Chinese creativity in creating counterfeit goods is admirable. This time a carpenter from Putian, Fujian Province, China made the replica of Lamborghini Roadster. Uniquely, this sport car is made of wood.
The carpenter had the desire to have an exotic sports car, but due to lack of moneys he is unlikely to buy the original model. However, by leveraging his expertise, he made the Italian sports car from mahogany wood.

Indeed, the result was not 100 percent similar to the Lamborghini. However, at least the design of the car is already similar to the two-seat sports car without a roof, with scissor doors, and has a large rear wing.
Not only rely on appearance, this wooden sports car is equipped with tires and use of electric power so that the Chinese wooden Lamborghini Roadster is capable to running at speeds of 30 kph, such as reported of Autoevolution on Thursday, November 27, 2014.
The carpenter took more than half a year and spending at least 100,000 yuan (Rp. 198 million) to build the sport car. But his hard work has paid off, after reportedly there are collectors who are willing to pay twice as much to buy his unique wooden Lamborghini Roadster. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTOEVOLUTION]
