Royalty Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 AWESOME!!! I'm not sure if Lamborghini of Newport Beach or Lamborghini or Beverley Hills have it or not. I'm going to have to check. Beautiful Lambo though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NB might have it. http://www.lambonb.com/models/current-models/huracan-lp-610-4-spyder/ Yeah, I love the Huracan though. My favorite Lamborghini's of all time. It would be cool to see a Huracan Spyder get sent to Underground Racing to get tuned up. T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Jolla (pronounced La Hoya) is a nice area in San Diego crackling noise is little explosions- When they are hauling butt - they will shoot fire out the exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason S. Global Moderator Posted February 4, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted February 4, 2016 i understand that an engine is containing the explosions of gasoline, but why do those crackles happen then? really nice looking car, but Lamborghini isnt my type of thing.

When you come off throttle (or the ignition is cut during a gear change in a dual clutch gearbox-equipped car) unburnt fuel is dropped into the exhaust manifold where it ignites. In modern cars it is an engineered effect to make the car sound sporty. T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason S. Global Moderator Posted February 5, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2016 So it's not a requirement or a problem, but just something for effect? That sounds like a waste... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a waste... It's just small amounts of unburnt fuel combusting in the exhaust system. It's not a problem with the car at all. It sounds amazing to most people (especially car enthusiasts), and some car manufacturers do this intentionally to get this effect. Jaguar F Type is pretty notorious for this! If this sounds like a waste, you're the type of person who wants a vehicle for driving from point A to B, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with this. Everyone has different hobbies and interests. I would personally pay extra for exhaust systems that do this. T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason S. Global Moderator Posted February 5, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2016 you'd actually pay extra for that noise? interesting. i dont really mind the small amount of waste. the car is beautiful! i just dont like the crackling noise. thats all.

Some people like certain engine/exhaust soundtracks, some do not. It's more popular than you think...several car manufacturers actually pipe engine and exhaust noise into the cabin via speakers. I love the sound the Gen Coupe made. It also did the same thing as the Lambo does but not as loud. Same thing with my Mustang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMW and Ford are doing it for sure on their small displacement sports cars. Not sure which others. I personally find it distasteful and misleading.

Yep, as a car enthusiast, I think it sounds better than a regular exhaust. I had a BMW 3 series that I traded, and it made these burble noises w/ stock exhaust. It wasn't pronounced unless you got the sport exhaust from BMW, or an aftermarket exhaust. It also didn't pipe in the fake exhaust into the cabin via speakers Inside the car, the sounds were pretty insulated though. Same thing with my Mustang, it's pretty quiet for a v8, and it unfortunately doesn't make these burble noises w/ stock exhaust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3X4S Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 The engine compartment of the Aventador is amazing - so much better than this. LED lights all the way around the engine compartment - with a clear top - so 24/7 one can glance "under her skirt" and see all the wondrous magic that makes everyone go crazy. Not taking away anything from this - but my fiance's coworker has an Aventador (anesthesiologist) and I love the slight glow in the parking lot @ night.

How much "tuning" does a Lambo require beyond slapping some gfx on it and putting some ZMAXX in the gas tank? This and the Revention are my favorite Lambos T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3X4S Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 1 minute ago, Jason S. said: you get a ride in that Aventador yet? No, just talked to him one night when he was getting out. Really nice guy, I think he was just impressed I knew what it was, and didnt make some silly comment like "gee mister - you must be rich !" He was really cool, talked about how he hasnt had a chance to really open it up, but said he wanted one from the 1st time he saw one - and he was happy to own one - I was shocked he was so.... normal. But - no, I haven't even stuck my head in it - There are a lot of really nice cars around town, most of the time when I am talking to the driver - and try to play it cool, ask some technical questions, and maybe make a joke or two - but inside Im like a kid. *side note* One day I was getting gas back when I had my Titan. A Vanquish pulled in and was just amazing - I could have peed myself in broad daylight and nobody would have noticed. While we were both filling up, I said to the owner - "Even trade - straight up - my Titan for your Vanquish" - he goes, "Deal ! Lets do it !" we both smiled, and I told him his car was beautiful - For 1 year I was driving my father's GT-R (he got hurt and couldnt drive it) - when I had that out - it was much easier to hop in other nice cars, talk to the owners on a personal level, share rides, share stories - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason S. Global Moderator Posted February 5, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2016 What's a Titan? i used to know someone, also a Dr, that had a Tesla. It was really neat to talk to him about it. Totally humble and not some pompous ass. Of course he added the ubiquitous "we should go out for a drive sometime!" but of course we never did.

I had no idea they can now be equipped with a Cummins diesel! I took a ride in a gt-r nismo a month or so back, my buddy Summit1g (im sure some gamers here will recognize the name) had one delivered and man that thing was fun. G37 is nice, another friend picked up the ipl model a few months back. Just get a tesla already T3X4S! T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
