Não por acaso não, o lambopower tb esteve em baixo(tiveram alguns problemas com o site) e entao, nao tenho o abito de o visitar. Ando pelo 6speed e teamspeed(têm secçao lambo).

Na teamspeed esta a heffner registada e participa, e na secçao lambo da 6speed esta a underground, cada um a tentar vender o seu peixe, mas que se conste, um belo cherne.

Lamborghini Murciélago SV Coupe

Test date 22 April 2009 Price as tested TBA

What is it?

You are looking at the ultimate version of one of the world’s ultimate supercars, essentially a lighter, faster, more mental version of the already deeply unhinged Murcielago LP640. A proper wild monster it is, too.

Lamborghini’s mission statement over the next few years is to make cars that are lighter, simpler and more faithful to the original core philosophy, so while the styling and performance of the SV are all extremely well and good, what’s most impressive of all about this car is how little it weighs considering how big it is.

Lambo’s engineers looked at every area of the SV to work out how they could shave kilograms, and in the engine bay alone they managed to remove 33kg, mainly by fitting a smaller exhaust and redesigning various aspects of the transmission.

The key thing is, this is where Lamborghini is heading in years to come. Removing weight and improving efficiency – and at the same time reducing emissions – is what will keep the cars relevant and desirable in the future, claim the thinkers at Sant Agata. It’s a simple idea but one that’s extremely hard to disagree with.

Headline stats are not hard to come by with the SV. It weighs 100kg less than the LP640, its V12 engine develops another 29bhp, taking it to 663bhp at 8000rpm in total (a McLaren F1 had 'just' 627bhp when it rewrote the supercar rulebook 15 years ago). Its bodyshell and suspension have also been extensively reworked to help it produce more grip, both mechanically and aerodynamically. It costs, wait for it, a cool 300,000 euros – approximately £275,000 at today’s exchange rate.

What’s it like?

According to Lamborghini the SV will hit 62mph in 3.2sec and 100mph in under seven seconds, going on to reach a top speed of 212mph if you can find the space and have the required size undercarriage to keep your foot planted as the thing starts to oscillate beyond 200mph. I bailed out at just over 206mph, but then the car I drove didn’t have quite the right rear wing fitted for all-out assaults on the sound barrier.

Instead it had what Lamborghini calls the new ‘Aeropack wing’ which dramatically improves high speed stability but also pinches the top speed to a piffling 209mph. Either way, the mighty new SV is genuinely as quick and as barking to drive as it is to look at. It could even be the most exciting supercar this particular author has ever driven, although maybe – just possibly – it’s still not quite up there with the Ferrari F40. Which is not exactly poor company to be keeping.

What defines the SV dynamically is its more extreme personality, and in the end that’s basically what you’re paying for; a more committed experience in every dimension compared with the not exactly boring LP640.

Just 350 will be made by the factory at Sant Agata, the vast majority of which will go to the United States. Only a handful will make it to the UK.
On the road it feels very big, very fast, very intimidating and very special. The noise is quite nuts, even at low speeds, while the ride isn’t exactly what you’d call smooth. It feels like a car that’s been released into the world, having driven straight out of the pit complex at Le Mans.

Having said that, the lack of weight does make a huge and very positive difference to its responses, be that on road or track. It feels agile and alert in a way that the regular LP640 could never replicate. And the steering and brakes are just delicious, as good as anything you’ll ever come across in a road car.

Should I buy one?

For 350 very lucky people the SV is going to satisfy on a level that’s not available from many other car makers, not at any price. And the great thing is, this is just the beginning of a brave new era at Lamborghini.
It’s a fantastically extreme car for amazingly rich and rare occasions – right now there is nothing else quite like it. If this is the way forward for Lamborghini, the future looks very bright indeed. And that’s before you even mention the soundtrack.

A leaner, meaner Murcielago, the SV is the best of the series. Ferrari’s lighter and plain brilliant 430 Scuderia matches it dynamically but certainly not for aural and visual wows.

Dar 2 segundos a um GT2 por volta, ainda por cima numa pista relativamente pequena, comparando com o Ring por exemplo, parece que o carro está uns bons furos acima do normal Lp640, pois esse acho que nem conseguia ser mais rápido que um Gt2, pelo menos no Ring não era, noutras pistas não sei.

Lamborghini anuncia o desenvolvimento de um veículo híbrido.

press release:

LAMBORGHINI ANNOUNCES NEW, AMBITIOUS PROGRAMS FOR REDUCING CO2

• 35 million Euros investments
• The construction of a large photovoltaic plant, combined with an energy-saving project, will achieve a 30% reduction in the factory's CO2 emissions by 2010
• Modifications to vehicles will result in a 35% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2015

Automobili Lamborghini announces its intention to complete its program of environmental sustainability in record time by presenting new plans which will enable the company:

• to achieve a 30% reduction, by the year 2010, in the CO2 emissions produced by its factory
• to achieve a 35% reduction, by the year 2015, in the CO2 emissions produced by its vehicles

The plans for reducing emissions will thus involve two areas: modifications to the Lamborghini factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese, and development in vehicle design.


To redefine its industrial processes in accordance with its policy of environmental sustainability, Lamborghini has just begun a project to complete installation of a large photovoltaic system by the end of 2009.
The roof-top plant will produce 1,582 Megawatt hour (MWh) of "green" energy per year, which translates into a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions (-1,067,820 Kg/year) by 2010.


The photovoltaic systems will have a total installed power rating of 1,4 Megawatts and will extend over 17,000 m2 throughout the entire industrial area. The new system will be built by Sinergia Sistemi S.p.A.


At the same time, an equally important energy conservation project involving insulating the production facility's whole roof, improving lighting and heating and introducing destratification systems for heated air will be completed, thus resulting in a 10% energy usage reduction by 2010.
These projects represent the next step in a program that began last year with the opening of the new Lamborghini

Logistics Center. The Center has already contributed to diminishing the impact caused by heavy truck traffic on the roads between Anzola and Sant'Agata Bolognese. It is calculated that this facility has achieved a reduction of emissions by over 75 kg per annum, and nitrogen oxide by over 750 kg (Sources: Standard Euro 3).


In April 2009 Lamborghini obtained the UNI EN ISO 14001 certificate, meeting the international environmental standards. It is also the first firm in the Italian automotive sector to be close to registering for the EMAS environment certificate, having successfully completed the program: EMAS regulations are set by the European Union to support organisations in their effort to evaluate and improve their own environmental efficiency.
These recent achievements support Lamborghini's commitment to protecting the environment in which it operates, and its desire to make all stakeholders aware of its actions in a transparent manner.


With regard to Lamborghini vehicles, the CO2 reduction plan aims for an additional 35% decrease in emissions by the year 2015.
The program reached its first milestone with the Gallardo LP 560-4. Introduced last year, the new car's technical advancements resulted in an 18% reduction in CO2 emissions.


At this point, Research & Development activities will continue in the following directions:

• decreasing vehicle mass
• improving combustion
• reducing friction
• Start-and-Stop systems
• hybrid drive train solutions
• biofuels

Lamborghini's commitment and its sense of social responsibility regarding the environment is evidenced by the numbers and by the sheer size of the investments that are planned. 35 million Euros will be appropriated over the next five years for this purpose.


Stephan Winkelmann, the President and CEO of Lamborghini, has said, "Despite the difficult situation in today's global economy, Lamborghini is committed to its policy of environmental management, since we are well aware of the great opportunities that derive from it. We have an objective to reduce CO2 emissions to the greatest possible degree. We have also set compulsory annual goals that are part of an integrated approach both considering the automobile as an element which is more considerate of the environment, in terms of emissions and the use of resources, to the accomplishment of a series of corresponding measures such as modifications to our factory. This is an important action for Lamborghini and a central opportunity for our long term corporate and product development."


European Parliamentarian Guido Sacconi, President of the European Commission on Climate Change, recently paid a visit to Lamborghini headquarters in Sant'Agata. At that time, he said that, "The commitment shown by Lamborghini with its efforts to reduce environmental impact and develop vehicles with less polluting technologies confirm the company's goal of following the right path toward complying with the directives of the European Union. To safeguard the DNA, history and technology of niche car manufacturers on a European level, a series of exceptions have been passed for manufactures of 'specialty' vehicles (with fewer than 10,000 new cars made per year) who run their own production facilities and design centres, even though they are part of a group of associated producers.


This is the exact situation in which Lamborghini finds itself. We have been particularly satisfied with the actions it has taken thus far, because they illustrate this company's desire to embrace a new industrial vision which combines competitiveness and performance with social responsibility."


Partner companies:
Located in Casalecchio di Reno, Sinergia Sistemi S.p.A. is a leader on the Italian market of services that help companies save energy. The company specializes in energy certification of buildings and the construction of large systems that take advantage of renewable energy sources. Sinergia Sistemi also acts as an E.S.Co. (Energy Service Company) that finances the plant systems and energy requalification projects it offers to its customers, in a relationship of total Energy Management.


The finalized project was built from a design based on a preliminary study carried out by the CENER National Center for Renewable Forms of Energy of Spain. This study involved a broad evaluation of the feasibility and size of the project.

Só tenho dois pontos a acrescentar a este topico:

1 - O meu carro de sonho foi, é e sempre será o Lamborghini Countach.Porque escolhi eu este modelo?Bem, primeiro devido ao facto de para a geração nascida na decada de 70 ter sonhado todas as noites com um(era o carro mais espectacular do seu tempo) e segundo a meu ver o Murciélago,tal como o Diablo,são as evoluções naturais do Countach.

2 - Tou radiante de o meu carro novo ter um tablier á la Lamborghini...

Um F430 é ligeiramente mais eficaz mas de estética menos exclusiva.

Mas fora dos supercars a referência desportiva é o F430, por isso para o Gallardo estar como o mais próximo do F430 é elogioso.

Felizmente já tive opurtunidade de andar num F430 e em 2 Gallardos e posso dizer que o Gallardo é superior ao F430.
A diferença entre o V8 e o V10 sente-se e de que maneira...a força do Lambo é muito superior à do Ferrari assim como a aderência em curva e arranque, isto devido à sua tracção integral.
Em termos de sonoridade, o Ferrari é talvez mais contido do que o Lambo...para ser sincero fiquei bastante desiludido com o Ferrari...A unica coisa que o Ferrari tem de melhor é a possibilidade de fazer brincadeiras com a traseira...
Abraços
