Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 – more than perfect!

Also the last year in Geneva was a year of many new stock vehicles. Of course this occasion isn’t about stock vehicles, but also about concepts or modifications. The Italian manufacturer with a bull in its badge – Lamborghini, introduced their new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640.

This model is a pioneer in the history of Lamborghini and fascinating evolve of Murcielago model. It’s a super sport suitable for the ordinary roads. The number 640 means 640hp under the hood. But the change wasn’t made only under the hood, but also in its design.

An ordinary model has amazing 580 horses under the hood, and now this beast. Major changes were made on the engine – extending its volume form 6.2 litres to 6.5 litres, so the torque is now 660Nm at 6000rpm.

Other changes were also necessary – modified engine intake, heads of cylinders, exhaust system and electronic transmission with a Thrust system. This gadget secures the best available traction and acceleration in all possible conditions. Similar system is used in Porsche’s 911 GT3 that was also introduced in Geneva.

The new Murcielago beats 100kmph in 3.4 seconds, what is 0.4 seconds better then the ordinary one. Feel dizzy? So the top speed is 338kmph. The LP640 has ceramic brakes with 380mm discs. All-wheel drive in 30:70 ratio is obvious and wheels wear Pirelli P Zero Rosso tires (245/35 R18 in front and 335/30 R18 at the back).

And what about the design? Lamborghini’s designers used their verified process that guarantees an exclusive design, but also high level of functionality. We can’t have only pretty gauges, but also we want to know what they show.

The new aggressive design of this road devil shows modified side sills and front bumper with aggressive lines like a white shark.

We’re used to see Lambos with sharp fronts with great aerodynamics. Its exhaust system is finished with a really big hexagonal exhaust tip in the middle of the rear diffuser. Maybe it’s a brave design, but very fancy too. Tail lamps are red with semi-transparent glass. Thanks to the glass they look like brilliants and that’s really beautiful. There great inlets behind the rear wheels with design matching to the exhaust tip.

But the most amazing thing on this car is its wheels. Black color with matt accent, big dimension and the design can’t be seen anywhere else. 5 groups in two spokes where one crosses another. I must say that there are no prettier wheels for this
We’ve described you this ground-braking Lambo, but don’t think that this is an icon of super sport. Its interior is made in style of sport & functionality. Everything is in combination with black leather. The shift knob is maybe the only bigger chromed part in the interior. It’s situated high enough to change gears quicker and accurate. Also it’s very ergonomic. Carbon handle near the passenger, glossy central tunnel with elegant buttons and rounded heating openings or ergonomic seats guarantee that the interior matches with the exterior.

The Murcielago LP640 has an unbelievable sex-appeal. Its gray exterior and black interior is the most beautiful combination of dark colors I’ve ever seen. It’s a dream car of every younger or bigger boy that has own Matchbox collection and every time he sees Lambo, his heart jumps like a rev counter.
