Interesting but I highly doubt the seller will see that much because this car is near impossible to repair. Only thing left to do is part out but to part out $98,000 would take a long time.

(prices from what i have seen on lambo sites) exhaust,rest of the interior...and many other parts which would probably sell right away, be easy for you to hit par with the buying price?

It would be interesting to find out if Lambo would be able to fix the car and if they could how much would it cost. I remember reading that the Porsche GT that crashed in Vancouver a few years ago was sent back to Germany to be repaired.

the easiest way to deal with this is if we call the guys that have the car for sale. In there ad it says "YOU SHOULD HAVE IT READY AT LESS THAN 1700004 WHAT A STEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.We are dealers and Lamborghini repair shop in texas and have purchased the car from British Columbia.Vancouver Canada," if they are a Lamborghini repair shop and have estimated it costs around 170000 to repair the car back to normal, i would have no problem buying that car and sending it to the states to get fixed then bringing it back down. Hell ill even give then 190000 to fix have it back to normal (yes i know it will never be the same, but as long as its a good job getting done from a "Lamborghini repair shop" I'm fine with it". What Ive done in the past, well about 5 years ago, i brought a Ferrari 355 down from the states that was wrecked, brought it local to a shop that had many parts in stock, fixed it and took it back down to the states (don't know if this will still work) but if it does, a LP640 for 190000? I'm down

I've dealed with a few people that have rebuilt exotics.
It's very time consuming, parts are extremely expensive. And some parts you have to try and make yourself. All in all, not a safe car. You might save a bit of cash if you're looking to show off, and don't plan to drive the crap out of it.
But whoever thinks $8000 to fix that is on crack. If it would only cost that much it would've been repaired.
A Mondena with lighter damage than that costed 60K+ to fix on top of buying the wreck.

There's always people that are selling, I'll leave it all up to luck to the buyer to find cheap parts. | You should buy it, fix it and then tell us how it is then.
The bigger idiot here is the one who believes they're getting a "bargain" out of fixing that car. Whatever floats your boat.
Never knew that cheapass and Lamborghini would be used in the same sentence.

$350,000 is quite a deal for a LP640.

If it was worth fixing, or could be fixed at a reasonable price, I'm sure they would've brought it down to the USA. $5300 in duty shouldn't be enough to stop them.
Anyone know the specifics of the accident though?
