As if not being able to afford a supercar wasn't bad enough, today we discovered that Lamborghini ownership comes with added benefits. This orange Huracan can probably be called "Limborghini" since it likes to go low.
This video was uploaded on Facebook on March 11 and has nearly 700,000 views already. It shows how the driver of this particular V10 supercar passes under a barrier. He doesn't even slow down that much, but that's presumably because he's pulled this stunt before.

One day, sir, you will find that they changed the settings, and the barrier is a little bit lower!

Can you imagine being able to do this every day? Even though you have a 610 horsepower, petrol-hungry engine, it could enter London without paying any charges.

This Lamborghini reminds us of all those movie scenes where they drive under a truck to escape the bad guys in SUVs. How did they ever get those crazy ideas? Well, it's been done in real life. After the Berlin Wall had been erected, some folks who wanted to flee to the West lowered their Beetles rides so they could drive straight through the checkpoint without slowing down.Unless we're mistaken, one person was killed when the border guards opened fire, so hitting the barrier was not the most dangerous thing that could happen.

So how tall is the Lamborghini Huracan? Well, the Italians say the roof sits at 1,166mm (45.9 inches), so it's at about the same level as your hip bone. The old Gallardo was exactly the same height, and the McLaren 650S is a little taller at 1,199mm (47.2 inches).

So how low can you go?
