The Ultimate Centerpiece
Ice sculptures, wine decanters and even table jewels are nothing compared to the table centerpiece unearthed at Autoblog. The display features a bright green Lamborghini Gallardo balanced atop four teacups in front of the William Ashley store in Toronto to promote a contest for a set of fine China -- the very same China supporting the 3,153-lb. vehicle. We're still wondering why they aren't including the car in the contest, since performance vehicles generally have very little to do with tableware, even though we wouldn't object if given the chance to have such a centerpiece at our own table.
Click past the jump for a closer look at the teacups holding up the car.

How rediculous is this? May as well show a 767 boeing jet... stupid avertising if I have ever seen it. First off, I wouldnt buy that ugly placewear and secondly, who the heck can afford that ugly car?

Dr John Sep 22nd 2006 8:48PM
With tires sitting on them, how do you get the tea in the cup? Dumb idea!

They probably used hydraulic jacks to raise the car up and then lowered it onto the tea cups Dummy.

I thought this was prestty cool, until I read post #2, now I am fixated on trying to solve the riddle? What the hell is post #2 about?
DJ~genius Sep 22nd 2006 10:22PM
ok guys ive solved the moron's riddle...he (or she) is talking about slamming the tea cups. the baby can 'try' to break the tea cups and they won't break since they are strong enuff to hold up a lambo ;)

The angle that the car is shown in, does not do it justice. In my humble opinion, the Gallardo is the most beautiful sport coupe on the road. Love to have one..............
Robert Sep 22nd 2006 11:21PM
Wrong, the Gallardo is the second most beautiful sports car on the road created by Lamborghini. The Marcielago is the most beautiful sports car on the road.

We're just four lonely teacups on a shelf up on the wall. Think we'll get under a Borgini, and see how hard it falls! Beau.
