    Default Cruise without a happy ending

    I just found these old pics. on my iPhone and thought I'll just share

    I was at a friends house on a nice day and we decided to go on a Lambo cruise, so we called up 2 other friends and went for it...

    First checkpoint was a Burger King, where we logically took over the parking lot



    Our lunch table



    From left to right:
    Gallardo by BF Performance, Murcié with Hamman wheels and a stock Murcié Roadster




    And then came the big bang....Whilst heading down the Autobahn ramp, there was a slight dip in which the driver of the black Murcíe had to brake hard due to a much slower car pulling out right in front of him. The braking caused the cars rear to loose gripe and slide out. The driver corrected, but due to the big aftermarket wheels, which did grind whilst we pulled the car out of the garage before, the front lip ripped off and the car lost its aerodynamics resulting in this:



    No one was hurt and we all still had a hell of a good time!

    Oh poor Murci. Glad no one was hurt.

    BTW never thought Lambo doors would look this awful on a Lamborghini (orange G) - http://i53.tinypic.com/ve9fn5.jpg

    It looks like there might have been some snow on the road.

    those were big rims. look like 20 or bigger. glad to see no one got hurt.

    murci's composite body makes repairs super expensive. i hope the insurance covered it.

    No, it is an aftermarket kit that has been installed. In order for the doors to open, they have to move outward a fair amount and then go up.... Thats why it looks weird...

    Yupp! Very true! The car was totaled due to frame damage.....But the owner got a brand new LP 560 shortly after from his parents, so no "big deal" for him
