To many, supercars are the kind of things that dreams are made of. They are vehicles that are highly coveted and people from all walks of life dream of owning one at least once in their lives. But in the case of this Taiwanese man, his dream turned into a nightmare pretty fast.
According to a Mirror report, the Taiwanese man's Lamborghini, a limited edition Lamborghini Murcielago Superveloce, was ripped apart by Taiwanese officials because it was allegedly using fake number plates. The car is priced at a cool Dh1.3 million (280,000 British pounds)
A mechanical claw was used to crush the Lamborghini right in front of the owner's eyes as a crowd of onlookers gathered to watch the supercar being mangled beyond recognition.
The Murcielago SV is the track oriented-variant of the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640. The car saw a limited production run of only 186 cars before Lamborghini made room for the production of the Lamborghini Aventador.
Here are some videos of the car getting decimated taken from two different angles.
