Recession Special: Lamborghini To Offer Pre-Owned Cars in U.S.

    0 Ratings
    SANT'AGATA BOLOGNESE, Italy — Lamborghini is rolling out a certified pre-owned vehicle program through 31 authorized U.S. dealers. Starting next month, all models of the Gallardo and Murciélago will be available used, with a comprehensive warranty and roadside assistance program.

    Automobili Lamborghini America Chief Operating Officer Pietro Frigerio said the program will make sure dealers are seen as the place to get used Lambos that will meet "the same high standards we demand of new Lamborghini vehicles."

    Have one to trade in? The used Lamborghinis in the program will be required to have less than 22,000 miles on the odometer, carry full documentation of their maintenance, pass a "rigorous 150-point" inspection at the dealership and can only have Lamborghini original equipment and accessories installed — no other aftermarket parts.

    Want to buy one? Comprehensive warranty coverage will last one year or two years and includes powertrain, suspension and steering systems, safety equipment such as ABS and airbags, and electrical, fuel and heating and A/C systems. General wear and tear, tires, maintenance service and damage "caused by misuse or the environment" are excluded.

    What this means to you: Save money and squeeze all the excitement out of every dollar. Hey, it's been working well for Ferrari for a few years now. — Laura Sky Brown, Correspondent
