Lamborghini Dealership in California Starting to Accept Bitcoin
Why not?
While the Chinese government wants nothing to do with Bitcoin, a Lamborghini dealership in Costa Mesa, California, has enough faith in the digital currency to begin accepting it as legal tender. That move would be impressive enough for a "regular" car dealer; for one that sells cars that average $200,000 USD, it's quite notable.
The dealer, Lamborghini Newport Beach, hasn't only made it known that it's begun accepting Bitcoin, but it also confirms via a website post that it's already concluded its first sale. While no Lamborghini changed hands in this particular deal, a Tesla Model S Performance did, a car which retails for about $100,000 USD.
