Someone brought a 2003 Lamborghini Murciélago to Las Vegas pawn shop hoping for a six-figure deal but negotiations completely collapse

This man bought a 2003 Lamborghini Murciélago to a pawn shop in Las Vegas hoping for a six-figure deal, but things didn’t pan out that way in negotiations.

If you’ve ever seen Pawn Stars on History Channel, you’ll be familiar with this routine.

A hopeful customer comes into the shop with what they think is a priceless antique, and the store owners haggle with them for a price that makes both parties happy.

But in the case of this Lamborghini Murciélago, business dealings came screeching to a halt.

How much was this pawn shop willing to pay for this 2003 Lamborghini Murciélago?

This car and its owner featured in the aptly named episode Silence of the Lambo, which aired in the show’s fifth season.

The Pawn Shop star taking a look at it was Corey, and he was visibly stunned when the Lambo pulled it into the parking lot.

“You said it was car, not a supercar,” he told the owner in disbelief.

And what a supercar it was.

In pristine condition, this car had been purchased at an IRS auction for $111,000.

The owner was hoping to walk away with $115,000 and said he wouldn’t accept anything below $100,000.

But how much was Corey willing to offer up?

Well, after a test drive confirmed that the car ‘ran like a dream’, it was time for some haggling.

But first, it was time for an expert to be called in.

The expert listened to the engine’s roar and likened it to a Led Zeppelin album, which is quite the endorsement.

But his estimate of its worth? Between $85,000 and $90,000.

The owner wasn’t willing to budge south of $100,000, which pushed Corey to make his final offer of $95,000.

“I could use the money, but I think I’m going to have to take it home and put it back in the garage,” the owner said.

We have to respect him sticking to his guns.

Because let’s face it, many of us would probably give it over for less than what the pawn shop was offering.

Some seriously cool cars have appeared on TV over the years

On Pawn Stars, the antiques featured are usually a lot smaller than a car – think of an antique coin collection or a first edition book.

But cars have appeared on the show over the years, including this 1932 Lincoln.

It’s not just on History Channel that you’ll find cool cars – they’re abound everywhere on the small screen.

You need only watch an old episode of Top Gear to see plenty of them.

Remember the Porsche 928 that ended up being abandoned in Argentina?

Or how about the time the hosts did a $10,000 Italian supercar challenge that would be near impossible to do today?
