tx for the answer. due to the price tag I always thought most of the people that afford it, can afford to buy one as well.

I guess you pay a lot of insurance. have you had any problems like 'spoiled kid rents a murcielago, wrecks on the first corner?' or some fun/weird stories? (needless to say the whole business of owning such cars must be fun :) maybe you could do an AMA on reddit)



NP :) Yep, we've actually had that _exact_ scenario (though I suppose it's not terribly surprising, but funny that you got it exactly correct). Dumb kid (over 21, but still a kid) from CT rented a Murcielago to show off, made it about 10 minutes and this happened:

I recall someone did a similar AMA a few years ago, but indeed, maybe it's time for another one.


haha :) ouch. I don't know why I particularily mentioned the Murci, maybe because I remember a similar story on wreckedexotics website (borrows from dad, the rest is obvious). I also recall TopGear describing this Lambo as particularily safe but only to a certain point after which it spins you to a certain crash. Yet I somehow expect more noob wreckages from RWDs.
