Sub'd...thx!

[2005 Murci Roadster 3 pedal car Info needed]

The VIN your referencing belongs to a car from Driven Emotions in FL. I found that odd also.

That car is currently on eBay...

yeah, you're right. In fact, if you look at the ad photos for both cars, the seller copied the photo of the build sheet of the Driving Emotions car (ZHWBU26M55LA01342) and pasted it on their site.......

[2005 Murci Roadster 3 pedal car Info needed]

I'd stay away from this one but that's just my opinion. Call to the dealer gave me a bad vibe. The VIN shown on the factory build sheet (ZHWBU26M55LA01342) doesn't jive with the one referenced by the dealer in the sales ad (ZHWBU26M85LA01352). According to www.lp112.com, ZHWBU26M85LA01352 belongs to an Azzurro Aquarius painted 6-speed roadster. Anyway, would definitely scrutinize this one in person and extra carefully FWIW.

wow Ed......beautiful twins....the grey ghosts!

[6 Speed Roadster WOW]

Let me make it clear as this statement is mis-leading.

 

There were a TOTAL of 26 MANUAL LP640 cars produced for the USA from 07-09.

4 were 09 Roadsters

I think the number of 12 damaged or gone is correct

Also correct that at least 3 are back on the road with Salvage titles now

 

same time period 5 manual cars to Canada NO 09 or 10 Manual cars to Canada..only 07 and 08 cars

 

 

3 SV Manual USA for 2010 ( 1 totaled so 2 left)

 

Wasn't able to get the serial number to confirm but Autotrader (Canada) and Kijiji had ads back in 2014 for a 2009 Canadian LP640 gated 6-speed roadster in balloon white. Car was listed at $230K by Signature Motors in Toronto. I have no idea what it sold for. Here's the ad from Kijiji:

2009 LAMBORGHINI MURCIELAGO ROADSTER**WITH ONLY 2900KMS.**CANADIAN VEHICLE**VERY RARE IN A 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION**FULL CARBON FIBRE**BACK UP CAMERA**NAVIGATION**COLOUR MATCHED WHEELS**CERAMIC BRAKES**FULL EXHAUST**LOCAL CAR**ABSOLUTELY STUNNING**FINANCE AND LEASE AVAILABLE STARTING 3.99% OAC.

Thanks Whiteout. I've noticed a couple of drops of power steering fluid on the garage floor after longer-term storage and thought it was the rack but now I'll take a closer look at this area.

Congrats Ed and thanks for this evening's reading entertainment...

[Murcie stock wheels....now what??]

What is the manufacture date of the closeout priced fronts?

Thanks for the info about a new manufacture batch.

per tire rack: "44th week of 2014" ...so first week of November

[Murcie stock wheels....now what??]

Ok so now I'm thinking the only option is to go back to stock 18s. Now I can't source the tires!!! Feel like I can't win with this car!! Does anyone know a supplier to get tires from? Not interested in a RWD solution at this time. Just want to take the car back to stock. Would still consider another 19/20 setup if someone has something ready to go.

Hang on for another month if you want the 18" OE Rosso rear tires. I've been looking/waiting for months and after talking to Tire Rack who called Pirelli, a new batch is coming in September. I just placed an order today for the front/rears on Tire Rack with a 9-7-16 ship date. The fronts are in stock and closeout priced. This ship date could change by a few days but should be close.
