Thats been all over the net the last week or two. DPS is building a case against him and trying to locate him. He (I won't mention names) is from LamboPower.com, guy is living the life. Had a pair of e46 m3's confiscated and the DPS uses them as patrol cars now (from what I've heard).

If I were him I would sell it off before the DPS gets it. Either way it is a matter of time before he is taken down.

I have the HD version if anyone wants it, HD in 1080p on 65" of goodness = drool.....

I may have seen that guy and car a couple months ago. The lambo/ferrari etc club in Scottsdale had stopped in a gas station by my sister's house during a run and I talked to a couple of the guys.

So after doing some research it looks like the video was doctored because an LP460 can NOT got 219mph. There are not a lot of cars that can reach that speed.
so the joke is on the news guy reporting it as fact.

Im Pretty sure a Lp640 could do 219, a Modded(550whp) porsche did 207( i think on the Mischief Dvd where they were in the Gt2 in a tunnel. And wasn't the Lp640 on Top Gear goin over 200Mph...

top speed

With some mods probably huh? The lamborghini owners seem to disagree though and they'd probably know.
