Tina Turner's Mercedes-Powered LM002 For Sale

Tina Turner wasn't messing around when she went shopping for a vehicle. In true rock-and-roller style, she opted for a Lamborghini (a LM002 to be exact) and had it retro-fitted and personalized with a Mercedes E500 V8 automatic transmission, a 1500-Watt Blaupunkt stereo, and lots of other aesthetic touches. The big news here is not that Tina Turners owns this vehicle, but that she's selling it. It's currently on the market for Є179,000, and although I'm hardly an expert at appraising vehicles that seems like a pretty good deal.

A little OT:

When I worked at a hotel I recomended Motel 6 to Ike Turner :rofl:

We were sold out and same with out surrounding high end hotels since it was summer time. I think he may have been suprised by the suggestion...

Perhaps it was the only vehicle on the market back then with a sufficiently large enough cabin to fit Tina's hairdo?

That thing is tits and I'm dieing to see pics of her driving this monster now.

That car is so serious! I once saw one in SF and the sound it made was out of this world! Very cool of her to spec out a car like that to drive)

How do you figure. Benz builds much better and more reliable motors than Lambo ever will. It probably has close to the same hp numbers with 4 less cylinders.

Got nothing to do with the HP. That truck is nothing without its V12 powerplant. No V12 = no passion.
