    You realize thats in London pounds right? Thats $40K worth of damage and a $2,000 fine.

          $40K body damage that the guy doesn't even notice until later. Lambo and Ferrari both have been known to have changed the colors of finished cars in order to fill orders. The reason people do this stuff is because other people care more about their cars than they do about people. If you don't understand why someone would key a $100K+ car you're probably one of them.

            I do indeed care more about my car than I do about some drunk jerk, if that's what you mean.

              I do believe capital punishment should be in order for him. Or at least put him out in the "stocks" for public humiliation.

                You obviously havent had your lambo ran on top of. If you had, you wouldn't feel the same way, I dont believe.

                Its not like it was an accident. If it were an accident, I can see the punishment. You DIDNT mean to do it, just sucks it happened to be a lambo.

                This piece of shit fucktard was intentionally fucking up this lambo, thinkings its funny. I think it would have been funnier if the judge would have got him for something along the lines of "Grand destruction" or something (I have no idea what law it would be). But Im sure anything over 10k should be more punishable.

                So what it comes down to is....Fuck up someones car intentionally, and get off the hook with 1/20 of the cost. SWEET.

                  I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. How does the Lambo owner's personality factor into this? It's not like the kid who ran on the car knew the owner and was trying to teach him a lesson or something.

                    I think all of you are not reading this article correctly or fully. It said it COULD cost UP TO 20K British pounds, not that it did cost that much.

                        Well if the cheap fucker who bought the car would have got the CF roof option there wouldn't be any problem. His fault entirely.
