7K: Never heard helpful advice being given from the other 3, whether allowed or not.

30K: I recognized right answer but was unsure of where I'd heard/read it. Would have 50/50ed to be sure.

It doesn't particularly help with the question but Lamborghini has a bull logo and the names of their cars are almost all bullfighting related.

Gallardo, Miura, Jalpa are types of bulls.
Jarama is an area that produces bulls.
Espada is a bullfighter's sword.
Reventon, Islero, Diablo, Murcielago, Aventador, Veneno, and Huracan were famous fighting bulls.

They may be introducing an SUV called Urus which is another name for Auroch, the huge ancestor of domestic cattle.

Countach is an exception. It means WOW!

As far as the question goes: Gallardo literally means gallant, Egoista is egotist, and Reventon is a small explosion.
No matter where you go, there you are.

$10k: ATA

$20K: Pretty sure it's refraction, but probably use 50/50 to be safe.

$30k: +1. My dad is a huge car buff AND he speaks Spanish, so a perfect question for him.

So it looks like I'd walking with $30,000 unless the $50k question is something I know. :D
