Watch This $200,000 Lamborghini Drive Through Flood Waters Like a Boss

One guy behind the wheel of a white Lamborghini Gallardo drove down a very flooded California street in a very expensive car. Video shows him plowing right through a drenched intersection in San Diego. The water is so deep and his car is so low to the ground that it nearly reaches the windshield. The type of Lamborghini costs a whopping $200,000 and it surprisingly didn't even stall with being surrounded by all of the water. Once it was out of the flood it sped off like it was no big deal. #InsideEdition

"Some people have more dollars than sense" Same person who said that probably thought it was a front engine.. 😑
-
Engine's in the back............
-
the engine is in the back. any car can get water submerged slightly for short time. but most cars have the air intake in the front bumper or hood so it would inhale water and shit the bed
-
You know what I love more than that Lamborghini KNOWLEDGE
-
TechRax was driving it
-
This nigga said waterproof
-
No it's just that the engine is in the back of the car
-
His trunk must have gotten some water damage.

I think everyone's missing the bigger picture here....flood waters in California?? What next? A hurricane in desert terrain? :P

A lot of people in the comment section seem to think that since this car is mid-engined, it's somehow waterproof. It's not. Most mid-engined cars have their cold air intakes drawing from the side vents and a few even draw air from under the car, like the Ferrari 458 Italia, which has no side intakes. Driving through high water is risky for any vehicle unless it's equipped with a snorkel intake or has been lifted. Luckily if you watch the video, you can see that the side intakes aren't submerged and this man got lucky. So yes, some people do have more dollars than sense.

thanks for rear engine rayout :)

So many things wrong with this video. For starters. They show a 1st generation Lamborghini Gallardo in the picture, which is worth about $100,000 not $200,000. But the car in the video is a second generation Gallardo, worth probly $130,000-150,000. Still not 200k. Secondly, "one of the worlds most expensive cars" is a laughable statement of course. And third, the engine is in the rear of course so seeing the front end dip under the water has zero effect on the car stalling. I mean not to put down the actual footage, it's crazy they're driving that car in a flood because the car is still expensive for sure. But the commentators and editing made it a joke.

What many people don't realize is that water seeps into transmissions, steering and suspension components, etc and even if they make it through high water problems will likely develop later.

"Like a boss" this is news
-
For 200K, I'm definitely expecting the waterproof option!
-
It didn't stall because the engine is in the back
-
the engine is in the back, and the air intake is on top of the engine not below it, so its perfectly fine. Only problem is the engine could suffer temperature shock of the water touches a hot part of it, and the brakes will probably be squishy for a bit

When you gotta go, you gotta go 😂😂

was prob rented lol so worth the risk

Doesn't matter where the engine is. Most cars can drive through this if the drivers know how. Put the car in first gear, drive slow and steady, never take pressure off the gas, keep going until you're out of the water. NEVER SHIFT OR ALLOW THE CAR TO SHIFT UP. It's the intake of water into the muffler and other intake mechanisms that stall the car. As long as you keep in first gear and never let up on the gas, you're good. Dad taught me this and it's worked every time. Of course, never try crossing water that is too high, or flowing.
