Easily the best looking Lamborghini in the current range, not too bonkers yet not too plain. Plus you don't come across as a total tool because it doesn't cost the earth. I saw one in the flesh the other day, looked amazing without being in your face.

I would say Cool.

is this supposed to be pronounced "hurricane"?

It's pronounced "Huh-ra-can"
 
Additional Info
Replaces the flagship Gallardo. Since the end of 2014, more than 1200 Huracáns were produced.

Nope. The Gallardo was not Lambo's flagship (the Murci was), and neither is the Huracán (the Aventador is).

As for the car, this is a rare super car that gets the cool nod from me.

It's better-looking than its larger sibling (as was the Gallardo). It's also much, much better-looking than what Ferrari has been doing lately with the 458 and 488. In fact, I'd almost call the Huracán beautiful, a word unfit for any Lambo since the Miura.

That this baby Lambo now shares more in common with it's R8 cousin than ever before doesn't hurt, either. Not only is it great to look at, but it's probably also the most competent Lamborghini ever? I'm sold.
 
To be brutally honest, I never really liked the Gallardo. This though is everything that the Gallardo should have been. Envied XONE owners that they got it before everyone else in FH2, but now that it's in DC, caning it around Maplewood in the rain is one of the sweetest feelings I've felt. SZ.
 
On one hand: cool-looking extravagant V10-powered baby Lambo. Only available in outrageous colors if the official promo material is to be believed. It's a very competent platform, perhaps the most competent in its weight class - as the victory of the GT3 car in its first outing serves to prove.

On the other hand: 4wd, designed by Germans, and driven by tards who are too rich for their own good.

It all balances out to a cool.
 
Pro: It's not an ultra-limited edition million dollar Lamborghini, like those sold to speculators who keep them in humidity-controller air-conditioned garages.

Con: It's not quite as outrageous as those same limited edition Lamborghinis.

Meh.

It's probably the first modern Lamborghini I've actually wanted to drive for a long time (aside from the Balboni-edition Gallardo), but it's still a poseur-mobile.
