I actually doubt the difference is big

Lamborghinis have sharp edges everywhere on their styling, this is not beneficial for low drag but doesn’t even add a lot of downforce. A 911 Turbo S has a drag coefficient of 0.31, a Lamborghini Huracan 610-4 of 0.33. The general shape of a car is less important than the detail solutions. For example an Opel Calibra has a drag coefficient of just 0.26, despite being subjectively less sleek than a 911.

Also keep in mind that adding wings and air intakes and stuff like that increases the drag a lot. In most cases, performance cars have a higher drag coefficient than their normal counterparts. A step further, a current F1 car is around 1.2, which is higher than a bus (0.6 - 0.8) and also higher than a Ford Model T (0.9ish).

It’s important to say that drag coefficient only tells half the story though. The frontal area of the vehicle is just as important. The Lamborghini is lower, yes, but considerably wider than the Porsche so I doubt that there will be too much of a difference.
