Recently, the gold Lamborghini Aventador seen in the Mission prompted people to quickly switch to camera mode on their phones to catch a glimpse of the gold-plated machine and show everyone on their feeds that they have spotted this exoticar.
It made the rounds on the streets and it made the rounds on social media.
I bet, however, you’ve walked by this golden Aventador on Capp St., more often than you think and your eye is just not trained to see it. Enjoy!
I’m sure the money used to buy and gold wrap the Lambo was earned the old fashioned way.
A few weeks ago, I was walking past the Whole Foods in Noe Valley when I saw this parked on the street outside. I couldn’t believe my eyes–it looks like an insect that has been spray painted gold. This may well be the ugliest car I have seen in my life.
And before anyone can say I’m just jealous–if I had $300,000 to spend on a car–well, I wouldn’t spend $300,000 on a depreciating asset. But if I could afford a ridiculously expensive car, it would be a refurbished and well maintained classic. A Jaguar perhaps.
But props to the dealer who foisted this monstrosity on the owner. P.T. Barnum was right–and we are overrun with fools. But those of us who can take advantage of them, should!
Probably can afford a $400,000 car because he has rent control. The landlord probably drives a Honda Civic and this guy lives like a king. Get rid of rent control
Corny. Shit, I barely park my car on the street, much less something worth that much…but…the newbie will learn.
