The mods are already starting. First up is a ProClip phone holder and custom floor mats by ExotiCare

 

I think a straight up trade on a sto for the roadster is great value. Well done. Spec is pretty sweet

 

Awesome - sto does nothing for me

 

Beautiful

 

That car was floating around Quebec and Ontario for a while before a dealer from Alberta purchased it. Hopefully you got a PDI and a smoking deal.

 

Never owned in Quebec. It was in Toronto for about 2000km

 

Congrats, beautiful car!

Next mod, match the brakes to the interior 😉

 

The calipers will be grey from all the brake dust from me driving it 😜

 

Awesome spec. Big congrats on the new whip

 

Congratulations ! Amazing car, very good condition !

It’s very interesting to read your opinion regarding the STO and the Aventador. I’d also like to add my perspective, since I own a STO and I very recently purchased an Aventador SVJ Roadster.


In fact, everything you criticize about the STO is exactly what I love about it. The fact that the car is so stiff gives it a unique atmosphere. The fact that it’s light, agile, packed with carbon, and especially rear-wheel drive, makes its behavior feel very authentic and razor-sharp. I don’t find all of those qualities in the Aventador SVJ.


With the SVJ, the enjoyment comes in a different way. I’d say it’s more about stimulating your senses than the driving itself. The atmosphere of the V12, the fact that it’s a roadster (so you enjoy even more of the engine sound, the explosions in the exhaust, and the wind rushing through your hair), it’s definitely a very special feeling.


But I could never give up one or the other. To me, they complement each other perfectly. When you want to drive in a more aggressive way, you take the STO. And when you just want to cruise, enjoy the good weather with your wife, you take the Aventador Roadster. That’s how I see it.

When you compare the A to the H they definitely are two very different cars. I think you gave a very good comparison between the two.

 

Congrats Ryan, I wanted to write a thread of how loud the technia is and honestly wasn't looking forward to the replies. I don't mind the exhaust note from time to time but everytime I drive even in strada I feel jiggered. I need a more tame huracan not sure if I should go back to sterrato or evo rwd.

So I can't imagine how the STO feels.

 

Don’t worry about the negative replies, some people on this forum always wake up on the wrong side of the bed and that’s their problem. 9 times out of 10 you will get quality responses, I think you should go ahead and ask your question in the H section and see what replies you get!

 

Congratulations Lambro, she is stunning, love the colour combo and that interior is sexy, yes match up those
brake callipers, they don't look right in yellow.

Enjoy it 😃👍👍👍

Car should arrive tomorrow or Wednesday, then I can check out those brake calipers and see if they are yellow or light orange. I have a feeling I will need to change the color to better suit the interior!

I definitely will enjoy it. Already have two road trips planned for it 👍🏻

 

Congrats on your new ride.

Previously I had a MY13 Aventador and wanted to get a STO.

I ended up with a Aventador SV instead.

Enjoy the V12 !

 

Congrats bro. Love the colour and your options. Its a keeper for sure, they certainly don't make them like they used to.
On a side note, your username sounds familiar. Did you post a lot before in lambo power forum? I was a regular there but I think it just went dead.

 

Yes I used to post lots in the Lambopower forum. I had one of the first ten Heffner TT Gallardos!

 

What ever did happen to lambo Power? it use to be really good in the begging way back from 2011 til 20 then poof, it died

.

 

They were their own worst enemy the way they treated those (with Lamborghinis) outside their inner circle. The demise was well deserved.

 

wow so clean!

 

Beauty!

 

Just over one year ago I bought a 2022 STO and I have just traded it in on a 2014 Aventador Roadster.

The STO was a great car but it just didn’t feel safe, the back end did not feel planted especially at slower speeds. I also hated how hard the suspension was when you hit a bump in the road. My last complaint is that the doors don’t go up lol.

I have always missed my old Aventador SV Roadster so the hunt was on to find another Roadster. I have been watching the market for a long time and the right one popped up and I jumped on it.

My STO had 9,500km and the A-R has 10,100km. The STO needs new rear tires and I ended up doing a straight trade. I did splurge and buy the aftermarket wheels that you see in the pictures as I think they really suit the car.

I don’t usually buy muted color cars but the color combo of Grigio Estoque Metallic and the full orange interior did it for me. It had a great option list that I really liked:

• Alcantara Headliner
• Carbon Speedo Trim
• Carbon Instrument Surrounds
• Carbon Door Handles
• Q Stitching interior
• T-shaped engine cover in carbon fiber
• Transparent engine bonnet
• "Sensonum" premium sound system
• Park assistance (Parking sensors and rear view camera)
• Embroidered Head Rest
• Dione forged rims 20/21 in gloss black
• Factory Sport Exhaust
• Manual
• Car Cover
• Lamborghini Charger
• 2 Keys
• Paint Protection View attachment 359450

Congrats on the purchase...question for you, assume from your writeup you wanted to move to a cruising type experience. How do you compare/contrast that with the Diablo Roadster you own? I have thought about an Aventador Roadster from time to time but always thought what I wanted from it the Diablo already provides.

 

Diablo roadster and STO are not comparable at all, they literally are two completely different cars. The Diablo is Lamborghini, which makes the STO not a Lamborghini in comparison lol.

If you compare the Diablo and Aventador then that’s a different story. The Diablo is RAW and also a stick, it’s a true wedge shape design. Driving the A you instantly feel how Audi has refined the car over two decades, the A can be driven daily. The D cockpit has way more room and feels like your sitting on the ground, forward vision is unreal, the A has a way thicker A pillar and windshield header, also the rake of the windshield makes it feel like your looking out of a mail slot in comparison. Very different sounds between the two. Diablo is deeper and full compared to the higher pitch A. Usability of the tops are about the same but you still have a frunk when the D roof is off so that’s a bonus. Overall as you would expect the Aventador is a better daily driving Supercar. It does not match the raw driving experience of the Diablo and that’s what makes them so unique. Two flagship cars that are worlds different from each other but both will put smiles on your face!

I was referring to the Aventador

 

@rhyno So roughly the going rate for a 2014 Aventador Roadster is roughly $375k USD? Seems like the STO's are leveling out in value and the Aventadors are starting to climb up in value. Great choice!

 

I got a great deal on the STO a year ago and thought a straight trade was totally worth it. If the Aventador goes up in value then that’s great, I plan on putting lots of miles on it!

 

I should also say that my STO was sold in one day. I heard the new owner is in Toronto!

 

Aventador's in Canada have come down from the peak. During the peak, the LP700 roadsters were listed and selling for mid $500k's, now they're down to mid $400's. Coupes are in the mid $300's, 2012 coupes below $300k. I know the yellow coupe listed in Alberta ran through auction last month and the highest it got to was just below $350k.
It's still a fairly expensive car to buy and run.

In the US a LP700 roadster like 2014-15, lower miles, maybe around the $375k point? The S Roadsters look to be maybe $75k more which is a good value for what it brings being newer and better tech

 

She is home, insured, and plated! Went for my first drive this morning and was so happy to be back in a Big V12 Bull. It’s cool to see and feel the differences from the 2014 Roadster to my old 2017 SV. The biggest difference I noticed is the brakes are not as good as the SV. I also noticed that the steering is considerably heavier in Corsa mode compared to the SV. Anyways I gotta get back to driving….

 

Looks amazing, congratulations. Brakes look a lot more orange in your photos! Beauty!

 

The calipers are orange, the same orange that they offered for all Aventadors. Unfortunately it is a lighter orange color than the orange interior. It’s not that bad in person so I will probably just leave them.

 

Looks stunning, dare I say sophisticated in that colour, great choice, the wheels really set it off 🙂👍

.

 

Who would have thought I would buy a car with a boring exterior color lol. I do actually love this color combo and I agree it’s pretty darn sophisticated for me!

 

Warmed up the cars and decided to stage a quick little photoshoot of just the Lambo’s
