You might have a rough morning but at least you’re not waking up as the guy that just spent this on a 10 year old FF.

If you are looking for a perfectly reliable, well-maintained, trouble-free Lamborghini at a staggeringly low price from a motivated seller; look no further:

PSA: I am hearing from multiple sources that a huge percentage of Lamborghini Urus & Huracan odometers are being rolled back with easy to install & use software. Factory computers can detect it so be sure to have any car you are looking at inspected.

The selling prices of the Porsches at the @rmsothebys White Collection Auction were beyond insane. 911R (991) - $1.1M 993 GT2 - $2.4M 996 GT2 - $400k 997 GT2 - $417k 991 GT2 RS - $1M 918 - $3.9M ... The cars were all top-tier but each of these is double the retail market.

Lamborghini built 14,022 Gallardos and 11,465 Aventadors. Given the number that will have been totaled, is it safe to say that Gallardos are more rare?

Quick PSA: there are a crazy number of car scams going around right now using COVID as an excuse for “almost too good to be true” pricing. Buy cars in person or from dealers big and old enough you don’t have to check them out.

In the 90s, Donald Trump borrowed some new cars from Lamborghini and proceeded to tell them that he was too famous to have to return them. Somehow that seems to have worked for him.
