Not sure if you're being serious here. He's not allowed to drive as current and former presidents and vice presidents are barred from operating cars on public roads for 'security' reasons. You get a Secret Service detail for life so you get driven everywhere.

That sounds like my own personal hell, frankly.

Also, a very on-brand Trump story regarding Lamborghini:

However, as Lamborghini’s U.S. distributor changed in the mid-'90s, Lamborghini began to request Trump return the on-loan Diablo, apparently to no avail. Temerian says that he spoke to one of the directors of the Diablo SVR program, and he told Temerian that he met with Trump in his New York office sometime in 1997 at the behest of Lamborghini corporate, to try and get the Diablo back once again.

Rather comically, Trump apparently told this director that, due to his success and influence, it was an honor for Lamborghini to have someone like himself drive and market their cars for him, and in fact, Lamborghini should owe him a sponsorship payment for marketing their cars. On top of that, Trump was still refusing to give back the Diablo, so the director spoke to Lamborghini corporate to broker a deal to get their loan car back.

A long and storied history of being a grifter. Always has been and will be until they put him in a box.
