Veblen good, innit. For the kind of person who wants a bike because they don't have a bike (rather than wanting to ride it) and having it match the car is important.
What did Lamborghini contribute to either except lending their brand name? If I was a very rich collector, I would buy a limited edition Swiss watch. They retain value. I wouldn't buy that bicycle. Nothing makes it special and a collectible item except the "exclusive" paintwork and the Lambo decals, which is too little imo. All components are available for purchase by anybody.

You think in that situation you'd have to choose one or the other?
I doubt that is being bought to ride, think of it as a piece of art
The in-laws had a neighbour who had bought Chris Froome's bike, it was on a stand in the house like a piece of art. He also had a Ferari in the garage that he never drove, by which I mean it got transported to the dealership for MOT and when they moved he had it taken to his new house.

I can understand the bike to an extent but not the Ferrari. I certainly wouldn't have that Cervelo as a piece of art, OK it's a decent bike but they've got no history and it isn't particularly unusual - it's just a bike shaped bike.
Eye watering expensive. Bit beyond the average person. Nice paint job though.
Sorry, don't agree about the paint job, it's hideous. It puts me off almost as much as the price (about half of which I suspect is for the Lamborghini name).

any idea what it would have cost new?
Think they were around £1 million depending on the model. Probably someone bought it as an investment rather than t drive and would be disappointed by their return.
