"It's a Lambo, dude!" - RAMd®d - 09-01-2014

The owner who dumped his Buggati Veyron into the drink because he was distracted by a pelican has pleaded guilty to wire fraud.

He confessed that after he bought the car for $1million and took out collectors insurance for $2million, he intentionally dunked the car and left the engine running to ensure it was trashed.

The video taken proved the pelican was innocent and said to the cornerstone of the conviction.

So the pelican is a stool pigeon, and is turning stakes evidence?

I missed how he got a $3 million Bugatti Veyron for $1 million?
Deal-Supercar?

8 year old used one. He insured it for replacement value, which is 3M for a new one.

He could get 20 years. One year for wire fraud, 19 years for dunking his Bugatti.
