My review of a £20,000 Lamborghini Murcielago replica:
Sleek. Flamboyant. Orange.* It looks like a Murcielago, but only costs a fraction of the price. The question everyone is asking is - does it drive like one?
With 0 bhp, 0 lb-ft of torque, no drive train, no electrical system, and no place for a driver to sit, the answer is, shockingly, no.
Despite being quite light without.... internal parts, in a drag race against limestone erosion, the Murcielago lost. 0-60 mph times are still being recorded, but estimates are "infinity." It does not corner well, because it can't move. Our tame racing driver has been standing near it making fast car noises for 3 weeks and still hasn't completed a lap.
This car is a total disappointment, and deserves to be smashed on stage by an extra in a rap routine.
For £20,000, you'd be better off buying a new freezer for your house. If you need personal transportation for your money, consider a horse.

Excellent review. Except that it's orange, not yellow. Everything else is accurate.
Thank you! I appreciate your contribution to journalistic integrity.
I’m sorry, but rap artist boycotting materialism is hypocritical considering that all of them are about the bling. Soooo.....
No its actually only the commercial that has all that crap in it. Look up jon wayne on you tube, black thought etc....yes real hip hop is out there...
I was talking about rap, not hip hop
It was the wrong side up..
Hi congratulations - your post has been selected by DriveTribe Lifestyle Ambassador for promotion on the DriveTribe homepage.
I thought it was a real used Lamborghini they were destroying. Who makes these replicas they look so close to the actual car it's based on.
