If anyone drives a Lamborghini in the US will they surely be carjacked?


Here in England, most definitely,whether carjacking on the street, or buying fuel, or them breaking into your house for the keys. Even in the wealthiest areas of London; Lambourghini, or Maserati, drivers are simply followed home if spotted out and about by people who like der car man and wanna take it innit.
Unless you only drive it in Zone 1 and nowhere else, ..you will be followed.

Well being that Lambourghini's are not a common sight in America outside of Hollywood and Las Vegas, you would be pretty stupid to hijack one and not realize you're in a car easily identified by not just cops, but pretty much anyone who see's it. It either would be a short joy ride, or a quick spin around the block and dump it, as it's a pretty stupid *beep* choice for a car to high jack and try to get away with it.

You sure? Are you definitely from the US?

Car jacking is practically non-existent in most parts of the US. You'd have to be in a scummy part of a scummy city to be at significant risk of being car jacked, such as Baltimore, St. Louis, or Detroit. Also, in the US, unlike in England, we are legally allowed to defend ourselves, so a would-be car jacker risks being shot dead where he stands.

The OP is talking absolute shit.
There is a guy near me who drives an orange Lamborghini and another who drives an Aston Martin. They've had their respective cars for at least a couple of years now and have never had any bother whatsoever.

Yes

I've seen Lamborghinis driving safely around New York City.
