Miami restaurant mogul cooks up 186-mph speedboat to match his Aventador

By Andrew Hard Published January 29, 2015

Some people just need to go fast and look good, no matter the surface.

Miami restaurant magnate Gino Gargiulo is one of those people, and to prove it, he commissioned a commanding, aggressive speedboat to match his Lamborghini Aventador LP 720-4 last year.

The watercraft, called Raging Bull, cost a whopping $1.3 million to make, overshadowing the $750,000 Gargiulo plunked down for his special edition Lambo. Outside of the matching Giallo Maggio yellow color scheme, the vehicles share impressive performance dexterity on their respective surfaces.

While the 720–horsepower Aventador boasts a top speed of 217 mph and 0 to 60 time of just 2.9 seconds, the speedboat isn’t far behind.

With two twin-turbo Mercury Racing 1350 engines at the rear, the 48-foot Raging Bull has a staggering output of 2,700 hp and a downright terrifying top speed of 186 mph.

The banana-colored duo first appeared in 2014, but at the 2015 Supercar Week in Palm Beach, Florida, the stylish speedsters were again displayed side by side.

YouTube channel Mike Supercars TopSpeed has posted a video inspecting the matching pair from all angles, and you can see the design ethos of the LP 720-4 showcased on the speedboat. The arrow-like front end and headlights are perhaps the most obvious crossovers, but the Raging Bull also wears Aventador-inspired seats, taillights, dash, and steering wheel.

Believe it or not, this isn’t the first time Gargiulo has built a water-bound companion to a high-end supercar. Back in 2007, the restaurant owner commissioned a boat inspired by his Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

They say money can’t buy happiness, which is probably true. But it can buy a matching speedboat and supercar combo, so there’s that.

Volvo is rolling out Apple Music to over 2 million cars with a simple OTA update

Your Volvo may soon get Apple Music without needing CarPlay

Interior view of the 2024 Volvo EX90.

The line between your smartphone and your car continues to blur. Volvo has announced that it is rolling out an over-the-air software update that brings Apple Music directly to the infotainment systems of more than 2 million vehicles worldwide. Instead of relying on Apple CarPlay or plugging in an iPhone, eligible drivers will be able to stream music natively from their car's built-in system, making Apple Music another integrated feature of Volvo's software experience.

The update is arriving for a wide range of Volvo models, including the EX90, ES90, XC90, S90, V90, XC60, S60, V60, XC40, EX40 and EC40, covering model year 2020 onwards. Availability, however, may vary depending on the vehicle.

Chery's premium arm just dropped a sedan that makes you wonder why American EVs cost twice as much for half the tech.

Exeed's 2027 Exlantix ES ships with a driver-assist system called Falcon 700. It is built around an Nvidia Orin-Y chip and a genuinely stacked sensor suite.

A new AI model wants self-driving cars to think before they swerve

Forget guessing games, this self-driving AI actually shows its work.

Self driving car

Self-driving cars have gotten pretty good at driving. The harder problem is teaching them to drive safely in situations nobody planned for. We have heard horror stories of self-driving cars, behaving erratically in emergency situations, often times delaying first responders from reaching the scene.

A team at Seoul National University, led by professor Jun Won Choi from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, thinks they have cracked part of that puzzle with a new AI model called SafeDrive. The research was recently selected as a highlight paper at CVPR 2026, a distinction that goes only to roughly 3% of all submissions.
