Lamborghini SCV12 and the A pillar
 
My reason for this post is not so much the car but the view out the front and the A pillar. The camera seems to be close to where a person's pov would be.
I think the view out the front looks quite claustrophobic.
Yeah, I know A pillars have to be where they are for safety reasons but this looks quite extreme.
Your thoughts?

i've always thought that lamborghini makes beautiful looking cars, and beautiful sounding cars. they've never been known for excellent handling cars.

Big improvements in handling with the Huracan. Especially the Performante. Leaps and bounds ahead of previous cars like the Gallardo, Murcielago, and Diablo.

The Huracan is excellent, especially the steering (haven't tried a H Perf yet). Best attempt by Lamborghini so far when it comes to handling. The Gallardo felt floaty (and dated) by comparison (except for the G Performante), not even fair to compare them. Haven't driven a V12 Lambo yet, but I hear the driving experience isn't centered around the handling department. :lol:

That being said, I think the 458 as an overall package still edges out the Huracan. Unreal machine and has all the ingredients that makes a Ferrari a Ferrari.

The 86 / BRZ has comparable steering to what I felt in the 458, so props to our cars!

But the visibility out the front?

Huracan's A-pillar wasn't nearly that massive -- I'm guessing there's a cage built into that.

But visibility is similar to what you're seeing. The Huracan's windshield feels like an ultra-wide monitor and the dash is pretty long... probably longer than my Honda Fit's. :lol:

Doesn't look any worse then the twins to me. I find myself looking "through" the A-piller a lot at the track.
