Gumball 3000 2012: Glen Cove Fire Department Lamborghini Murcielago

No, of course there’s no fire department taking part in the Gumball Rally, even though a Lamborghini Murcielago with the ability to put out fires would be great. The Murcie you see above, thanks to Youtube user Shmee150, was actually brought to Times Square, where the even started, for promotional purposes, with the supercar sitting on HRE wheels.
The custom rims, which might not suit eveyrbody’s taste, can be fitted to any modern Lamborghini model and now the entire world paid attention to them, so we have to admit that this was a pretty smart marketing scheme.

The 2012 Gumball Rally is taking participants on the following route: New York City (start, May 25th); Toronto, Canada (May 25th); Indianapolis (May 26th-27th); Kansas City (May 28th); Santa Fe (May 29th); Las Vegas (May 30th); Los Angeles (finish, May 31st).
