You think your gal has champagne taste? Jon Olsson, the Swedish professional skier and all-around extreme athlete, has just procured a second Lamborghini — this one's a Gallardo — to drive across Europe between ski events.

That's right. When last we crossed him, Olsson was used a Murcielago LP670-4 for the occasional trip, and made a Nissan GT-R his daily driver last season.

But bad news came when Olsson learned the Aventador he desperately wanted wouldn't be ready in time to be his daily.

"As you all know I have been debating on winter cars for a quite a while. As the seems Aventador seems to taking a while and there has come a few other alternatives into the picture I decided to get something temporary.

When I saw the "temporary car" I was actually stoked that the Aventador was running late! I think this this thing tuned out sick! Best of all, no more rental cars!!!! This thing is 100% ready to be driven 50,000 km this winter! "

Yup. Olsson's gonna put 30,000 miles on an all-wheel-drive Lamborghini Gallardo this season.
