed by an 8 year old.

Germanauto · 02-09-2021, 11:57 AM

That's hot. The more showy the better!

TSM330i · 02-09-2021, 12:20 PM

I'd do a white base car with orange or green trim.
A friend of mine had a mantis green Performante Spyder and sold it for a white Performante Spyder. I didn't think the white would look better, but it does!

Currently also contemplating Cepheus Blu or Amaranto (deep red). Being the last variant of the Huracan and this being a track focused car with number plates, I do plan on a contrast color. Next gen will be hybrids, which I am not a fan of.

The white would look really good with the Italian colors on the trim areas. Actually crossed my mind, but I do not want to replicate what was already done. I have probably several months to make changes, but once the factory is re-opened for customers, will head there to go through the full Ad Personam options.

See5 · 02-09-2021, 12:36 PM

Needs more Verde Mantis!

Alfisti · 02-09-2021, 12:56 PM

I wonder if the opposite works here, a brighter base colour with darker accents? Like say a lightish blue with black accents?

robertm · 02-09-2021, 02:19 PM

The car is insane looking in whatever color combo you choose! My only gripe with the color choice is at first glance it makes me think it's an emergency vehicle or pace car or something to that effect. If it wasn't yellow I don't think that's what would jump into my mind Just my impression since you asked.

I love the blue, red is also very nice. I personally think a brighter color fits this vehicle than a matte gray, in my opinion.

I'm a bit biased because all my cars are black or dark gray, even the small sporty ones, but I think this is a great contrast combo. black/yellow or black/red always look great in real life, not just on configurator pics.
