3 ruined Mustangs, a ruined Lambo, and one expensive toy someone loved so much they decided to sell it within a year?

as far as 'impressive'? not so much to me...the most impressive car Ive ever seen was also a lamborghini- anyone that hasnt seen the one the guy BUILT completely by hand in his basement? if not check this out- it will blow you away:

This statement scares me. It's actually instinct to look away and do so quickly. Then you gouge out your eyeballs and burn them for posterity.

The car is hideous. I'm with Tim. The basement Lambo was way more impressive.

What do you get when you drop a Lambo V12 into a 2007 Mustang and an idiot with no taste and too much money?

Fixed


Lets get the torches and the pitchforks.

When it comes to Mustang + Supercar engine only the Aston powered Mustang is awesome

Would've been a hell of a lot cooler if they would've kept the Mustang back end.

If I had that sort of cash I'd keep the Lambo and drop a 427 into the Mustang.

I big bucket of fail...

That looks like $600,000 or so worth of cars and fabrication (probably more) to have a vehicle worth maybe $90,000 with a salvage title and no form of warranty. . . different is not always good.

That is an abomination.

That time and money could have fed a lot of children - and avoided creating a rolling visual offense at the same time.
