Here's A Lamborghini Huracan You'll Actually Be Able To Afford
I’m the first to admit that some of our used car picks from the classifieds are beyond the means of many. For instance, while £60,000 for a 996 Porsche 911 GT3 is good value, I know few of you have the cash to go out and buy such a beast. But, here’s a used supercar which you’ll almost certainly be able to afford. The catch? Err, there’s not a whole lot left.
It was a Lamborghini Huracan, before being razed to the ground in a catastrophic fire. The IAAI auction page has been picked up by various car outlets, probably because it’s not often you see such a thing up for grabs. Quite what you’d be able to salvage from it other than some charred mementos, we’re not sure.
Amusingly, the Huracan - located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana - has an estimated repair cost of $5 listed. The advert also mentions that the “Vehicle Won’t Start”. You don’t say?
You might have actually seen this car before. We’re pretty certain the car belonged to a chap called David Mahler, who found himself on the receiving end of death threats after taking a job from New Orleans city council to take down various Confederate flags from monuments last year. After his 2014 Huracan was torched in a suspected arson attack, he cancelled his contract with the city, fearing further reprisals against himself and his family.

I honestly think the only salvageable part may be the rear section of the exhaust…. The inside lips of all 4 wheels have melted!!
I’m still confused as to how they got it to the salvage yard, did they use a vacuum to move most of it rather than a low loader?
The auction better throw in a pair of driving gloves as standard…
Lol I live in BR and I never heard about this
$10,000 for a 4 rims. Lol.
What’s the mileage?
You can take the frame of the seats, at least the back of it.
How much for the wheels?….wait……wheels didn’t make it.
i think , i can buy the engine block then repair/rebuilt it and swap it into other car lol
You could probably still use the rims, tbh
Ain’t that what they call, Murphy’s law?
