Not Your Find of the Day: the $5 Lamborghini

[See image gallery at www.vwvortex.com]

Have you always wanted a Lamborghini, but just couldn’t afford one? Well, want no more. Even the most humbly budgeted of car enthusiasts can now afford this fiery bull, because it only costs $5. Admittedly, though, that might still be more than it’s worth.

That’s because although this was once a 5.0-liter V10-powered Huracan, this particular example went full Lamborghini and caught fire, leaving little more than four bent wheels and the outline of seats.

The damage is so extensive that, if it wasn’t for the seats, you’d hardly be able to tell which direction this car was supposed to move in.

The car is from Louisiana and the seller has helpfully pointed out that it won’t start, so that might put you off. Honestly, it seems like all you’d get for your $5 is a pretty big pile of garbage to get rid of.

On the other hand, it could be worth $5 and your afternoon (plus however much the dump charges you) to be able to say that you’ve owned a Lamborghini. Or, with April Fools’ Day coming up, this could be the perfect time to buy your 16-year-old child their first car. Sure, it may damage your relationship with them, but on the other hand you could film it and go viral. Just remember to give us a shout out in your video.

Whatever the case, take a look at the posting for yourself at iaai.com.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
