Crashed Murcie in NZ

These supercars just aren't faring too well lately. People need to realize driving these isn't like going down the boulevard in a Honda hatchback.

Ehh. . . well at least it is salvagable. Maybe for parts?

:shock:

I've seen many crashed Lambos but... these pics really make me sad...
I'm thinkig that every car is UNIQUE... and this one will no longer exist :cry:

Pic nr.5 is the best

ouch it hurts :( :?

these car really is unique :P

The damage doesn't look too bad...I'd take the engine at the very least. 8) :D :P

really too sad, especially if you think it may have happened during a test drive... http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys2/23.gif

It always hearts me to see such a car destroyed... I like no one of these pics!!

I think its fantastic, it would be a fantastic car in that condition if the price were right. Not many cars have i seen that I would leave stock and unmolested, this one included. If the car was still straight and engine still running id take it the damage looks 80 percent cosmetic. Like that enzo with the crashed front passenger side, it was gobbled up by someone quickly!!

If you think of it a slightly smashed lambo would be an excellent toy or project car for the playboy extrordenaire.

End of the road for $400,000 Lamborghini
16 November 2005
By ANNA CHALMERS AND TOM FITZSIMONS

Voted the world's most beautiful supercar, a rare Lamborghini Murcielago – worth more than $400,000 – suffered a tragic fate when it smashed into a power pole.

The female driver was heading through the upmarket Auckland suburb of Parnell about 7.45am yesterday when the car crashed, police said.

The silver-coloured luxury Italian sportscar – a 2002 version of Lamborghini's flagship model – was one of only about 10 in New Zealand.

It was not known if the driver was speeding. She was taken to Auckland Hospital with moderate injuries.

The car's previous owner, Mark Granger, sold it privately just 10 days earlier, but it would "not be going anywhere in a hurry now", he said.

News of the crash also reached Auckland car dealership Independent Prestige. Lamborghini brand manager Greg Brinck said he was familiar with the car and surprised it had crashed. "Judging by where it occurred, it's almost like something untoward happened. . . . they certainly don't crash very often."

The Murcielago is a 580-horsepower, 4WD vehicle with a V12 engine that can reach speeds of more than 330km/h.

A used model can sell for $400,000 or more and brand new it could fetch about $500,000.
