That just hurts. The rollover bars are interesting though.

Glad no one was seriously injured, especially no one at the car wash.

i think so, although i think he needs to be in more pain. he needs discpline for wrecking a LP640.

Needs a wake up call if you ask me. Lucky mom and pop weren't out at the ol' car wash and standing nearby. No excuse for behavior like that on a public road. Money doesn't equal sense in his case. He ought to be walking or riding public transit from here out.

I donno about you, but I don't really want my life depending upon some sketchy Italian wiring job, especially when the item it is supposed to fire, doesn't really ever get cycled.

I also wonder what fires them, explosive? Pneumatic?
Lambo is now owned by Audi, therefore their cars are basically German engineered cars with an Italian name - so that "sketchy" wiring job you're describing is in fact a concrete German wiring job...

Yeah, until your gas flap won't open.

German wiring? Umm...I am the biggest VW fanboy and there wiring is brutal, hell most manufacturers have ****ty wiring.

Makes the car look sleeker, and I see they worked here, but just seems a bit sketch.

wow, that's sad. Beautiful car; sounds like a real jack a** driver though. If a Lamborghini made me bleed my own head blood i would be doing more than crying.

I was also wondering what was behind the head rest; thanks for the clarification. Seems like a cool idea, but I would prefer something solid that doesn't need to be activated in split seconds when things start to go sour regardless of how good the technology is.
