Sant’Agata Bolognese, 13th March 2009 - Automobili Lamborghini has released the
first photographs of a limited edition Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster.
The Roadster version of the Murciélago will offer an uprated 6.5 litre V12 engine
that produces 650 hp (478 kW) along with permanent four-wheel drive: hence the
model’s LP 650-4 moniker. With 660 Nm of torque, top performance is at 0-
100km/h (0-62mph) in 3.4 seconds. The top speed is around 330 Km/h (205mph).
The special edition model will be produced in a limited volume (50 units only), with a
Grigio Telesto exterior that combines grey bodywork with a special bright orange
Arancio LP 650-4 featured on the front spoiler and sills. The LP 650-4 logo applied
to the car’s exterior is recognition of the car’s increased power. The car features
orange brake calipers and a transparent V12-engine cover, which shows off the V12
engine behind the driver.
Interior features echo the car's striking grey-and-orange exterior: besides the
orange touches, there is an asymmetric dash design, with black Alcantara Nera on
the driver's side, including door panel and central tunnel, and black leather Nero
Perseus on the passenger's side.
The increased power of the Murciélago engine, from 640 to 650 hp, will be unique
to the Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster: it demonstrates even further the
developments that Lamborghini is able to offer from a current engine, and creates
the exclusive characteristic of the Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster.








I must admit I like the colours, but how many specials are they going to push out before the replacement model comes along??

Agree the colour combo looks awesome!

It's more of less a convertible Reventon without the bodykit... and less than half the price

mmmm, not so keen myself. Prefer the standard one. Is that a small rear window in the pic? It would be a step backwards closing the cock-pit in much like the diablo roadster. Looks like it may be removeable if so anyway.
