I kinda disagree with some of you all if he is using actually working what he does and uses the GTR for what he says he does, which is meeting clients. IMO based solely on the fact of winning them over with the look of " Hey look at what I drive, I must be successfull and know what I am doing with your money", get a Ferrari or Aston Martin.

Lambo's IMO or for people that have more money than sense and kinda come across that you live in the fast lane which if I was a potential client with have some second guesses with giving you money to invest with. Dont get me wrong I would take one, but I think from a more, I want to look successful but not come across as money reckless, the Ferrari's and Martin's come across as more educated and refined.

I would either go with a 599 or a 458. I would even toss around the idea of a Virage or a DBS.

You seem to already have a dedicated track car and a dedicated DD.

Hell even a couple year old DB9 with a mansory kit on it would easily get you the super rare look too. Saw one in person earlier this year at a car show and every girl or guy was drooling over it. It was black on black with HRE's and was absolutely gorgeous. Was saying the kit was right around $25k unpainted.

Something like those mentioned gets you the super rare exotic look but also can meet the rare clients that know a thing or two about cars. But the cars I mentioned new are also above what you are looking to spend on the Lambo with the price you gave. Maybe any of those used would get you close to $175k.

Ninja edit:

After looking up the price for a LP550-2, they are listed for around $225k for a 2012 so I am going to guess you are buying used so in that case I still stand behind finding one of the ones I listed used also. Should be somewhere close in price range.

At the end of the day though, it is your choice to make.
