Hiding under the cover of the mid engine Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster you will find an awesome 631 horsepower, 487 pound-feet of torque 6.5-liter V12 engine that greatly improves the performance of the original Murcielago Roadster. When all of the horsepower of this 6.5 liter V12 is let loose, the six-speed manual or six-speed automated manual transmission connecting to the standard all-wheel-drive does it’s best to keep the power to the ground. The first Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster was released in the 2005 Murcielago line up, but the latest version the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster that is capable of going from 0 to 60 in about 3.4 seconds is the one we are concerned about.

This Italian sport car does not have too many competitors in its class. The Mercedes-Benz SLR Roadster might be considered a competitor to the LP640 Roadster, but it costs nearly $150,000 more. Ferrari unfortunately doesn’t sell any roadsters with any where near the kind of power that the Mercielago LP640 produces, and Aston Martin’s DB9 Volante also has considerably less horsepower, almost 200 less horsepower. The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster exterior also features the wonderful scissor doors, side air scoops that automatically open up at speed, a rear spoiler that can be adjusted to an angle of 70 degrees, folding side mirrors for increased aerodynamics, and electronic Launch Control are also included.

Lamborghini is always understand what goes into making something that is full of luxury and power. The Murcielago and the Gallardo are two of their most popular models. One that is fairly new to the industry is the Superleggera. This car was debuted during the 2007 Geneva Auto Show to compete against the up and coming Ferrari 430 Scuderia. Superleggera: super light model was a tribute to the very first Lamborghini model - the 350GT.

Superleggera is equipped with an improved intake, exhaust, and ECU that push it to 520 horsepower. All of this is connected to the six speed e-gear transmission that comes standard with it. This is great for many consumers who no longer have to spend $10,000 to add it to the car.

This Italian Sport Car costs more then $200,000 and was released in June of 2007. During that time 172 units were made and purchased. However, since then Lamborghini has discontinued it. What separates this from other models is how lightweight it is. It is lighter then most models by almost 220 pounds. In order to make this possible Lamborghini used carbon fiber panels on the rear diffuser, interior door panels, central tunnel, sport seats, engine cover, and the undertray.

The Next Italian Spot car is The Lamborghini Gallardo. It was named after a line of famous bulls. After the takeover of the company by Audi the cars were still high performance cars but now they were user friendly. The cost of the car is around the same as 30 Honda Avanza’s but if you are wanting to know how much this car is then this car is probably not for you. The Lamborghini Gallardo is 4 wheel drive and it needs it to be as there is so much power it needs to ensure all 4 wheels are glued to the floor.

When you take the The Lamborghini Gallardo on the track your first thought maybe to get the traction control off but you can really drive this with all the control aids on and still have a great time. It provides blistering performance as well as great handling, a 5 litre V10 engine and very grippy brakes. The Lamborghini Gallardo has 6 speed transmission paddle shift similar to the ones in Maserati’s and Ferrari’s. The body shape is more shaped and more defined. Overall it is a much more practical car than it’s Lamborghini predecessors.

There is also a convertible version named the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder and this really brings the madness back. The Gallardo was a high performance car but it was practical and sensible. This Italian sport car version is still practical and is meant to be quiet at low speeds.
