"Although only a handful of people could afford to bid on this fabulous dream car," said Ward Leber, CEO of CSN, "the media exposure will bring attention to our website, www.csn.org where every parent can receive free vital information and resources on over 30 child safety topics. The funds will help us continue our 17-year mission to make America a safer place for children to live.

John O'Quinn, the highest bidder said, "I was happy to help CSN protect children and the Lamborghini will make a wonderful addition to the O'Quinn collection."

Pietro Frigerio of Lamborghini said, "Too many children in this country are being abused, abducted, injured or exploited. While Lamborghini is an Italian car maker that focuses on a very unique population of car owners, we care about the safety of all families and children. We are very happy to lend a hand to CSN for this important cause."
