2008 LAMBORGHINI MURCIELAGO LP640: The Murciélago LP640, which refers to its engine position -Longitudinal Position- and to its 640 hp, is the most extreme and fastest sports car in its class. Designers and engineers have reworked the 12-cylinder powerplant from 6.2-liters to 6.5-liters; and linked it to a six-speed gearbox, tougher rear differential and new axle shafts. An e-gear automatic tranny is available, and the LP640 zooms from 0-to-60 mph in 3.4 seconds. Visually, the exotic body is constructed of sheet steel and honeycombed carbon fiber, featuring scissor doors and an exhaust system that terminates in the diffuser on the rear bumper. Inside the two-seater leather upholstered cockpit is a new instrument panel and optional navigation system..
