Visit the Lamborghini museum from the comfort of your chair !
A visit to one’s favorite manufacturer's museum is almost a religious experience. You can admire the models of the past, learn more about the thought process behind small details, and sometimes even see a pristine example of your particular car! It is sometimes very hard to go there in the flesh, as they are often halfway across the globe.
Once again, Google comes to the rescue. Using the same technologies developed for the Street View program, the team of cameramen and programmers managed to create a virtual tour of multiple places around the world, including a couple of automotive museums.
