70 percent will go Nineveh in the Republic of Iraq, a city attacked by terrorist group,ISIS. The remaining 30 percent will be shared between Amici per il Centrafica Onlus, Groupe International Chirurgiens Amis de la Main and the Pope John XXIII Community Association.

The 573hp rear-wheel-drive ,V10 powered Lamborghini Huracan will go from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 3.4 seconds and has a top speed of 198 mph (320 kmh).

The Pope is truly a kind hearted man ,giving 70 percent of the proceeds to a war ravaged Islamic country.
