Tracy Morgan’s $500,000 Lamborghini Aventador SVJ was sideswiped on the east coast last Sunday.
According to TMZ, the 2020 exotic car was scratched on its side, resulting in the vehicle getting towed in the Big Apple.
The red Lambo was seen with white streaks near the driver’s side door but it’s unclear if the car was hit or if Morgan, 54, was responsible for the damage.
The former Saturday Night Live comedian was spotted whipping his wheels last weekend, shortly before the mishap.
He was pictured engaging in animated conversation with a woman who was sitting beside him in the passenger seat.

The actor and standup comic has a history of misfortune when it comes to automobiles.
Back in 2019 he crashed a brand new Bugati just minutes after driving it out of a showroom in his hometown of New York City.
The $2 million luxury vehicle cost around $32,000 to repair the bumper and fender, TMZ reported, adding that the Lambo fix will likely cost a similar amount.
The incident comes after in April 2020 Morgan was seen arguing with a pedestrian in NYC, allegedly over whether the man was jaywalking when the comedian ‘struck him with his sports car’ — the same red Lamborghini towed last weekend.
Morgan was filmed having a tense conversation with the guy in the middle of Midtown Manhattan.
At the time of the alleged striking, he had been driving at the intersection of 42nd and Broadway near Times Square.
The incident occurred as the star attempted a right-hand turn on a green light, an eyewitnesses told TMZ.
The pedestrian claimed he was hit, but it was unclear exactly what had occurred, and authorities did not take a report of the exchange.

Nine years ago, Morgan was seriously injured in an accident on the New Jersey Turnpike that killed his friend, comic James ‘Jimmy Mack’ McNair.
The comedian, who was left in a critical condition in the wake of the incident on June 7, 2014, was in a coma for two weeks.
He suffered a ‘traumatic brain injury,’ went through years of rehabilitation, and was forced to use a wheelchair during his treatment.
Fellow comedian Harris Stanton and Ardie Fuqua were also hospitalized after the Mercedes limousine bus they were riding in was hit by a Walmart tractor-trailer.
