The descendant of the “Miura”, nephew of the “Countach” and heir of the “Diablo”, the sportscars that have made the history of Lamborghini, the “Murciélago” updates – in respect of traditions – a way of building a supercar that is only found in the land of Emilia and this "last of the Manual V12" is fast becoming a highly collectible car.
Styled by Luc Donckerwalke, the Lamborghini head of design at the time, the Lamborghini Murciélago was the successor to the Diablo and the flagship of the Lamborghini’s lineup. The Murciélago was introduced as a coupé, unveiled to the public at the Frankfurt Motor show in September of 2001. It was Lamborghini’s first new design in eleven years and was also the brand’s first new model under the ownership of German parent company Audi. With Audi’s takeover of the celebrated Lamborghini brand, this marked a return to profitability for the company thanks to increased reliability and quality control at the hands of the German manufacturing giant. The Murciélago was the first Lamborghini to benefit from these improvements and this proved to resonate with customers, and 4,099 Murciélagos of all kinds were built during the model’s production run. Six-speed manual Murciélagos have long been in demand for the analog driving experience they provide, with 580 bhp on tap managed through a four-wheel-drive system, a V12 exhaust note that is widely regarded to be the best of any of the modern-day supercars, this car begs to be exercised on the open road. Built in 2003 model year, this Murciélago is outfitted with the desirable six-speed manual transmission. The car is tastefully painted black and customized to add to its visual panache. Custom features include gunmetal grey powder-coated LP640 wheels (Original wheels included) with black powder-coated brake calipers. Inside, the theme continues, the Murciélago is trimmed in black carpet over black leather. The car presents very well throughout with few signs of wear, corresponding with the 16,000 Miles showing on the odometer. Purchased by the consignor in 2015, the car was serviced annually. This First-generation Murciélagos were produced between 2001 and 2006, powered by a Lamborghini V12 that traces its roots back to the company’s beginnings in the 1960s. The V12 engine produced 572 hp and powered the car to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds. With an angular design, exceptionally low body and scissor doors carried over from earlier models, the Murciélago continuing the extreme looks Lamborghinis are so well known for.
