It doesn’t look like a Lamborghini. I’ve seen one in person. I’m not surprised that the Anus manages to cause the same kind of behavior as any other, though. I hope that somebody manages to squeeze something up next to the driver’s side, and someone else pours out a big creamy coffee next to it on the right.
Except for the sloping roof to add some style in lieu of practicality and probably a lot more horsepower than a SUV would ever need, yea just another SUV
I thought it was Lamborghini Ur anus?
“I drive a Urus.”
“Cool, the real Toyota or one of the rebadged-Mazda ones?”
Being able to afford an expensive vehicle obviously doesn’t make you a better driver. It just makes you out to be a jerk with an expensive ride.
It’s called entitlement.
“Supercar shapes are like, just a state of mind, man. Lamborghinis used to be wedge shaped to divide us, the Urus unites us! Changing its shape and the shape of all cars to this new paradigm brings us one with our chi.”
*Passes doobie*
“Woah, that’s deep man. Hey we’re getting close to Budaboom, I forget, do I park between the yellow lines or on the yellow line?”
“Shiiiit man, uhh, it’s a yellow car so I think you’re allowed to park on it”
“Righteous!”
The unfortunate passive-aggressive jerk inside of me would be tempted to park my Suzuki Samurai in the space remaining next to it, if I were driving it at the time.
I’m not as rash as I was as a teenager but this car is begging to be keyed .

A few years back I was driving past a regional mega mall, and saw a guy with a then-newish Mercedes SL parking diagonally across two spaces in the lot near the Nordstrom? anchor on the corner.
To be fair, it was way out in the corner by itself, surrounded by an ocean of emptiness. He backed in, then clocked the wheel over, leaving him cornered front and back by high curbs. I was at the traffic light, and you could tell he was really fussing and paranoid before he steeled himself to walk away to the store entrance.
On my return trip not too much later, Mercedes guy was in distress on his phone. Someone parked a clapped-out ‘74 Chevy Caprice convertible, rusted body panels and duck-taped top gently rusting in the breeze, IMMEDIATELY next to him -like an inch away. It blocked him from opening the driver’s door, and it’s great length blocked him front and rear between curbs.
God help me, I laughed.
Reminds me of a former co-worker who had a deTomaso Pantera. He parked across two spaces one day and walked away. Another co-worker spotted opportunity and parked his very rusty 63 Rambler right next to it. The first guy complained to the second, who responded: “Don’t worry, the rust isn’t contagious!”
Somehow I’m not starstruck. Golly.
I always thought these looked like a Porsche Macan made from Legos.

Lucky for him it is not a busy parking lot. If it were he is really asking for some pissed off driver to leave a calling card on the side of that car. If he is so concerned about cars nearby, then do what I do, and park 100 yards at the far end of the lot and take a longer walk. Yor car will be safer and you’ll get some exercise from walking back and forth. I emphasize parking far enough out so some jerk who sees you, and might want to park next to you like a pigeon that flies right next to another on telephone lines, decides it is too far for him to walk.
Seems to be an international habit with Urus drivers. During the lockdown in London, I saw one parked in the disabled bay in front of a hotel. I checked; it didn’t have a disabled-driver badge.
Great comments here 🙂
I’d say that if you’re going to have one of these yellow things, you might as well put convex mirrors on the front corners and an extendible stop sign on the left side…then you can indeed park that short bus pretty much where you want.
thats edmonton seems like every strip mall has a weed store nowadays
Wait, that’s not a RAV4?
I do like that it’s yellow…
Black unpainted body moulding for the low staring price of $230k. Nope!
Has he paid for two parking spots if yes that’s ok as I’ve seen how careless some people are when opening their own car doors !!!
Where I live [Annapolis, MD] the roads and parking lots are filled with expensive cars and SUVs. Most of the owners have learned not to park in this manner, as they know it’s likely to result in a huge scratch down the side of the car.
A local long time friend operates a body shop that specializes in upper end vehicles. He says customers regularly bring in these expensive cars and ask him to remove “key scratches” down the side.
His direct quote: Some of them realize why they got the scratch, and those that don’t, or don’t care, keep coming back when the car is “keyed” again & again.
Attending a Saab stand once I got talking to the owner of the local Lambo franchise. He said he hated dealing with the buyers as the cars often ended up repossessed. The demographic was mostly folk that came into quick money. I also know a fellow who bought a new URUS, went to collect it and found he couldn’t get insurance. He is 85 years old. He has 3rd party property on it, that’s it.
