what bargain!

@net_addict: Oh yeah i forgot to move the DP over. Funny thing is that I went to Virgina Tech... shows how much my Math minor helped me :)

Joseph

Wow, Sirius is really selling out.

SuperCollider

@GeekyNerdGuy: No. Lamborghini is owned by Audi, owned by VW (however Audi now influences the cars and VW does squat), and is not associated with their rival, Porsche. Strange how you would know about the VW connection, but not notice the picture is of a Gallardo instead of a Murciélago...

zackthebuddha

It should be the other way around...buy a Sirius radio and get a Lamborghini...they should rethink their marketing strategy

@Joseph:

[www.edmunds.com] Base MSRP is $392,400

$500 / $392,400 = 0.001274 = 0.13% of the price. Please take some math lessons from Letsgohokies.

@graphx:
I was deciding between getting a sirius and a HD radio. Now that they're throwing in a free Lambo with the sirius subscription, I guess HD sounds less attractive.

net_addict

damnit and I just bought my '08 Murciélago, now I feel I got ripped off

jkoppee

@Letsgohokies: $500/$333,000 = $0.0015015015. It's actually 0% cost of the car.

Joseph

aw bloody aw

t3mur

Well, a lifetime subscription to Sirius is $500, so that makes it like .25% of the cost of the car. Great selling point.

Letsgohokies

@Weihovah: agreed i just couldn't make up my mind!!! but now i'm in. for sure!

graphx

Sweet! In for 8!!!

Dr.Kaos

i was on the fence about the lamborghini but now i'm convinced

Weihovah

But really, isn't a Lambo just a VW? Which, I guess would make it a Porsche ...

GeekyNerdGuy

1. Who listens to the radio?

2. If I had a lambo... it would be fitted with a wicked system to play all my mp3's....

radio??? Really???

Cliff_Dangers

Cool, thanks Gizmodo.

More music to choose from while I'm doing two hot blond chicks on the side of the road in the French Rivera.

Kraftwerker

My pinto came with a tape deck.

the sex appeal was the selling point for me though.

catfewd

@net_addict: I didn't even take the time to look up the MSRP, I was just guessing at $200,000

Letsgohokies

@zackthebuddha: Dude, Porsche bought VW. There was a big article in CAR this month about how they're going to kill off all the unprofitable Audi and VW models and revamp next year.

GeekyNerdGuy

You'll pay that back in gas on day one.

strobefx

@GeekyNerdGuy: Can you back that up? Show me an article and I'll believe you

zackthebuddha

I had one of those free subscriptions in my 2006 VW Jetta. I bought it new from the dealer with the Sirius Satellite radio. I just sold it used 2.5 years later and the Sirius Satellite radio was still active and kicking. The Sirius people send me marketing material every once in a while about activating my account and getting a month free but I just keep telling them that I'm not interested.

Could it have something to do with the VW connection between the Jetta and the Murcielago? I don't know. Other cats in VW Forums have told me that Sirius does miss deactivating the accounts on many of the users there so I guess you either have to be lucky or spend $350K on a Lambo to get it.

Gold chain, hairy chest creeping out of half-buttoned silk shirt, and pony-tail haircut are not included.

Samifumi

What a great deal, if i spend $200,000, then i save $200! It practically pays for itself! I am totally walking down the street to the lambo dealer, and buying one! thanks gizmodo for telling me about this once in a lift time bargain!

HawkSkater0

Hah hah.

MastaFalse

DONE!!!!

CardamS

ok

salachirzo

Can I just get the sirius without the lambo, seriously who wants an unpractical vehicle using up space in front of their driveway?..

salachirzo

@salachirzo:
BATMAN drives a lamborghini. are you saying that batman isn't totally awesome and cool? it's a crimefighter's car.

incidentally, the Polizia di Stato also use one, but who cares about them. BATMAN!

willyolio

@zackthebuddha: Audi's Q7 SUV is sitting on an elongated platform for both the Touareg and Cayenne models, so they are associated one way or another.

Also, the article ALSO mentions the 2009 Murcielago, not the Gallardo LP560 pictured. It's just an example of a Lambo, not the specific Lambo this deal comes with. Be nice, or I'll give you such a pinch.

Absolutely gorgeous car and giz should have it as a company car o.O

SneakerFiend

@ProjectMoonlightCafe: sure, Purchase a Sirius subscription, for the rest of your life, paying up front.

jmurph05

oh @salachirzo:Can I just get the sirius without the lambo, seriously who wants an unpractical vehicle using up space in front of their driveway?.. says the soccer mom!

@net_addict: @ProjectMoonlightCafe: I like that deal better too - free Lambo with pruchase of Sirius subscription_

uberfu

This is a million seller for sure! :D

@GeekyNerdGuy:
So, according to your article (which, bravo, is very recent) your saying being a majority shareholder in a company = buying the company?
@Kaiser-Machead's Chips Ahoy!: The links you gave about porsche buying VW are dated in 2007, whereas GeekyNerdGuy's article about Porsche buying majority stock in VW is dated in 2008, as if they didn't buy porsche, and are going to soon purchase enough stock to become the majority holder, ergo, they havent bought the company. maybe i just don't know enough about big business as you do but apparently this company is buying its own stock
and yes, i know its a gallardo used to represent the lamborghini brand and not the 2009 murcielago

zackthebuddha

@zackthebuddha: Last year they bought over 30% as noted in Kaiser's articles. This year they bought over 50%, which makes them the majority shareholder and therefore gives them the power to control VW.

So yes, they own VW.

GeekyNerdGuy

rich pepole don't need to save money.

michaelleung

Well i mean...if' they're going to be so generous as to give me FREE satellite radio, how could i say no?!! DOn't you think that if you have the money to afford a LAMBORGHINI you can PROBABLY afford satellite radio, if you really want it?? That's all i'm saying...
