Lamborghini Aventadors As Air Freight
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: YouTube ::: Lamborghini Aventador by Air
ANYONE who has researched shipping a car abroad knows just what a dicey proposition the process can be. Needless to say, you’re far better served sending your baby by air than by sea.
Of course, one if by air is on its face far more costly. That said, if you’ve paid $387K for a Lamborghini Aventador, another $20K for air shipment here or there makes next to no fiscal difference and saves time. And if time equals money, then getting your Lambo there in 48 hours instead of 4 weeks saves a bundle.
This video shows part of the process of shipping cars as air freight. Interesting stuff for those who’ve ever wondered about the logistics of shipping cars by airplane; let alone minty fresh Lamborghinis.
Aventador: Morning Run With The Bulls
Ciao, Aventadori!
Grazie Roma! Lamborghinis New and Vintage Gather In The Eternal City
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: YouTube ::: Lamborghinis in Rome
IN person, this had to be a sight. A gathering of raging bulls in the Italian capital this past July. We see the impossibly sculptural and piping hot Aventadors (so many in one place!) coupled with beauties of the past – a yellow Miura SV and a copper Diablo, both catch your eye. Check the Cavalieri in their own Gallardo @ 2:04. Pity that the sound quality isn’t better – but – we’ll take what we can get.
Grand cars parading on an even grander stage.
eBay: Lamborghini Gallardo In Arancio Borealis
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: img via eBay ::: 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo
WHY is it that anything said or written in Italian is instantly rendered 1) exotic b) sexy iii) desirable beyond all else?
You could advertise the paint trim on this 2011 Gallardo as simply “pearl orange” as another eBay lister has done. But when you include the words arancio borealis in the description – matched with a leather interior trimmed in nero perseus, you’ve managed to combine the Italian with the mythical which transforms what would be just another Lamborghini classified on eBay into quite possibly a biblical offer.
Hot car Macchina calda!
Lamborghini Gallardo v. Corvette Z06
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: YouTube ::: Corvette v. Lamborghini
ALRIGHT these street racing “X versus Y” videos that abound on YouTube are anything but scientific. But in real world driving where reflexes count for everything and 0-60 matters much less than, say, 60-110, the truth is less cut ‘n dry. In this clip, we have a yellow Gallardo by Lamborghini and a surprisingly understated Corvette Z06 finished in silver that pull alongside each other on some US highway. The spirit of competition moves them and…
Any wager on which sports car pulls away in the sprint?
Counting Countachs At Glastonbury
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: img Richard Wolf for ADLX ::: Lamborghini Countach
FOUR hundred and twenty horsepower is a lot by any standard but it was titanic power circa 1988 when Lamborghini rolled out the final iteration of the Countach line – the 25th Anniversary. Six hundred fifty were made between ’88 and ’90. And our own Richard Wolf spied one this past weekend…
Lambo Promo: Aventador LP700-4
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: YouTube ::: Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4
IN this heavily CGI’d film, the basic gist from Lambo is this: if you need a supercar to face down the end of days, the Aventador LP700-4 is your Italian rocket into oblivion. For all other occasions, you may consider the Aventador as relentlessly over-the-top.
Japanese Living Room Fit For A Countach

IF there’s one aspect that Lamborghini owners across this round globe of ours share – in spades – its a certain knack for exhibitionism.
Pulling Away From A Lambo In A Ferrari 458
by Gunnar Heinrich ::: YouTube ::: Ferrari 458 Italia v. Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggra
AS super-legal road races go, dropping the hammer on the Ferrari 458 Italia against the F430′s raging nemesis – the Lamborghini Gallardo (in Superleggra) has to be a thrill. Not that this thrill always translates well to camera, but in this video the shooters and editor have done a good enough job for YouTube standards. Needless to say, the 458 armed with the latest arsenal in Ferrari engineering and technology pulls briskly away from Gallardo on multiple tries. The bull is left merely to rage in the 458′s dust.
