Lamborghini Teaser Paris

Today, Lamborghini released a teaser photo of a new car that will be on display at next month’s Paris Motor Show. Unfortunately, this is the entire press release, if we can call it that way:

The official press release and pictures will be available from 1 October, 21.00 hours Central European Time, and available during Paris motor show press days. We welcome you to the Lamborghini stand on press days, 2 and 3 of October. Hall 4, stand 110

So, what do you think this will be? If you ask us, judging by that rear look, we’d put our money on a redesigned Murcielago or its replacement. One thing’s for sure, on September 2, the first press day of the French show, we’ll be there and find out what’s all this about.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Tuning Edo Competition

Last time German tuner Edo Competition messed up with the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640, they managed to squeeze 23 hp more from the engine and, with a total of 663 hp, the car clocked 345.7 km/h (214.8 mph) on the test track in Nardo, Italy, which is the highest speed a Lamborghini ever reached. Despite all that, the guys over at Edo weren’t satisifed and decided to give it another upgrade. This time, they managed to increase the power output by 47 hp more, which means that the LP640 by Edo develops an impressive 710 hp and 700 Nm (516 ft-lb).

Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) is done in 3.2 seconds, 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in under seconds and the estimated top speed is 360 km/h (224 mph). The extra performance was possible through new exhaust headers, new high flow catalytic converters, new mufflers, a new exhaust tip, new performance camshafts, modified cylinder heads and new high flow air filters plus reprogrammed engine controls, plus.

219 MPH in a Lamborghini Murcielago LP640

Here’s a video from YouTube, of a young dude with a lot more money than brains, who takes his Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 to 219 mph (that’s 352 km/h). That’s impressive, however, on e advice for him: Dude, if you really want to push your car to the limits, go on a track, not on the streets! Because we’d feel sorry if you’d end up like this (not to mention, you could also hurt other innocent people!). Any message for this guy? Leave it here.

Lamborghini working on lightweight Murcielago SV

Lamborghini Murcielago SV

According to Autocar, Lamborghini is working on a superlight version of the Murcielago. Seen as a glorious end to its production (the Murcielago is scheduled to get out of production), the Murcielago SV will be about 130 kg lighter than the current LP640 and it seems it will be more powerful than the million Euro Reventon (they talk of about 680 hp for the SV).

So, how the Lmaborghini engineers plan on doing this? Well, the SV will be a RWD model, and the weight difference is made by removing the front differential and driveshaft (40 kilos removed) and more weight will be dropped by using carbon fiber for both the interior and the exterior, new forged alloy wheels, which will also save at least 6 kg. Also, Lamborghini will drop the multimedia system and, to be honest, at how that engine sounds, who needs it?

So you thought those London cabs were fancy? Well you haven’t seen this one. How would you like a ride in this $300,000 Lamborghini Murcielago. With this car going from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.6 seconds and a top speed of over 200 mph (320 km/h) I think you’d get where you want pretty fast. Wonder how much would cost?
