“Never been into leather… but let’s give it go!!!” 😂😂😂😂 this channel is by far the most entertaining! Sorry to say, I’m so bored of some competitor channels… Sam’s videos just get better and better!!!
@@86RSJag Yeah, all shmee does is repeat himself in his pieces to camera to fill time and that ridiculous laugh and smile that only a mother could love.
In a sea of clearly algorithmic-driven content, daily vlogs, build diaries and reviews you've somehow managed to carve out a real unique mix of content and its become my favourite automative-focused channel. Production quality, honest commentary, the lifestyle elements, longer trips - it's all great. Keep it up man!
Sa, awesome video. But if you say the STS & SC were track version, then for sure the Performante qualifies. In fact, unlike the STS and SC, the Performante actually had a Nurburgring track record title, something not even the STO has. So, just a little love the the Performante please 😎 @seenthroughglass
I really like Sam's style and take on cars vs other car RUclipsr's which are more reviews... Of all the car YTers him and Stradman are the ones I watch the most.
You need to try the EVO RWD, you get all the goodness of the STO in a package that can handle road use and at a lower price. CCB amd 19" wheels recommended for best compliance
Your videos are just getting better and better Sam....... never "Samey" for the sake of getting a video out and never ever a "Churner"....... alot to be said for that buddy.... Thankyou Also....whats going on with the RS6.....has it left the arena
Fyi I'm 6'1" with an EVO RWD Spyder with the Sport seats. Best position is with the base of seat all the way up and then move the seatback back. Super comfy, been able to do 5+ hour stints, no problems after I figured out
Definitely the most desirable pointless supercar on sale today, and another fantastic yet honest review. And the driving footage is brilliant well done Sam👍
The brakes are the main thing I'm still getting used to on the car. They are the most touchy and grabby brakes I've ever experienced. On the first drive, there came moments where just tapping the brakes made me feel like I was going to fly out the windshield haha (well, if I didn't wear seatbelts it probably would!)
I think the STO is the last of the mohicans. NA V10, rear wheel drive and no electric motor of any sorts. They have more than enough power to have fun and less enough to be still drivable. These things are going to be very valuable.
The mid 2000s really was the golden era of supercars. Just enough lunacy to get your adrenaline rushing but civilized enough to live with and that Superleggera embodies that. That gen 1 Gallardo is still beautiful today 15 years on and arguably has a nicer exhaust pitch without the artificially synthesized "pops and bangs". Maybe Im just a traditionalist that way but good lord it's a fabulous machine. And the Huracan is a great successor as well and a bit sad of a curtain call as it makes it's final tribute with 1 more edition coming soon from Lambo before it officially hangs up its cape to welcome the new successor (probably with turbos or electrification).
Nice mid-week video, Sam! Nice to see you out and about with a Lambo. I bet you wish you could be on a LA canyon road like VV. Strangely, he hasn't owned one a in a few years. Ya..too much power for those little English roads. But we should enjoy and cherish them as long as they are with us.
This is just an AMAZING car, I love absolutely love it 🥰❤️ But this exemplifies why I think track only cars aren't the best versions of cars, the best version of cars is a softer, more comfortable, easier to live with car that still delivers most of the excitement! Think more, Huracán Tecnica than STO, more 911 GTS than GT3 (Although I wish the 911 GTS had the engine sound of the GT3) but yeah :)
How many years are we going to hear “This is a dying breed”. I honestly don’t think this type of car will ever die humans love this kinda thing too much. It’s a superhero on wheels!
I've driven right hand drive cars but never have driven on the opposite side of the road in another country I think that would be so weird I think that would be the hardest part for me to get used to I can drive on the right hand side but it would take me a minute to get used to the opposite Lanes
How do you shoot those drone shots? @5:20 it's sick. So much effort goes into these videos. I'm getting so bored of Shmee just filming himself talking in a car. I know he's a good friend and that but your channel deserves so much credit for the effort you put in.
I think it is the duration of Shmee's videos is the problem as they are far too long especially the shmusem video's. They just talk shite too much, all three of them are all just constantly correcting each other.
@@danielthomas8507 Thanks man, that's a good explaination. I appreciate it was a 360 camera or drone. You can buy drones that follow you around so I thought hmmm was it that.
That first road you were on was so narrow , in North America that would be narrow even for a private drive way . What do they call that in the UK , a C road ? Even your B roads are wide enough for 2 cars .
In fairness Sam, and you as a Wiltshire country boy should know this, it is the start of Harvest now, plus grass cutting time, so you are likely to find something big and heavy filling up the lanes!!
Insuring this is genuinely a nightmare. Due to the plastic key to pop the hood, you have many clauses that make it impossible to use. But then, it's already pretty tough to use daily.
I think I prefer the mk1 by a good bit. I think Sam's doing it a disservice saying it's 30 years old looking by comparison. It actually reminds me of the shape, or at least partial modelling, of his 360 in many ways.
I genuinely think it’s such an incredible piece of engineering! But it’s definitely the definition of pushing the limits of what an automotive company can do. It is so compromised and so focused on the track that it really is a one trick pony which makes it incredibly special but also once again compromised. In my opinion, the better buy would be a Performante. Yes it pertains the AWD system however it gains the ALA system and fixes the usability quite a lot. There’s more visibility, there’s the option of comfort seats, and it would be a better car to enjoy taking out although it is not as special as the STO.
If the Gallardo was in Giallo, it would look fantastic, Black doesn't do the lines any favours, its very angular, the paint should play to that. "Try not to frighten the horses".
The 1st vid I ever watched of Sam's was when he was in LA and got thrown the keys to an F12 (my fav car at the time) and was hooning around and he had a line slagging off the F12 cause it was front engine and I thought who is this British prick driving around my American roads talking shit about my favorite car?! I haven't missed a video since and I watched all the ones before that one. Later in the video he loved the F12 and I loved the content. Best British RUclipsr full stop and should have as many followers as my boy Stradman. Lets get him to a million! Subscribe, Comment and Share!
This car is a perfect toy for rich people who already have multiple cars in their collection and practicality or daily driving didn’t even cross their mind when they bought this thing. It’s only purpose is to make you smile when you approach it to go for a ride and to make you feel like a complete hooligan for a moment. If you find a circuit with a smooth surface and no noise limits it will be super fun to trash around with glorious engine noise. That’s why anyone would buy the STO.
Lambo only makes 3 models. How many SPECIAL editions do they make. 1 every 6 months. LP-580, LP 610, LP 640, Evo, Evo rwd, Evo GT, STO, Tecnica. All the above but in spyder form....
“Never been into leather… but let’s give it go!!!” 😂😂😂😂 this channel is by far the most entertaining! Sorry to say, I’m so bored of some competitor channels… Sam’s videos just get better and better!!!
Feel the same. Can’t watch MrJWW/Shmee150 anymore. I hear ‘so ello’ and ‘cheeeeers’ in my nightmares.
Agree 100% He’s the only one I’ll watch every video regardless of topic. Very likeable lad, and with Tony it just works.
@@86RSJag Yeah, all shmee does is repeat himself in his pieces to camera to fill time and that ridiculous laugh and smile that only a mother could love.
He should’ve and would deserve to have hit a million subs by now
That really got me cracking hahahah

Top shelf again Sam. Even with a GT3 on the way and a proud 360 owner, still willing to call it as you see it.
I can't say it enough. STG is top drawer automotive content.
Full marks.
I think that might be my personal favourite review on this channel. Very honest and open about the car but entertaining at the same time
Well done Lambo for making only a few models.
@Maverick It's the same thing when people go on about the urus which is basically a Audi rsq8 with a higher premium lol
@Maverick It's the same thing when people go on about the urus which is basically a Audi rsq8 with a higher premium lol
@Maverick 100k premium for a rebodied Audi no thanks atleast the Sian is limited
@Maverick But the rebodied Aventadors will always hold their value whereas the urus will eventually go down in value
@Maverick Yea I can't disagree with what you wrote the special edition lambos aren't faster than the original tbf
Love Sam! Been a fan from the very beginning! Love it when Tony joins him. Keep up the good work Sam!
STO = future classic no doubt
Sa, awesome video. But if you say the STS & SC were track version, then for sure the Performante qualifies. In fact, unlike the STS and SC, the Performante actually had a Nurburgring track record title, something not even the STO has. So, just a little love the the Performante please 😎 @seenthroughglass
The STO is more insane than the Perf, because the Perf is more of a street car. STO makes you feel like you took delivery of an actual race car.
Lol the guy covering his ears at 11:08 for the Gallardo startup 😂. That thing is brutal and I need one.
What a great review of a car. Reasoned by emotion and not stats or whatever
Paul would be proud and happy
I really like Sam's style and take on cars vs other car RUclipsr's which are more reviews... Of all the car YTers him and Stradman are the ones I watch the most.
Thanks so much for that essential info.
You need to try the EVO RWD, you get all the goodness of the STO in a package that can handle road use and at a lower price. CCB amd 19" wheels recommended for best compliance
That vid cam is also amazing, how it deletes the pole support. Next gen epicness!
Who makes it? It’s epic!
Love that you coordinated your outfit with the interior. Nice touch!
The mk1 Gallardo looks so much better! And the sound is much cleaner
Wow, a subtle spec suits the STOs so much better imo
Smashing as usual! Question, how do you record the exhaust sound when driving about? Is it just coming from the camera in the cabin? Thanks!
In most videos they hang a Go-Pro above the exhaust pipe, they seem to have surprisingly good mics.
Your videos are just getting better and better Sam....... never "Samey" for the sake of getting a video out and never ever a "Churner"....... alot to be said for that buddy.... Thankyou
Also....whats going on with the RS6.....has it left the arena
He sold the RS6, said it on podcast
Great video! Love the bare bones and genuine point of view-very refreshing! This is exactly what keeps me coming back!👍
One of the best videos you've ever made. Your creativity & stying is impeccable. *Chef's Kiss*
That mark 1 engine is so much better sounding, I think it’s gorgeous too
Where is the camera at 5:18 ? It stays with the car very well.
its on a pole that his attached to the car. its called the insta360 camera search it on youtube to see how they make the pole that its on disappear
A lot nicer than Shmee’s Mr Blobby spec
Fyi I'm 6'1" with an EVO RWD Spyder with the Sport seats. Best position is with the base of seat all the way up and then move the seatback back. Super comfy, been able to do 5+ hour stints, no problems after I figured out
Great review, thanks as always Sam
Definitely the most desirable pointless supercar on sale today, and another fantastic yet honest review. And the driving footage is brilliant well done Sam👍
15:25 min - You're Right. 👍 For the racetrack.
But most tracks have sound limits.
The brakes are the main thing I'm still getting used to on the car. They are the most touchy and grabby brakes I've ever experienced. On the first drive, there came moments where just tapping the brakes made me feel like I was going to fly out the windshield haha (well, if I didn't wear seatbelts it probably would!)
Thank you for providing very useful information in this video. I wish you success in your work. all your videos are very interesting.
Great video! Always love the coffee runs!
That thing sounds incredible and looks incredible, too!
That’s soooooo much better without the Halfords sticker set , apparently it’s great to drive, what’s not to like 👍

Drive that road down to Newbury & podium regularly. An epic drive.

Amazing video as always
Enjoyed that - thanks!
Blimey how did you achieve that driving shot looking down on the car from just behind it?
What a car the Huracan has become
Every variant is awesome now
That Grigio Hati looks so on point🤤
Will be driving one in one week from now. Cant wait after your review!
Sam, it would suit the highlands of Scotland (when it’s not raining, foggy or snowing)….so a few days in the highlands each year, it would be 👌🏻
Awesome whip! Great job Sam. STO sounds epic?
Love the content as always. Great style.
I've driven right hand drive cars but never have driven on the opposite side of the road in another country I think that would be so weird I think that would be the hardest part for me to get used to I can drive on the right hand side but it would take me a minute to get used to the opposite Lanes
Is the roof scoop functional?
it's funny seeing a road i cycle on in a STG video, I knew it looked familiar hahah
"The CAR is DRIVING me. I am NOT driving the CAR." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

i believe its a ariel connected to the car that is digitally erased so it can't be seen....it's cool eh?
Its not a drone shot, its done using an insta 360 camera attached to the car
I think it is the duration of Shmee's videos is the problem as they are far too long especially the shmusem video's. They just talk shite too much, all three of them are all just constantly correcting each other.
its a 360 degree camera not a drone
@@danielthomas8507 Thanks man, that's a good explaination. I appreciate it was a 360 camera or drone. You can buy drones that follow you around so I thought hmmm was it that.
I owned the SL for over 10 years great car wish I still had it ..;
Nice 'mid-weeker' vid Sam. Thanks! 😁👍
Wow I love this spec OMG!!! I'm really done with the chalk color on Porsches but damn baby this looks da bomb!
I agree! I ordered my 991.2 in Chalk and by the time it arrived I hated the color and had it wrapped Arctic White.
@@1nstantClassic exactly
That first road you were on was so narrow , in North America that would be narrow even for a private drive way . What do they call that in the UK , a C road ? Even your B roads are wide enough for 2 cars .
Yeah that’d be a C road here in uk. I’m not surprised he ended up finding a tractor 😂
Thanks Sam

Wooow what a lovely spec
The Gallardo superleggera sounds almost lika a Carerra GT 👀
Two CH -53’s passing over whilst you filmed. I’m guessing you were near one of the US bases in Suffolk filming this.
I a huracan STO visit us at work this week. and oh god that thing is so insanely loud, camera does not do it justice one bit.
I think I prefer the mk1 by a good bit. I think Sam's doing it a disservice saying it's 30 years old looking by comparison. It actually reminds me of the shape, or at least partial modelling, of his 360 in many ways.
I always like the Balboni that was a sweet spot for me
Sam’s content is getting better and better.
Thank You for all of your videos that you did.
Nice G-SHOCK sam !!!
Another great vid
And you have finally seen the light
I suspect the Tecnica is the sweetspot, and would eliminate most of your gripes about the STO 🤔
Seen Through Omoligato

It just looks so aggresive 🔥🔥
What a bonkers car. Should have taken it from Marlborough over the downs to Broad Hinton 😉
Gallardo looks thirty years older than a Huracan? No man, no. That Gallardo is still fresh and contemporary to me.
thats my dream car i love that car SO MUCH❤😍
Sam you almost fell into Passionate about Lambo's then, great video though, nice and entertaining buddy
@14:29 Sounds miles better
Pointless as this car is - it’s looks like the most exhilarating car on the market. Rate the video Sam! Great content as always mate!
Which G-Shock is that? Giving the Speedmasters a break?
Wish supercars still sounded as good as that Gallardo
My 8 year olds whole body exploded! WHAT??!,! when he saw it. 😂
Drove past you this morning in Putney around 8:10…… got rid of the RS6 for a x340i in similar green spec!???
16:10 mate, if you push the STO in switzerland, we will take your car, license and money 🇨🇭😂
It‘s possible to have a good spec for a STO? i thought you have to go overboard with the complementary colours....
Sam has such a funny sense of humor. If you're not already subscribed you should also like and comment too.
Totally agree 👍 👏 sam
