Rev Up with the Lamborghini Coffee Machine

I love my little white Mr Coffee -- stains and all he's been a good buddy through many early mornings and late night projects, always making awesome cups of coffee. But, loyal as I am, I can't help but be tempted by what an awesome experience a Tonino Lamborghini coffee machine must make?
But with only 1,000 of the handmade machines out there, not to mention the $1750 price tag (just a little out of my usual coffee budget...) I doubt I'll ever get the chance to find out first hand. I might, however, be indulging in some Lamborghini coffee beans sometime soon (what a treat for Mr Coffee!).

Take away the ugly and tacky Lamborghini logo and this machine can compete for the title of world's most beautiful and awesome coffee maker. Although the lever suggests that this thing is not an automatic and the aspiring barista should practice his pulls to maintain the appropriate pressure for the required 28 seconds.
P.S.
May I suggest a reasonably priced Capresso machine to upgrade your Mr. Coffee?

Lamborghini and tacky in the same sentence doesn't quite add up. There is nothing tacky about Lamborghini at all. Anything but. Flashy and otsentatious but not tacky. Again, this blog is all about fabulous, gorgeous, frivolous, beautifully designed and expensive products.
P.S.
May I suggest you have come to the wrong place.

Okay, it's sort of cool looking, but tell me you don't think this one is cooler (not to mention about half as much!): http://www.jlhufford.com/detail.asp?product_id=la-pavoni-stradivari-wood
