  2. "I highly doubt this Murcielago SV to be unveiled in Paris. Check out the listing, it says '10' model, that should mean model year 2010 ! That won't be shown in october 2008, more likely September 2009 in Frankfurt ... if it will be introduced. If you take a look at the teaser shot from Lamborghini you'll see it is too different from the Murcielago to be an evolution of this model, more likely a successor or even a competely different, third model to the line up. I know people have been waiting for the Murcielago Superleggera or SV for years now, hoping for rear wheel drive only ... but Winkelmann insists thet all factory Bulls will have the VT transmission, so that's out of the equation too. Also note that the name 'Superleggera' is owned by Touring, and Autombili Lamborghii SpA is currently already in legal battle over the name, hence the Gallardo Superleggera production was halted, although officially this was because the LP560-4 was introduced. I would bet on a 2+2 GT or a 4 seater with the engine up front ... that would be a great addition to the line up, for an SUV the teaser shot sits too low to the ground I think. But that's just my idea, I'll see first hand in Paris in two weeks ... "
  3. polls: 1º SV now in France. 25% 2º SV in Frankfurt this year and "new" concept in France. 40% 3º SV and "new" concept in France. 10% 4º New concept in France 25%
  4. Frankfurt for SV, I'm believe. Maybe 2 new models? Maybe too

  6. "My guess will be a successor to the Murcielago at the 2009 Frankfurt motor show, for 2010 production, no SV or Superleggera model (definitely no Superleggera anymore as Lamborghini is in legal battle over the name right now ! The Swiss owners of the Touring Superleggera name sued them) If you take a look at the teaser shot from Lamborghini it sure isn't a Murciélago evolution, my guess would be a 2+2 gt or even four seater with a front mounted engine. "
  7. No, I'm not work for Lamborghini. Lamborghini its my hobbie. Source of that? F-Chat.
  8. "Lamborghini’s top brass swore blind at the launch of the Gallardo that there was no stripped-out Murcielago LP640 waiting in the wings. ‘The LP640 is wild enough,’ Stephan Winkelmann, Lamborghini’s president told Car Magazine. But he’s obviously changed his mind – as these pictures prove as evidence. Despite the impenetrable ring of secrecy surrounding the development of this new iteration – no one at Lamborghini will officially acknowledge its existence – sources claim the LP640 will not adopt the Superleggera name, but rather the more hallowed Superveloce badge. First seen on the last of the Miura P400 (the one without the eyelashes around its headlamps) and later on the Diablo SV (Sport Veloce which lacked the VT’s all-wheel-drive system). Superveloce is Italian for high speed… Expect it to bow in at the Frankfurt Motor Show this coming September, wearing a brash £230,000 price tag. Although the LP640 is due for a final swan-song power hike before its Walter de’Silva-penned replacement arrives at the turn of the decade, it’s thought that the LP640 SV will go on an extreme diet and rely on a lower kerb weight and shorter gear ratios to give it even more ferocious in-gear go from its mid-mounted 6.5-litre V12. Like the Gallardo Superleggera, the LP640 SV’s curb weight will drop by an anticipated 100kg to 1565kg, boosting its power-to-weight ratio to 409bhp per tonne. Fitting carbon ceramic brakes, stripping the cabin of everything but the essentials and even using titanium wheel nuts (like on the Gallardo Superleggera) should easily take care of the necessary weight loss, but the LP640 SV will retain its all-wheel-drive layout. The weight reduction comes from swapping out a number of components with carbon fiber bits, like the door panels, engine cover, wing, mirrors and the central tunnel covering. Lamborghini is expecting to loose about 100-150 kg with this operation giving the Superleggera a weight of 1500-1550 kg instead of the 1665 kg of the LP640. Whether the gigantic wing in the back will be an option like on the Gallardo, or whether it will be standard is uncertain. But with power likely to be reaching 700 bhp and with the lighter body it can be expected that the Superleggera will reach a top speed of 350 km/h in which case it could use as much help as possible to keep it on the track."
  9. A GT 2+2 with carbom parts its very strange. My vote its for "SV"
  10. My idea its about LP640-4 or LP640-2 Gallardo now not small Brother of Murciélago, but of Reventón. Murciélago now in this way? Let's wait day 1.

  12. Im' receive one @ of one friend: "This was my thought. It's too close to the launch of LP560-4 to have another Gallardo version, so we can rule this model out. It can't be a new model as we haven't seen any prototypes testing. The exhaust looks like it would fit a Murcie & the car is low to the ground/big. The mesh would then add the LP560-4 'family' styling to a revised Murcie. However the "it's a new world" line confuses me. A Murcie SV wouldn't really be "a new world", its just an improved version of a well-established model?"
  13. The press picture you'll see carbom, I'm not 100% sure, but for me its a LP640 "SV/Superleggera".
  14. 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. ___________________________ ___________ Repost?!!?
