How soon will we see a more powerful Murci . . .

[SuPeRcAr_MaN]

I was wondering how long it took for second versions of the Countach or Diablo to come out. Maybe then we can estamate how long it will be before we see the next Murci, and eventually Gallardo.

but i think the murcielago will come up with a better one alot faster than they did with the countach because back then they had boot-leg technology

Regular murci isn't fast enough anymore?

well it is fast enough....
don´t think always faster better bigger...

Well for the diablo, it wook 3 years to introduce the VT... not that that will happen with the murci as it obvoiusly allready has AWD. However the SV wasnt introduced until '95, and updated for the '99 model... that means.. an SV 2006-7 dang.

Anyway, i expect from the SV around 600bhp, power isnt everything people... There is a reason these cars dont cost as much as the Enzo, zonda etc.. unless i was super rich i wouldnt care that the lambo's wernt quite as good as the super super cars, because they they come with a more achievable price. best performance for your $ of the super cars really.

I expect the Murci to exceed no more than 630-650 bhp... and that would be most likely in the last models. seeing the diablo over its life (through different road models) gained around 60bhp.. Gt versions may be a different story, but remember, the diablo gt/gtr models wernt released until 9 years after the diablo.....I wouldnt even to begine to compare to the countach, to long ago and so much has changed... and remember lambo is in a position it has never been, i would expect a SV around 2005 and hopefully a Gt not long after with the 'financial' position lambo are in at the moment.

I hope to god they NEVER turbo charge a Lambo, at least not their top of the line model. It just would not be the same. We need a large displacement V12.

Just to be clear, Tony, did they say they would probably be turbo charging a future model???

[Vt Fusion]

No he said they will most definatley not be... and i could have told you that without talking to some guy who works for lambo hehe

Also another interesting thing to note, lambo found it very easy to get 100bhp/l with the gallardo, so if they manage to do this with the Murci.. thats 620BHP damn they just have to do that, and with an alloy frame and e-gear, that would be a nice murci probably capable of breaking all the official lambo records.

He said the would not be turbo charging. He didn't speculate on the possible BHPs.

They should be able to squeeze more from a 6.2L V12

Yes ofcourse they could, they could squuze 1000bhp if they wanted to, but its not practical for many reasons.. The one i was reffering to was cost... up until now no regular road model lambo has had 100bhp/l The Gallardo however does, this means we know they can get 100bhp/l out of their engines without costing enough to put their profit down or the cars price way up. The next thing is performance, this car may not perform all that well with 700bhp, and ofcourse 700bhp would require some major tuning costing them alot more in production prices. OFcourse 700bhp may be going to far, the Mclaren f1 got 640 or so from a 6L engine, and maybe thats is one of the reasons the car costs so much? Theres always more to the story.

620 seems fine, with lighter weight from the alloy frame the car could probably get 0-60mph in 3.4 secs but most likely 3.5... and a top speed of well over 350kmp/h, but more likely 340... the more likely is basically what lambo would gear it down to, they just seem to do this stuff. But maybe like the Vt6.0 and other models they could offer an aulternate geared model... the regeared 575bhp Vt6.0 top speed was 357kmp/h!!! so..... new murc regeared top speed say 390kmp/h... lol

Good point. Remeber though that their goal while making the murci was to create the perfect GT car, not the fastest or most exotic. Thats probably why they didn't squeeze as much power as they could out of the engine. But now that they have made the perfect GT car....

I agree with you 100%. The Murci is a car that can do it all with nearly as much comfort as the 575M and near class leading speed and handling.

Of course there are cars that handle better (Lotus Elise), cars that are faster (Zonda), and cars that are more comfortable (CL55), but there are few that can do it all so well and look so good doing it.

oh well, i think the murcielago is perfect enough for me , but i would just like them to go reach 600bhp at least because there about 25hp away from reaching the next 100hp and make it look a little more vicious:twoguns:!

There is going to be a Lambo without the Lambo doors?

Also, every model Lamborghini has ever made (especially the Countach, because it lasted 15 years!) has seen countless improvements over the years. Also, the looks got better.
