A rare Murcielago LP Roadster.
Only 899 made.

Rob Walton feels that guy's pain:



He crashed his Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe. Only 6 made. They estimate his repair bill was $2M.

Yup.
That '65 Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe is valued at $15 million.

" The original price for a 1965 Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe is not definitively stated, but it's known that the Shelby Cobra, in general, cost around $6,000 new in 1965. The Daytona Coupe, being a specialized racing version, would likely have been more expensive. One Daytona Coupe was sold to Jim Russell for $4,500 after its racing career"

The first time I saw one it made an impression on me. I was just a boy. I was with my sister, our cousin and her boyfriend. They were 8-9 years older than me. Probably summer of '62 or '63. We were in Clearlake walking down the main drag, Lakeshore Drive. My cousin's boyfriend points out the Cobra and says, "Holy Smoke, that's a Cobra. That is one b@itchin car!"



*This guy is a friend of my brother in law. I sat next to him at my nephew's wedding a few years back. He is a very nice man.

$350,000 car and the brakes suck, or he had an unqualified driver.

Yet another ignorant post.
You really should learn how to . . .

sorry I missed the event this year.

The Murcilago Roadster while incredibly powerful was viewed as hard to drive due to it's size. Not sure if this was a factor or it was driver error. I always was snarky about Lambos because often you could not see out of the back, but then I read the retort that if you drive a Lambo, you don't have to worry about traffic behind you.

Two cars stopped abruptly in front of the Lambo Roadster LP 640s
A Jaguar F-Pace SVR SUV (owned by the same party* as the Lambo) and a GMC pick-up.

*Daniel Hieh and Codrin Cobzaru, co-founders of Sparq

I usually avoid car week.
100,000 people does not make for much fun.
Just massive traffic jams.

Love Tehama though!
