Yep, hence why people are saying the lp640 is just a 'band-aid' till the 'all new' murciélago in 08

[andysv]

so is the 08/660 the new engine that's been on the agenda a while?
sounds an audi based lump?

[mr_c]

I presume it will be a new shape Murcie that the engine goes in?

i'm now putting my name down for a lightly used?? 1 to 2 year old 640 once the 660 has knocked the prices a little. heres hoping.

Thats what I want:
Cheap lightly used LP640 in white with red leather, carbon pack, glass cover, black wheels
that will be nice and easy to find

I hope the introduction of the '08 destroys the secondhand price of the original Murcie........ only cause I want one so bad

Mark at Lambo Manch reckons that Factory stated motor is good for over 700HP, but they 'de-tuned' it as the chassis can't handle anymore power than that!!

During the summer I saw a Gallardo at the factory with a sticker in the screen saying 716! Sounded sweet as well

Umm, they also had pics of the new M3 which are infact photochopped pics of a 335i.

Will the new LP660 last an even shorter distance from the dealership into several cars/ traffic lights/ posts/ fields/ hedges??

My thoughts exactly....

I reckon that Lamborghini is running into trouble ungrading cars at a moments notice. No one will trust them including me. Ferrari do not take this line that is why they hold thier value much better. The roadster I have at the moment will be the last. My money is safer with ferrari
