Photos of the Day: Pink Lamborghini Gallardo in China Mainland

Pink Lamborghini Gallardo in China Photos of the Day: Pink Lamborghini Gallardo in China Mainland

Just when you think that Paris Hilton has everything in pink, think again. Our two set of photos revealed that there is Asian version of Paris Hilton on China where the anonymous owner custom his Lamborghini Gallardo in pink. Yes, folks… this is how money has no limitation unless you run out of money then everything is limited. But, the pink color somehow doesn’t make the Italian Raging Bull supercar lost its “menacing aura”.

The original post was published by CarNewsChina which reported by autoevolution.com where the pink Gallardo supercar spotted on the intersection of Shanghai road. It is good to know that the custom work on China has feminine side, not only rough one. Unfortunately, we are not sure on which model year of Gallardo that gets special pink treatment.

Almost the whole body of the Lamborghini Gallardo supercar covered in pink color. The owner left the engine cover, the front bumper, and the rims in black color. You see, black and pink can make stunning combination, right? Lamborghini knows that Asia – including China – has been one of the promising markets for supercar manufacturers. Even India already has Ferrari dealership, so it is not that surprising to spot Lamborghini and other supercars rolling around Asian streets.

Just so you know, Lamborghini successfully sold 300 units of supercar in China last year and half of them could be the Gallardo. And again, one of the already sold 300 units of Gallardos could be ended up in China’s local tuning house or aftermarket specialist for new paintjob.

Picture of the Day: Crashed Lamborghini Gallardo

Lamborghini Gallardo Before and After Picture of the Day: Crashed Lamborghini Gallardo

The pictures tell thousands words as you can see for yourself that the white Lamborghini Gallardo supercar was in a bit of wreck during a test drive. Yup… it’s not careless driver, but maybe not-so-fortunate driver.

Before you mix everything up, the reason behind crashing Lamborghini Gallardo was started when a promising customer set his eyes on this white supercar. You know what happen when you have the money and the privilege to buy this kind of supercar?  Test drive, that is. So, this eager and hyper customer took the Gallardo for quick spin.

The salesman was escorted the promising buyer to feel the menacing power of the Lamborghini Gallardo. After sometimes, the customer might be feeling that it’s time to take the supercar for the next level, so he did. He did get panicked for a while and crashed the six-figures supercar on a roadside barrier.

The damage is pretty much severe as you can see on the photo as the part of the front-end of the Lamborghini Gallardo supercar and the right wheel disintegrated from its axle. Lamborghini Sydney Managing Director – Andrew Smith stated, “It appears he panicked – these things happen, “It doesn’t matter as long as no one was doing anything stupid or crazy, and no one was injured.”

We never been to Lamborghini store before, does it have signs like “You Crash It  – You Buy It?” Hopefully after this incident, the store will put sign like that so no other Gallardo will be victim of eager and hyper promising buyers.

Lamborghini Gallardo Caught in Flame

 

Lamborghini Gallardo Caught Fire close up Lamborghini Gallardo Caught in Flame

What would you do if your expensive Lamborghini Gallardo supercar caught in flame? Well, we found out one driver who probably will live his entire memory for toasting his £150,000 Lamborghini Gallardo supercar. The anonymous driver was enjoying a Saturday afternoon, driving his Lamborghini Gallardo supercar with so much pride through the spectacular landscape of the Scottish Highlands. But his drive came to an abrupt halt when smoke started pouring from the engine bay of his blue supercar.

The driver pulled over near a hospital in Fort William and rushed inside to get a fire extinguisher. By the time he came back his Lamborghini Gallardo supercar was like a torch. The only thing left was to “enjoy the show” which we have to mention ended in shortly, reducing the Lamborghini Gallardo supercar to a pile of burned wrecks. Must be devastating to just stood and watched his beloved and pricey Lamborghini Gallardo supercar burnt down in seconds by flame.

“Within two minutes, there was a lick of flames and within five minutes the Lamborghini Gallardo supercar was totally ablaze. The owner just stood by holding his head in his hands. I’ve heard of money to burn but this was ridiculous. It was £150,000(approx. $246000) worth of hand- made art and just went up in flames.” Robbie Jordan was quoted as reported by our UK contributor.

This is the second incident which involves a Lamborghini Gallardo supercar bursting into flames without any apparent cause, after a similar model caught fire while being test-driven by a Norwegian rap star. Probably this is what happens when you take the word “going to burn some rubber” literally. Without a doubt this is not something to joke about, considering that unfortunate events of Lamborghini Gallardo supercar caught on flame seem to appear more often lately.
