Lamborghini is taking one of its own to court. The Italian supercar maker says Gold Coast Exotic Imports in Chicago breached its contract by selling dozens of Lamborghinis to unauthorized resellers—including a convicted felon.
Key Points
-
Violation: At least 32 sales in 2023 allegedly went to non-retail customers, not allowed under dealer terms.
-
Scheme: Some cars went to brokers who flipped them, harming Lamborghini’s brand integrity.
-
Kickbacks: Lamborghini alleges a secret bonus-for-access program involving six-figure under-the-table payments.
The legal battle has raged since January 2024, but now both parties say they’re nearing a settlement. If talks fail, a trial could hit in December 2026.
