Shows why Dumbasses don't deserve to own Lambo's or any other car that is worth over $380.00
"Joe Schmo In a Lambo"!!! Ha, ha!
When the temps drop below 40, the supercars go into the garage for the duration...
But, obviously, Joe Schmo does not know... anything! What a dope!
God help us and save our cars from these idiots...

Idiot should have sold it right away. I'm guessing it will go for something more like 70% of it's sticker now. Anyone one to take a guess at what kind of body shop is doing the repairs?

It's really a foolish gift to someone of modest means - the simplest maintenance on an exotic will swamp the average man's budget (mine included).

True. Its also not for the average driver with average skills. They can be tricky to drive. So even those going from Bentley to Lambo end up running off the road.
I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

Rap,
For those who dare to dream...for the 50th anniversay of PCA the factory produced 50 special Carreras with special packaging (Paint, wheels, interior trim, etc.). In all its glory here is #50 of 50 which was drawn by sweepstakes by PCA. I saw this live at a PCA function several years ago.
