Lamborghini LP-670 SuperVeloce

Ill Car. It brings Lamborghini back to 

that 1980's-1990's Countach/Diablo

madness. Lamborghinis have been,

with the exception of the Reventon,

on the tame side. Don't get me wrong

they look amazing, but without weird

exposed carbon fiber, ludicrous wings

and chin-splitters. 

There is a story that accompanies this 

too. So, the show was extremely crowded.

Probably in the 400,000's at the expo just

on Saturday. Well, somebody decided it 

would be a grand idea to stick Jaguar,

Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus, Bentley, 

Rolls Royce and Stile Bertone in the 

same room. In true Italian Car Company

fashion, the brands took up twice the 

space as a normal manufacturer to display

two cars with 15 feet of border around 

them. When all these exotic brands are

put together in one room, that 

dramatically reduces the walking spaces

for exhibition goers. Tie this fact in with 

the average Shanghai-ers lover for shiny

expensive things, the room was packed 

solid with people. I was all fine an good

with this fact, just pinballing into the 

crowd and moving slowly around the 

room when something inside me snapped.

All of the pushing on the subways, in stores,

on the street and at the Motor Show got 

to me. I am physically larger than 90% of 

the people, but my up bringing has instilled

in me a courtesy to every human being I 

encounter. It dawned on me that getting

walked on was doing me a disservice as I

would not be getting the full Shanghai

Experience. So, every basketball/football/

hockey lesson I ever received shot out of

me like some uncaged animal. I "Moses-ed"

the sea of Chinese people in front of me and

before I knew it I was front row center for 

a viewing of this magnificent machine.

The scary thing is I sort of got some sick

pleasure out of it.

I look forward to pushing again.
