SANTAQUIN, Utah - Dave Dopp, Frito Lays truck driver won a  $300,000 Lamborghini in a contest - only he’s more comfortable behind the wheel of a long-haul truck than a Lamborghini. Dopp won the Lamborghini in a contest and crashed the car a mere six hours after picking it up.

He said he was taking friends and family on joy rides that evening on the outskirts of town. He said he took a curve at 40 or 50 mph when the vehicle hit ice or loose gravel and started spinning.

Dopp wasn’t injured, but his wife said she was shocked psychologically.

“My heart pretty much fell out,” Annette Dopp says. “They said they were OK. Then, you know, that feeling when your heart drops and you’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh. What do we do now?”‘

The 640-horsepower Lamborghini has front-end damage, a punctured wheel and scratches along the passenger side. The vehicle is in fact insured.

David Dopp said it was strange seeing the flashy, exotic car in his humble driveway. He told ABC 4 in Salt Lake City that he plans to sell the vehicle to pay off bills and buy his wife another car — as soon as the Lamborghini’s drivable again.

“It’s going to be all nice and pretty here in a couple of months, I’m sure,” David Dopp said.

Robert Himler, proud owner of a 1250HP Twin-Turbo Lamborghini Gallardo, shows off his sweet ride in this video. If you are unaware who he is, his most notable videos was his mother riding in his Gallardo. Himler’s latest video trades her shrieking for better sound of the sonorous force-fed V10, which pops a hot party trick at the end.

California-based Symbolic Motor Car has received the first Grigio Estoque Lamborghini LP700-4 Aventador. The car was delivered to their showroom last week and left to the customer hours later. The car itself is just a hybrid between a Lamborghini Estoque and the brand new Aventador.

No modifications have been made to the interior.

For those who are into 3D-animation and Lamborghini, you might enjoy this one. 3D-animation artist Jiri Adamec shows off his latest short film he created for the 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. The project was approached as if it were an animated Lamborghini advertisement. If you take a look at a sample Lamborghini advertisement you can see a resemblance by the way it was created, with the sound track and intense ‘adrenaline’.

Let’s just say Lamborghini just resigned the word amazing. Introducing the 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo 550-2 Spyder: the latest Lamborghini to the family.

The LP550-2 Spyder features the same 405kW 5.2-litre V10 engine the standard, though it loses some performance owing to structural reinforcements that compensate for the loss of a fixed roof, which don’t worry many.

The result sees the Spyder scales at 1520kg, bringing acceleration down from a blistering quick 3.9 seconds for the 0-62 MPH sprint to a still-indecently-fast 4.2 seconds. Top speed is 198 MPH.

Lamborghini has yet to release pricing or on-sale date info.

Here we have it, once again, one of the most disgusting Lamborghinis which made existence by the famed, Jon Olsson. If some of the older fans recall, Jon also ruined his Murcielago way back last year. Apart from the failure towards the design, he did a brilliant job inside the vehicle.

Dubbed the Ski Transporter, Jon’s Lamborghini gets a snow camouflage vinyl wrap from Autostripe, a DMC-modified front end with an extra GT3 lip and one of the most important features, winter tires and a custom roof box.

What makes this car absolutely insane? He can fit three people, plus his entire ski equipment collection. If you have no idea how much space ski equipment takes, you can try Google.

One of the harsh downsides to this car is it only tops 158 MPH, a good 44 MPH below the pre-set high speed. Not such a surprise considering all the cargo.

[VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA] This is by far one of the most amazing finishes I’ve seen. Exotic car racer John White went crazy and decided to continue racing despite being in flames. The competition itself wasn’t extremely competitive considering he still got first place with a 10 second lead. If you really think about it, if this was against serious, competitive racers, he would’ve been by far out of the race.

Last weekend at what seems to be a classic illegal street racing gathering in Stockholm, an anonymous Swedish jumped the Lamborghini, shown in the video. The Lamborghini, from what I’ve noticed is a Lamborghini Gallardo, it doesn’t appeal to me as a Murcielago or any other model. It is unknown if this was an act of courage, foolishness, or stupidity.

For one thing, kudos to the man who decided to do it.

Lamborghini will make their decision by the end of 2011 if they will add a four-door sedan or SUV to their line-up. In the past they were considering the Estoque but were unable to take it to the cut. Due to demand from China and other emerging super markets the third model to be sold alongside the Aventador and Gallardo supercars will be most likely a SUV, sources say.

This right here is a Lamborghini Gallardo by Famous Auto Sports. To start off, this beast is fitted with an LP560-4 Style bumper, stripes/decals throughout the car, and a large spoiler. Although I am unsure what the top speed of it is, I could guarantee an easy 200+ MPH on a freeway.

Credit goes to Youtuber 30SecondCarMasta for filming this beast. You can view it here.
