- As of 2021, the net worth of Lamborghini is estimated to be around $12 billion. A new Lamborghini sports car starts at a little over $200,000. And a well-kept, classic Lambo can be worth several millions of dollars. Not too shabby!
But did you know that the inventor of this fancy car brand once went to prison? And that one of his biggest motivators was an insult that the founder of Ferrari dished out to him? Keep watching to find out more about this unusual story!

This video is a testament of how people would give millions of views to people showing off their lamborghinis and ferraris but won't take the effort to know how they were built and the motivations of their founders.
Truly an amazing video. I hope, I could contribute to the success of this channel in some way.
Your comment is so well written and thoughtful. I wouldn't be surprised, if you could call yourself an owner of one of those brands cars at some point. Keep that supportive attitude and you will go places, Bilal!
One thing is for sure. The Countach is an absolute icon. And it's not a Ferrari.
I'd take Lamborghini's original supercar, the Miura, over a Countach any day. Or, Ferrari's ultimate icon, a GTO (but they run about 70mil now so cmon lotto lol).
One word for u: 250GTO
This shows how much competition helps the growth of the world. Without Ferrari, without the competition between Enzo and Ferruccio, today there would probably have been only Lamborghini tractors and not the splendid cars that we all know today.
The video makes too much of his prisoner status. Just a prisoner of war, not some criminal.
I agree 💯
Totally agree. A POW is different than a criminal prisoner.
Well...he was a POW fascist...you know the ones who supported Hitler.
My thoughts Exactly!
Just a little bit nazi. Mussolini just killed a little bit of allies.. Ain't nothing to talk about. 😆😆😆
I heard that Ferrari laughed at Ferrucio when he said he'd build his own supercar "Haha, a GT tractor" said Enzo.......
Also, Ford used their money to build the GT 40 to win Le Mans & beat Ferrari when Enzo broke off negociations at the last minute.
Ferrari was well know for his abraisive personality.
They did build a gt style tractor in red Ferrari too
He was a bit Goofy 😋
Ferrari was an asshole
LAMBORGHINI'S MOTIVATION TO BUILD A SUPER CAR WAS AMAZING. THE RIVALRY BETWEEN FERRARI AND LAMBORGHINI GAVE THE WORLD THE BEST SUPER CARS TO THIS DAY AND FOR YEARS TO COME. BOTH MEN DID A GOOD JOB AND CO EXIST IN A COMPETITIVE SUPER CAR COMPETITION. CONGRATULATIONS TO LAMBORGHINI AND FERRARI YOU ARE ON TOP OF THE SUPER CAR BUSINESS!!!!
TOP IS ONLY FOR ONE.ONE HAS NAME.FERRARI.....................WHAT ELSE.
Ferruccio was motivated to build super GT's, not supercars.
Enzo built no supercars. The first Ferrari supercar the 365BB was a FIAT project.
He was well known for building tractors and owned a Ferrari and when he complained to Ferrari, Enzo laughed at him
My uncle in italy has a lawnmower Lamborghini it’s 😎
Great vid of history. You make some fascinating vids! I have personally met Valentino at the unveiling of his special edition Gallardo in August 2009. Very nice and humble guy.
"War prisoner," not "prisoner."
I also don't like that they make it sound as if he was a criminal and not a prisoner of war.
@@3DPeter if he fought for italy, he fought with the fascist Nazis. Many of the italian prisoners of war were shipped out to Cape Town.
@@iHelpSolveIt You meant that he fought on the opposite side of the horrible communist dictatorship that was Soviet Union, as many other countries should have.
I owned a lamborghini once at need for speed video game, & believe i'm gonna own the real one soon in a real world
Hahahaha me tooooo
🤣😀😆😄😂
Speak it into existence
@@cainisable7703 i speak my lamborghini into existence.
Great story telling. I was feeling like i was reading an essay for my assignment😂..the thesis, the arguments😮💨
We need more content like this on YT
They should make a movie of this
Thanks god for Enzo’s comments otherwise we wouldn’t have the awesome Huracan.👍
Good video. I especially appreciated that the narrator sounded like a human.
Fun fact quite a few of the world famous top of the line automakers have built some of the worst machines known to man. In the end, as has been said these were talented people who changed the auto industry, some of which worked for Hitler, some worked for Benito Musalini and even Japan during WW2 era those are just a few of the top of the head. History is full of guys like Freidrich Porsche who lived in the wrong country at the wrong time. So yeah the line gets kind of muddy when you say criminal for being a citizen in the wrong country at the wrong time.
12:23 what typa pizza names are these
Competition always moves the ball forward tho, even to this day that rings true for most manufacturers.
Imagine telling someone you have a Lamborghini and when they ask to see it you point to a air conditioner.
Fun fact shortly after the Miura he promptly left the company without a care and retired in confidence knowing he made a better car than Ferrari. He had no further inputs.
May b a Movie : Ferarri Vs Lambhorghini be nice ...
Like Feruchio Enzo had also influenced Ford to champion their GT40 to compete against after a fallen purchase attempt for the Ferrari factory.
I'm just curious why when you were talking about him building his car factory close to the manufacturers of engines and you mentioned Ducati you actually threw up a picture of antique American cars??
I just watched a few of the videos this creator puts out and that was something that irked me. It wouldn't take too much more effort into getting historically correct photos or drawings of the items they flash. Like talking about how an auto maker from the late 1800's company once made door bells and they show a "Ring" camera bell.....wtf....only a hundred and twenty year difference in technology. Or talking about Rolls Royce production picking up and showing a Ford assembly plant pumping out cars.
@@eldiablo7862 😂😂Yeah, I noticed that as well. I guess I'm just a stickler for accuracy - especially when, like in these instances, it's so insanely simple to be historically accurate.
Never settle for less folks 😤
Considering the similarity between subject matter and thumbnail pics... I sense there's some unknown rivalry story between the owner of this channel and "Hook". This video's thumbnail pic is almost an identical mirror image of the pic for the Hook video.
I agree with Mr Lamborghini, even to this day I am not so impressed with Ferraris. Over priced POS to impressed rich people. Give me a porsche any day.
Cope
Great video but i really have a problem with "Former prisoner" as this has connotations that he was a convicted criminal, he was not a criminal, he was a prisoner of war, he wasn't a cocaine dealer who got locked up and managed to turn his life around.
Impressive never give up on your dreams
A Lamborghini before a Ferrari!👍❤️😃 Ferrari has always been too arrogant, putting unreliable bordering on cheap components in their overpriced cars ? I imagined the brand represents quality.
Every time he says something he puts a picture of a car or something from new modern cars, at first he gets you, you think somehow he got those old pictures of Oricchio working on a car or in a plant then you realize it's a lie and that's just disgusting.
The old generations were more ambitious than us
Perspective... He started with a skill, collected lots of almost free stuff he cobbled together and sold to friends and family. As he made.more money he reinvested it into better more quality stuff.
elon
but remember that working force was much cheaper
They already released the reveulto which is my favorite
somebody screwed up when they say Ducati and show a picture of an American car
6:05 its not two Ferrari or is the the Muira a Ferrari now and the other is the Jalpa or Uracco i think...
The Best Revenge is Success 🔥🔥
Am I the only one who thinks Ferrari and Lamborghini have a rivalry?
How many LeMans wins does Lamborghini have ?
I just bought a Diablo Roadster with 750 original miles after looking at endless other options ( ferrari included ) im also an auto engineer by trade and i totally support Mr. Lamborghini's opinions - older Ferraris are superficially made garbage made from shelf parts. this is a post war fact. this video only makes me love my car more knowing the rebel that spoke up and started it all
Totally agree with you... I worked on Ferrari's and omg what utter junk. I was Mbenz trained and certified and worked on german cars, when i was asked to fix a few types of Ferraris it was a shock to see how basic and utter junk. And OMG slow.
Interesting story, and I enjoyed it. But it is a bit disingenuous to characterize Lamborghini as a criminal when in fact he was a prisoner of war - not the same thing as one who committed a crime. One might say heroic, rather than criminal.
You call Nazi's heroic?🤣
@@iHelpSolveIt Where do Nazis (not "Nazi's" which is the possessive form) come in? Lamborghini was taken prisoner by the British. Italy was fighting on the side of Nazi Germany.
As for why I wrote "heroic," he was not imprisoned for committing a crime, as is implied by the depiction of him behind bars. Rather, Lamborghini was fighting in a war, which, one might say, is itself an act of heroism.
@@DanieltheTruebadour calling people who supported a war based on racism... Heroic. No thanks. His battle with Ferrari, that was epic
U make it sound like he was a criminal. POW does it justice (no pun intended), not "prisoner"
Ferrari will forever smoke lambo...cut the BS😭
depends on the TYPES we're talking about.
On race maybe but on price and quality durability, the Lamborghini is the best choice
And Ford's GT also smoked Ferrari at Le Mans
@@met9072 Damn.. what type of Ferrari ?
@@met9072 lol it took ford billions of dollars 5 years, and a car that they didn't even build themselves to beat a bunch of broke artisans, just to get their ass kicked at the 24h of daytona right after.
Truly impressive
14:46 Ducati? Really ? LOL
wow vidia walton
I once owned a Lamborghini i really loved . It was a gift from my grand dad i really liked riding it but then one day my younger brother made a ride and it really broke it the remote was working pretty well but the rear moter was shot circuited
hahaha...you kill it man!
So why was he in prison?
Classic clash of egos that the world has benefited from for yrs.
Legend!
I hear that in order to buy a new Ferrari they expect clients to buy the old Ferrari and own it for 6 months and then you can buy the new one as a trade. Correct me if I’m wrong. With that question being outta the way, both Lamborghini and Ferrari make nice cars. Both are expensive ass hell lol. But I’ll still take a Lambo over a Ferrari. C8 Corvette would out run a Ferrari. This also teaches us that even our own people hate on each other.
"C8 Corvette would out run a Ferrari" I doubt this, Ferrari F8 Tributo for example is extremely quick and the C8 is no match for it..and the SF90 Stradale is even quicker, a mid 9 sec 1/4 mile car out of the box. Don't get me wrong, love the C8, but current turbo-charged V8 Ferrari's are ridiculously fast. For the Record, I'd prefer a Lambo too, although my favorite is the Lexus LC 500, an all rounder that is in a class of its own.
Perhaps the C8 may not beat the F8. But we shall see with the C8 Z06 with it’s naturally aspirated. Now that would be worth to watch.
@@310Cowboys yeah, a possibility, I’m sure Drag Times, Throttle House and others will do a few races.
you can buy any new production Ferrari you like, from any importer all over the world
I hve watch for Ford . Honda n now dis how it started so aand all them didn't study n went to there passion dammmm
i always thought it was adidas vs nike
Nope. Adidas was founded by Adi Dassler and his brother Rudoplh. After a big fight between the two, Rudolph decided to leave the company and found Puma. An immediately rivalry began especialy in get contracts with german sports/olympic teams.
@@davidebassini2044 oh okay
Old man Enzo talked shit to Ford and got his ass handed to him in the form of the Ford GT.
old man Enzo cared only for F1
Insult an entrepreneur at your own risk.
How did Lamborghini get it’s bull logo
Who’s idea was it
Ma higit na ₱668B po.
Scam?
Um what's that mean?
I feel like this video repeated the same thing like 10 times. And yes he went to jail as a prisoner of war but that has nothing to do with anything.
italian RAF? XD
During WW2 the Italian Air Force was named "REGIA AERONAUTICA" (Royal Air Force)
@@rizzulazzi wow! i did not know that! thanks
Pow not prisoner
Jeez. I hope the research took longer than the hunt for stock footage. So many errors or just stupid pics that have no relation to the info. You mention Ducati and show a picture of an american Studibaker!!! WTF. With work this sloppy how can I believe anything you say.
This is a great story about a couple of hard-headed Italian Alpha males. To be honest, I like Lambos better as do millions of car aficianados all over the world. There is something very rebellious and original in their concept and design. Today you cannot buy a red Lamborghini since red was the official color of Ferrari. And an added note: While Mr. Lamborghini was critical of several aspects of his Ferraris' performance, the most famous early Lamborghini - the Countach - is reported to be a very difficult car to drive with many of the same faults.
thats why he made and sold the Espada and the Jarama at the same time with the Countach
Nice video, but please search for better Italian pronunciation Thanks
vidia qourt lamborghini 2003 ( 3 years old she built that nvidia )
Copy plus innovation and motivation
definitely not a criminal. clickbait
& who owns Ferrari? Oh snap, Fiat 🙄
from 1969 onwards
I need to go tell Christian von Koenigsegg that he builds subpar cars so he can tell me how I know nothing about cars. That will help motivate me to build a Koenigsegg rival supercar 😀😀😀
