    No, because it was Lamborghini's car! You can't buy them yet - pay attention at the back.

    Yes, you can. They went on sale at the end of May.

    Looks like someone couldn't afford Mercedes' top coupe, and decided to built their own off another one.

    That's the result, when Audi people drive a Lamborghini. Maybe nobody told him that it's not the same to drive an Audi Diesel and a Lambo.
    It was in Austria last weekend. He would get out of a petrol station and hit a tree on the other side of the street. No other cars were involved in this crash.
    Two years ago they presented a black Murcielago during the World Cup Ski races in Kitzbühel, Tyrol. After this event they tried to bring the car back to Vienna on the street to save the costs. The result was the same, the car totally wrecked and the driver more dead as alive.
    Stupid people.

    Not necessarily.

    Perhaps they "popped" out after the crash

    If I'm not mistaken, but I believe the flaps can be opened manually regardless of speed.

    You can open them manually, so that they are open doesn't mean automatically he drove to fast.

    That wacky merc has the same air-filter enclosure that the 107 chassis SL's had, meaning that it's probably a 20-year old engine. If that's the case, I'd say that it's a cheap-n-nasty replica-obscura-sorta. Little wonder it wound up in a salvage heap without being crashed.

    As for the Lambo, well, that's sort of what they're made for. We all know the risks here, I hope. Driving a fast car fast is marginally safer than driving a slow car fast, but speed is often dangerous in its own right. So it goes.
