Man in China builds Lamborghini for less than 10k
 

:suspicious:

what a waste of time and money

First off; a man in China has built a pile of scrap metal that has a very vague similarity to a Lamborghini, nothing more.

Second off; I would rather spend $9500 on a Civic; I would then have something that's actually road legal, and could not be mistaken for a pile of scrap metal.

Third off; kit cars, with very few exceptions, are foolishly conceived and created contraptions. To quote Enzo Ferrari, “I don't sell cars; I sell engines. The cars I throw in for free since something has to hold the engines in;” a replica of a Ferrari or Lamborghini, regardless of what it's powered by or how similar in appearance the body may be to the original, will never replicate the part of the original that matters most.

Hauling shit with shit

Looks fucking terrible, what a terrible way to spend 10k.

spot on replica,




:ilied:

$9500 for that, huh? I'd rather buy an ok car for $9490 and then buy a 1:10 Scale model of the lambo for $10. :)

Safety concerns? China? :fulloffuck:

why all the h8?

this is some pretty sweet diy from a farmer in the middle of nowhere


doubt it cost him 10k though

arash ain't got nothing on this guy :notbad::fullofwin:

LOLOL looks like shit

assrash would be proud

his influence has extended into the Far East

He basically spent $10,000 to make the replica of the steel exterior frame. He has no idea what goes on in the factory to create the Lamborghini.

If you have an hour, here's the Mega Factory documentary from National Geographic.

Yes twitchyzero looks like his wizardry talents have influenced more then one kit car. http://www.teen-moods.net/forums/ima...sappointed.gif

Gotta ask yourselves, what's the purpose of this news article? It's pointless.

i thought the purpose of the article was to show off some cool DIY projects that cost a lot of $ but still cool to look at. obviously they're not going to pass off as the original but to me it's a pretty neat to see what these guys accomplished.

lotta hate in this thread
props to him for trying

I think it's mostly the thread title/headline that generates the hate.

The man did not build a Lamborghini or anything close to it for less than $10k. The guy built a brutal caricature of a Lamborghini for less than $10k.

A for effort
but butchering art is not taken lightly :ilied:

Agreed..

Such an accurate depiction of Jesus. The resemblance is uncanny.
