Lamborghini Monday: My "Other" Car Is…

When you’re coming down from a 130-mph run in a Gallardo, maybe it’s not the best time to fill out a survey. Call me giddy, but the questionnaire we were given after our Lambo road tests on Monday cracked me the hell up. The query "Which cars do you currently own?" only offered checkbox options for Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari, Maserati, Mercedes AMG (regular old Mercedes didn’t make the list, take note), Porsche, and (ahem) "Other." Okay, I get that you have to be rich to buy a Lambo—after a down payment of 25 grand on one of these babies, you’re still smacked with a $3500/month car payment, not to mention insurance and maintenance costs—but damn, that’s the most disdainful set of scare quotes I’ve ever seen around a word! "Other." I couldn’t help but laugh and feel like a poor dirtball as I prattled on about my Escorts and my Eagle after listing them under the despised category. A close second was question 20, "Your current occupation." You get to choose from Professional, Managing Director or Senior Company Director, Entrepreneur, Athlete, or Artist. What, no Rock Star? I guess that goes under Artist, but come on. More pics after the jump, and check out our blogs on the drive here and here and here!
