Watch a London Cyclist Intentionally Cut Off a Lamborghini Aventador


To say some Londoners hate supercar drivers who enjoy revving their V12 engines and sprinting on the city’s streets is an understatement. If you watched the documentary we covered earlier this year, you know how some London residents feel about the so-called "supercar invasion". Read more »

Italdesign Exec Walks Us Around the Parcour Concept and Drives it On- and Off-Road


The Italdesign Parcour was in my book, one of the more striking to look at concepts of the 2013 Geneva motor show, where it also debuted. Featuring a mid-mounted Lamborghini V10 out of the Gallardo, it offers supercar styling, but with a higher than normal ground clearance and all-wheel drive.

Now, if you thought it was merely a show car, which needed to be wheeled into and out of the back of trucks between shows, think again.

Oops, They Did it Again: Plum-Flavored Lamborghini Aventador Replica in China


Before you sprout something nasty about Chinese replica makers after seeing these photos of a purple-colored Lamborghini Aventador wannabe, one should keep in mind that over the years, we've seen a great number of supercar clones from countries all over the world, but mostly, from the good ol' US of A

With that of out the way, let's see what we have here. Well, for starters, the spotter tells us it was purportedly photographed in the city of Neijiang in southeastern China and that it obviously apes the design of the V12-motivated Aventador.

EVO Drives Classic Lamborghini Espada Through France


The Lamborghini Espada, built for exactly ten years, starting in 1968, was never intended to be a sharp-driving supercar, being more suited to carrying people and some of their bags in comfort and at great speed, if necessary.

For me that had something to do with the way it looked, and in particular the design of the rear, which appeared to have been enlarged for extra boot capacity – it is a more practical sports car, then.

Scoop: Is This the Successor to the Lamborghini Gallardo, the New Cabrera?


It was only this week that we learned about Lamborghini's plans to preview a replacement for the 10 year old (!) and very successful with more than 10,000 examples built to date, Gallardo, at the forthcoming Frankfurt Motor Show in the beginning of September with a concept, reportedly named Carbrera.

Now, we have a set of scoops shots that are said to be of a prototype of that supercar and which were brought to our attention (and hosted) by the Italian site Carpassion.

Rare Lamborghini Sesto Elemento Let Loose On the Track


The Sesto Elemento represents what Lamborghini does best – cars which look outrageous and also sound phenomenal too. Sure, over the years, they’ve refined their style considerably and some of their models aren’t as daring as they could have been, especially since going under the tutelage of Audi, but when it comes to concepts, they always get people talking.

In fact, the flat black Sesto Elemento got so many people talking that it is now no longer a concept, but also an ultra-exclusive toy for 20 very lucky owners.

First Official Video of 2014 Need for Speed Movie


Over the past few months, we've seen photographs (scoops, if you will), and even a couple of videos from the film sets of the Need for Speed movie, which is scheduled for release in March 2014, but they were all shot by fans, nothing official, until earlier today, when Ford shared a picture of the hero car, a specially designed, wide-body 2013 Mustang.

If that picture got your engines running, then the first official video from the makers of the movie will surely hit some high revs.

After Two Years in Production, Lamborghini Builds 2,000th Aventador


Despite being a hugely expensive car that is out of reach for most gearheads in the world, the Lamborghin iAventador has been a big hit since its 2011 launch. This week, the Sant'Agata Bolognese-based manufacturer announced the manufacturing of the 2,000th example of the Aventador, a Nero Nemesis car, which is destined for an unnamed U.S. executive who already owns a Gallardo 550-2 Sypder.

Supercar Spotter Sees 11 Lamborghini Aventadors in London in Two Hours!


One could be forgiven for thinking the Lamborghini Aventador is a car made by a UK-based automaker, if he or she were to pass through the more exclusive of London’s neighborhoods. It could occur to some that rich Brits are buying these wide and low two-seaters as somewhat of a patriotic act, showing their support for local businesses and ideas – but it isn’t. Read more »

Lamborghini, Ferrari and Other Luxury Cars go up in Flames on Thai Trailer [w/Video]


Here's a story that's being making the news rounds in Thailand today, and all for good reason, because, while it's not uncommon for exotic supercars to catch fire on the road individually, having four of them turned into useless scrap metal on a transport trailer is a rare occasion, to say the least.

Yet it happened on a road in the resort district of Pak Chong, Nakhon Ratchasima, in Thailand when a fire that is said to have started on a BMW, which spread on a Lamborghini Mucilageo and then onto a Ferrari F430 and a Bentley Continental. A motorist from the opposite lane purportedly alerted the driver of the truck about the fire.

Adam Carrolla Explains Why He Doesn’t Drive His Rare Cars on Public Roads


Believe it or not, having a collection of rare and expensive cars can be a pain to run. Ask Adam Carrolla, the comedian who happens to own a pair of Lamborghini Miuras, among other cool classic cars. Carrolla says that he doesn’t drive his cars on public streets because he doesn’t like the attention and because of L.A.’s “crazy, uninsured drivers.”

Isn’t he talking about the same city where Jay Leno uses to drive his very rare cars? Well, yes, but Carrolla describes himself as the exact opposite of Jay Leno. “If you drive a Miura or some other flashy car on the street, people will look at you. And I don’t like the attention,” Carrolla tells eBay Motors.

Young Ukrainian Women Experience First World Problems with Lamborghini Gallardo


You just can't trust Italian exotic supercars. When they're not catching on fire, they're breaking down…Well, even though we're trying to make a joke out of this situation, there is at least some truth in the above statements, as Lamborghini and Ferrari sports cars were never really designed to be used as daily drivers.

Ouch…Kim Kardashian’s Gates Too Fast for Kanye West’s Lamborghini Aventador


We don’t usually cover celebrities, but this time we just had to. You’ll understand when you’ll watch the video below, courtesy of TMZ. But don’t open it just yet. The story behind it is that Kanye West had a friend drive his $750,000 (according to TMZ, so take that price with a grain of salt) Lamborghini Aventador back from service to the mansion of his girlfriend and the mother of his soon-to-be born child, Kim Kardashian.
