This holiday season, you could deep fry your feast-day turkey, potentially lighting yourself and your house on fire. Or you could follow the example of Shmee150, and roast it with the fiery exhaust of your Lamborghini Aventador instead. Sure, the result is likely to be a bit under-done and petrochemical-coated, but if there's a more awesome way of cooking a turkey, we don't know what it is. ALSO SEE: Crowdfunded Full-Size Lego Hot Rod Runs On Air: Video The Aventador you see in this video isn't any regular old Lamborghini, however. It's the black-chrome-wrapped, orange-Alcanta-interiored...

2015 Lamborghini Huracán (Gallardo Replacement) Spy Shots
The Lamborghini Gallardo has lived a very long life, first hitting the streets a decade ago in 2003. It's due for a replacement, and this is it: the Huracan. Or is it the Cabrera? We'll know for sure soon enough. Huracan is the current best guess at the Gallardo replacement's name these days...

Lamborghini is back with a new video teasing its supercar destined to replace the Gallardo, which recently ceased production. Expected to be called the Cabrera or Huracan or perhaps something else entirely, the new supercar should be revealed soon as suggested by the title of the latest teaser video, Getting Closer. The video is the third from Lamborghini’s strange Hexagon Project marketing campaign. The first tease was of the sound of the new car’s exhaust note, which isn’t an unusual teaser for the type of high-performance cars you expect from a brand like Lamborghini. But...

Bye Bye Gallardo, New Lamborghini To Be Named Huracán: Report
In supercar terms, Lamborghini's Gallardo is positively ancient. Familiarity may have dulled the looks only slightly but in terms of performance and driver appeal, more recent offerings have really made it feel its age. That matters not though, as a new Lambo supercar is on the way soon. And as...

Epic is a word that gets used a lot on the Internet. Overused, really. It should be reserved for things like this, the McLaren P1 attacking the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. Unlike many of the fastest Nürburgring lap videos, this is not a raw in-car GoPro dump. It's a celebration of the 'Ring, the P1, and the reasons they both exist. It's a videographic depiction of what it means to be an enthusiast. And the sound. The SOUND. This thing sounds wicked. Motor whining, turbos spooling and dumping, the V-8 screaming, it's an automotive symphony, in a completely un-ironic sense. Along the...
