Lamborghini Murcielago with chrome finish

As the old adage goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words". But we don't have much to say about this Murcielago. We'll leave it to you. Can you spot the location?

[UPDATE] Correction, it's not actual chrome finish or polished aluminum, but even worse - adhesive foil/wrap with chrome finish. Thanks J.

I would expect to find this in Russia or California...can't say I recognize the locale though. How much weight does this add to the car?

It's people like this that you lose all respect for that side of the world. Ruining perfectly good cars and spending money like it going out of fashion while parts of the country starve.

Someone needs to put a foot to ass on them.

So it's wrong to buy a Murcielago and chrome it up because some people are starving? How effing idiotic can you get. So you're probably happy, living your middle-class or whatever lifestyle and you don't think some starving kid in Africa who doesn't have a home won't have anything to say about that. Man, grow up. It's his money. He does whatever the hell he wants with it and doesn't need you or anyone else for that matter to tell him what to do with it.

well it does the job, turning heads that is... as exemplified by the picture.

If this was to get one scratch, the owner would be effed up big time!

its adhesive foil wrap... not the REAL chrome finish we find in the middle east hahhaha

November 13, 2009 6:27 PM

Yeah buying a car worth more than my house thats o.k., but if you chrome it, thats overboard. A Honda is a perfectly good car. Your mad cause its chrome? Your angry their are people starving, and your definitiopn of "a perfectly good car" is one that has as much horsepower as a city bus, and two seats; but no chrome. 90% of this website is about things that 99.99% of the world can't afford, and if it weren't for capitalism, wouldn't exist.

Even the "matt finished" ones, really? I would have never thought that

I suppose chrome-effect cars work quite well in UAE area...

At 2.15 mph, the Lambo surreptitiously stalks its prey -- the camera phone wielding tourist.

what a shameless act to do to such a beautiful car. what kind of asshole does that

The whole thing might not be photoshopped, but the guy stuck halfway in the Range Rover behind the Lamborghini certainly is

great observation... maybe he´s behind the car, but looks photoshopped

eurocarfan

November 13, 2009 10:28 PM

To further exemplify the poor taste shown here, the guy didn't even pay the extra price to chrome the wheels... Atleast he can see by his reflection how much of a prick he is every time he walks up to this car.

I like it personally, but it makes you look like you are desperate for attention, which is a bit sad in a way.

Why is everybody here getting so worked up..it's his money and he can do whatever the hell he wants with it.

I think it looks really nice, wouldn't mind one of these.

Thankfully it's only foil. That means it's properly painted underneath. Calm down everyone.

LOLz at the rims not being chromed out.

veesix

November 15, 2009 2:51 PM

It doesn't look like it's photoshopped. Why are there so many head turns if this Lambo differs to other LP640 Roadster.

Children in africa, prick for not chroming the rims.. enough allready! It looks awfull, and btw foil now a days is as good as paint, and it doesn't only look good, but protects the original paint. Win-win situation if you ask me! If you would like your yellow Lamborghini Murcielago chromed out, without loosing as much market price when you are going to sell it again it's a really great deal to use foil!

XtremeMaC01

November 15, 2009 9:55 PM

really? foil? that's cheap for a murcig.

bILLIONAIRE

November 15, 2009 11:56 PM

I don't know where you are from. But the price for fullbody foil here in Norway is about half the price of a full body paintjob.. And that is not cheap..

XtremeMaC01

November 16, 2009 6:38 PM

dude i'm saying its cheap for murcielago..

Riding outside Harrod's in a foil-wrapped Lamborghini Murcielago? Proof, if needed, that class is inborn not acquired.
