GT5 Transcripts/Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 '09

The Lamborghini Murcielago made its debut at the 2001 Frankfurt Motor Show as the flagship for the renowned Italian maker. It had big shoes to fill for it was succeeding the legendary V-12 supercars, the Countach and Diablo as the company's top model. The Murcielago, along with the V-10 powered Gallardo introduced at the 2003 Geneva Motor Show, represented a new era for Lamborghini, which blossomed under Audi AG's umbrella.
Five years later, at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show, Audi took the veils off a new, even meaner version of the Murcielago, the LP640Miswritten as "LP460" in the game.. The "LP" in its name stands for Longitudinale Posterion (Longitudinally rear-mounted), while the numerical designation refers to its 631 HP. Actually, the "LP" designation is a traditional one for Lamborghini, dating back to the days of the Countach. As mentioned earlier, the power of the car was 631 HP, up from the stock Murcielago's 572 HP. It came from a 6496-cc DOHC V-12 that transferred the power to all four wheels. The car's performance was nothing short of extraordinary, going from zero to 62 mph in 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph.
The styling of the Murcielago and Gallardo were penned by Luc Donckerwolke, and for the LP640, that original design was fine tuned, resulting in an edgier supercar-like shape. The most notable differences between the stock Murcielago and the LP640 were the front and rear diffusers and the integration of the exhaust tips within the bumper. The scissor-type doors opened upward, providing a family lineage to the Countach and Diablo. The LP640 lineup included an open-air roadster and a lightweight, high-performance limited-edition model called the LP670-4 Super Veloce.
