Imagine being sick of losing thousands on a Porsche sports car, and deciding to spend seven figures on two Lamborghini supercars instead.

That is what George Saliba has done, deciding to get a Lamborghini Huracán STO instead of his Porsche 911 GT3 Touring.

On the face of it, that seems like an odd strategy, given that a Porsche is a cheaper car than a Lambo, and it might cost less to repair if something goes wrong.

But it’s clear from the video that he has had a lot of issues with the Porsche, hence the desire to swap it for a Lamborghini, which then becomes two..

This is why Saliba swapped the Porsche for a Lamborghini Huracán STO

Saliba bought the Lamborghini as an investment, rather than something he planned to keep for a long time.

He explained that he’d had the Porsche GT3 for around a year but had been struggling to sell it.

In fact, it was costing him an extra $20,000 just to make sure someone took it off his hands.

When he invested in the Porsche, he had expected some appreciation in value, but it’s gone the opposite way.

At the time of writing, Lamborghini Huracán STO supercars are fetching good money, and it appears to be going up.

“These things have been skyrocketing in value right now,” said Saliba.

“I’m going to be holding this car for a year.”

So in a year, Saliba is hoping to sell the Lamborghini for more cash.

Towards the end of the video, he even negotiated for a Lamborghini Revuelto as well.

Again, the plan is to keep that and sell it for extra profit.

What supercars are holding their value in 2026?

Some supercars, naturally, hold their value better than others.

For example, according to Curated, the Bugatti Veyron has consistently held a high value.

Some Grand Sport Vitesse examples fetch between $2 million and $6 million at auctions.

Even the 2005-2006 Ford GT has held its value well, standing at around $300,000 on average.

Some, however, depreciate quite a lot.

The 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S from the 991-generation can often be picked up for less than $100,000.

Classic.com currently lists the average price for the model at $108,222.

Even the fabled Dodge Viper SRT-10, the second-gen model, has fared badly.

Priced at up to $100,000 when new, Bring a Trailer has seen them listed for below $50,000.

So, not every investment you make can turn out to be a good one.
