Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 (2006-10)

 




The Murcielago was Lamborghini’s flagship model for most of the 2000s. Featured in this post is the later base version of the Murcielago known as the LP640, which was produced from 2006 to 2010. Powering the Murcielago LP640 is a 6.5-liter V12 with 631 horsepower and 487 lb-ft of torque mated to a six-speed automated manual transmission. It makes the dash from zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and is capable of a top speed of 211 mph. The LP640 is an updated version of the original Murcielago, adding revised front and rear fascias, asymmetrical side air intakes, a single-outlet exhaust system, and upgrades to its suspension and programming. Its interior was also revised, providing greater headroom and an upgraded stereo system over its previous iteration.




Lamborghini replaced the Murcielago with the Aventador in 2011, the latter of which is now the previous V12 flagship Raging Bull. In total, less than 4,000 units of the Murcielago were built across all versions. The LP640 version of the Murcielago is currently valued in the upper $200,000s and lower $300,000s. These three Murcielagos were on display at recent car shows I attended this past month, and like the Aventadors from a recent previous post, the V12 Lambos have stolen nearly every car show that I have attended within the past two months. Although it isn't as cool and I don't like it as much as the Aventador, the Lamborghini Murcielago is still a super cool, amazing, incredible, stunning, and pretty rare supercar that will sweep anyone off of their feet.
