VIDEO: Driver Smacks Lamborghini Gallardo on Curve, Blames Broken Shoe Heel

A twin-turbocharged Lamborghini Gallardo tuned by Underground Racing received an unwanted...facelift when the driver smashed the Italian supercar on a curve at the Caffeine and Octane event in Georgia this past weekend. A forum member who appears to be a friend of the car’s owner uploaded several photos and a description of the crash over at the Car Lounge.

According to the post, the blame is put on the driver’s shoe heels that “came loose and as he stepped on the brakes, the loose part stayed partially on the gas”. A set of videos showing the crash as it happened as well as the aftermath, which translates in a broken rear suspension, wheel damage and some minor body scruffs, also made their way online. You can watch them right after the break.

VIDEOS: New Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Spotted at the Vallelunga Race Track

Yes, it’s another set of videos of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4, but we're not complaining. This time, the Raging Bull supercar was caught at the Autodromo Vallelunga Piero Taruffi racing circuit just outside of Rome, Italy. Unfortunately, the three clips are quite short – up to 12 seconds each, but at least we get a taste of the 700-horsepower V12 engine’s sounds. Watch them after the jump.

VIDEO: Disgruntled Lamborghini Owner Hires People to Destroy his Gallardo!

If you haven’t heard, March 15 is World Consumer Rights Day. So what a better way to celebrate the day if not by expressing discontent with poor customer service? At least that's what a Lamborghini Gallardo owner from China chose to do, with his shocking protest having every chance to cause reactions as far away as Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy.

We all have our unfortunate experiences as consumers, but I think none of us would have the heart to do what this man did. After his Lamborghini Gallardo failed to function following a service at an official Lamborghini workshop, he decided to protest in public.

And what was his idea of a protest, we hear you ask? Brace yourselves - he hired people to destroy the sports car with hammers right in front of a large audience in the city of Qingdao, China, in an attempt to provoke public support and to determine the manufacturer to respect his consumer rights!

Lamborghini LP700-4: Two-Minute Long Video Looks Completely Official

With the Geneva show just around the corner, it seems that Lamborghini has secretly released a new video of its Murcielago supercar replacement, which is expected to be called Aventador or Jota LP700-4 and will bow at the Geneva Salon next March.
