Today couldn’t have been more perfect, sunny, warm, and the kind of weather that practically begs you to hit the Swiss mountain passes. So that’s exactly what I did. First up was the iconic Gotthardpass, followed by the dramatic climbs of Furka and Grimsel, and I wrapped it all up with a run over the stunning Sustenpass.

Along the way, the roads were alive with the sound of horsepower. I came across all kinds of eye candy, McLarens, Aston Martins, Ferraris, you name it. But one group really stood out: a Dutch crew spotted high up on the Grimselpass, far from their flat homeland.
It was the kind of lineup that made you stop and stare. Some of the cars we’ve seen before in the Netherlands, like the striking yellow Ferrari 458 Speciale, a red F12berlinetta, a white-and-red Porsche 911R, and the black BMW M4 G82 Coupé Competition x Kith. But there was one standout that hasn’t been spotted back home, a stealthy matte grey Lamborghini Huracán LP640-4 Performante.

It’s always fascinating to follow the journey of these supercars and see the places they end up. There’s something surreal about seeing these machines, usually spotted on the flat roads of the Netherlands, now carving through the tight, winding turns of the Swiss Alps, nearly 800 kilometers from home. It just goes to show that car culture knows no borders.
