Missy Elliott reached an agreement with an Illinois car dealership last year for a niceee 2012 matte white Lambo Aventador at a cool $376k. The rapper/singer/producer put down a $30k cash payment as well as traded in her $85k ’05 Bentley, and was supposed to be shipped the Lambo by the middle of this year. However, the dealer didn’t live up to their side of the bargain. Details below.
The rapper filed the lawsuit in Florida against Fox Valley Motor Cars, claiming she entered into an agreement with the dealership last year to buy a 2012 Matte White Lambo Aventador (below, in orange) for $376,000.
According to the lawsuit, Missy — repped by Singh, Singh & Trauben — agreed to make a down payment that included $30,000 in cash AND her 2005 Bentley (valued at $85,000). In return, Missy claims the dealership agreed to ship her the Lambo by mid 2012 … but never did.
Missy says she contacted Fox Valley for an explanation — and was told the terms of the deal had changed because the market value of the car had risen.
According to the lawsuit, Fox Valley refused to deliver the car for the agreed upon sale price — and demanded way more money in exchange for the vehicle.
But Missy says that’s BS — and now, she’s suing Fox Valley for possession of her Lambo, plus damages resulting from the dealership’s breach of contract.
