Lamborghini on Teacups.

Outside of the posh store William Ashley in downtown Toronto is this weird display of the strength of teacups:

This odd display is set up outside the William Ashley store in downtown Toronto to promote a contest for a 20-piece set of fine china. The Gallardo was hoisted up with a crane and delicately set atop four tea cups beneath each wheel. There’s literally nothing holding up this car’s curb weight of 3,153 lbs. except four tiny tea cups.

Oh, yeah, the car is kinda nice. But those teacups, man!

    My kids would still find some way to break them.

    I once saw a Bentley on teacups. Now that was a balancing act.

    bah, Gallardos are for cheapos. Now if they had put a Murcielago there, I’d be impressed.

    And lime green is not a good color for a car, not even a Lamborghini can pull that off… It’s probably only good for a scooter. I betcha a lime green scooter would look nicer.

    I saw this the other day. What puzzles me is the emphasis on the strength of teacups – is there a huge demand for high-test wedgewood all of a suudden?
