LUDICROUS LUXURY CAR FACTS

IF THE LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR FLIPS

UPSIDE DOWN, ON-BOARD EXPLOSIVES

WILL BLOW THE DOORS OFF

WHEN THE FOUNDER OF LAMBORGHINI APPROACHED

ENZO FERRARI ABOUT HELPING TO IMPROVE THEIR

CARS, FERRARI TURNED HIM AWAY BECAUSE AT

THAT TIME LAMBORGHINI WAS JUST MANUFACTURING

SMALL TRACTORS. THIS LED TO THE CREATION OF

LAMBORGHINI AUTOMOBILES

WHEN JAI SINGH, THE MAHARAJA OF ALWAR VISITED

THE ROLLS ROYCE SHOWROOM IN LONDON, THE

SALESMAN IMPLIED HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO AFFORD

THE CAR. INSULTED, HE BOUGHT TEN OF THEM,

SHIPPED THEM BACK TO INDIA, AND HAD THEM USED

FOR GARBAGE COLLECTION

THE BMW M5 ENGINE IS SO QUIET THAT FAKE ENGINE

SOUNDS ARE PLAYED THROUGH THE SPEAKERS SO

AS TO REMIND DRIVERS OF THE VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE

AT ONE POINT, BMW HAD TO RECALL THE GPS

SYSTEM THEY HAD INSTALLED IN THEIR CARS

BECAUSE THEY REALIZED THAT MALE DRIVERS

WOULD NOT TAKE DIRECTIONS FROM A FEMALE VOICE

AT THE TOP SPEED OF 254 MPH, A BUGATTI VEYRON

EMPTIES ITS 26 GALLON TANK IN JUST OVER 10

MINUTES. THAT WORKS OUT TO AN AVERAGE OF

JUST OVER 2 MILES PER GALLON

THE LAMBORGHINI DRIVEN BY BATMAN IN THE

CHRISTOPHER NOLAN TRILOGY IS ACTUALLY A

MURCIELAGO. THAT MEANS "BAT" IN SPANISH

THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IN DUBAI IS STOCKED WITH

LAMBORGHINIS, FERRARIS, AND BENTLEYS SO THAT

THEY CAN CATCH SPEEDERS
