Whoops: The Mercedes crashed into the Lamborghini as it exited a parking building.

Is this New Zealand's most expensive fender-bender today?

A black Mercedes-Benz caused a bit of a scene when it crashed into the side of a Lamborghini Aventador on Auckland's High St on Thursday afternoon.

The Lamborghini's owner, who did not want to be named, told the New Zealand Herald he was in a meeting when he heard about the accident.

MAX PENNINGTON The Lamborghini was towed around 3pm on Thursday.

The Mercedes-Benz had crashed straight into his Lamborghini, which retails for around $600,000, when coming out of an adjacent parking building.

The Lambo's driver was trying to stay philosophical about the situation, despite his "dream car" taking substantial damage.

"[The Mercedes-Benz driver] was an elderly guy, I can't sit there and yell at him, if it was your dad how would you feel?" he said.

"I mean it's a mistake, he didn't crash it and then run away, he was okay about it, he stayed around. He had a pretty nice car too."

The Mercedes-Benz hit his car's axle, which meant the man would have to order parts. That could take several months, he said.

"It was my dream car ... he crashed my dream car, but you can't sit in heat forever, it's all right.

"I worked hard for that bloody thing, I'll miss it for two months."

An employee at a shop on the street witnessed the crash.

"It was pretty bad, it looks like the Lamborghini's whole chassis is broken," he said.

"It was quite a new model Mercedes as well, that will be an expensive one."

The witness said both cars were towed away.

"There were a lot of people standing around taking pictures."

A photo taken by TVNZ journalist Luke Appleby was captioned: "These two Aucklanders are having a bad day."

Police had no comment about the incident.
