Unusual Listing: Lamborghini Gallardo Priced at $35,000 Sparks Questions
A unique listing on Facebook Marketplace has caught the attention of car enthusiasts, especially those with a particular affinity for red. A 2009 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 Coupe, boasting just 20,000 miles, is available for an eye-popping price of $35,000. However, potential buyers are advised to consider several concerning details.
The advertisement notes, "Does not start, stuck in drive! No title. Don’t ask for vin," drawing immediate red flags. Accompanied by only one photo—showing a cropped view of the vehicle’s rear—the listing reveals a dolly mysteriously stuck under one of the rear wheels. The seller claims, “Sold as is for parts; everything is there, nothing missing.”
While it’s unclear whether the car is stolen, the listing’s location in East Hartford, Connecticut, raises eyebrows as it is not typically associated with Lamborghini ownership. Adding to the intrigue, the post was made by someone using the name “Bagg Chaser.”
In a quick follow-up, Bagg Chaser reduced the vehicle’s price to $34,000 the next day. His updated post includes a complete image of the car and maintains the insistence that prospective buyers refrain from asking for the VIN. Furthermore, he claims that after an insurance incident, he now possesses the title, but any potential buyer must meet him and his "good friend" at their house to conduct the business.
A comparison with listings from reputable dealers shows that similar Lamborghini Gallardos, with comparable mileage, range from $95,888 to $140,995. These legitimate listings include multiple clear images and comprehensive vehicle history reports.
As the curiosity continues, best of luck to Bagg Chaser and his partner in this unusual sales venture.
