Now that Lamborghini has announced that they have ended the Murcielago production, all versions of it, I thought it would be a good idea to see whats went past with all the different models.
First, there was the Murcielago.
and or course the Roadster version.
The name: Murcielago, is named after a bull that fought with the famous matador Rafael Molina 'Lagarttijo' on October 5, 1879, the aforementioned bull fouught bravely-and withstood being stabbed 24 times, that the great matador decided to honor the bull and its life. The bull was given to a top breeder and the Murcielago lineage conitnues to this day.
This Four wheel drive supercar has nothing less than amazing performence figures.

So, what more could you ask for?
A super fast super car, that you can actually drive due to a 4 wheel drive system from Audi.
Lamborghini thought you wanted more, so after making the race version (scroll down for rest of sentence)
[I wont cover the R-GT because I know nothing about it]
(continued) Lamborghini started work on the LP640/LP640 Roadster
" The recipe, for making Murcielago LP640, is actually very simple.
You start, with power, now obviously, your gonna need a good slug of that, and a bit more... and some more, there we go..... I thinking maybe more, and then, just when you think its impossible to put more power in a car, put more in!"

how about all of the performence figures

After a while of rest, Lamborghini wanted to revive, not only the spirit of the Murcielago, but the spirit of the Super Veloce series
the SV series is like the GTO series to Ferrari
There was origonally
Lamborghini did SV version (I think) to the Muira, Diablo, and now, the Murcielago
Behold, the Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV!
Quite a looker eh?
Performence figures?
Well get reayd, these are some big numbers for a car!
6.5L V12

Couple that with a superleggera body(super lightweight in italian) and the result is nothing less than shocking
Lamborghini also made an even more limited edition model, strictly for China
That is my summary of the Mucrielago series from the insane manufactuerer, Lamborghini
