Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Superveloce: Not to be called Supperleggera!

Wow, big news that the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 is not going to be named Supperleggera and will receive the Superveloce badge. Sounds better anyway.

So it seems. Lamborghini's top brass swore blind at the launch of the Gallardo that there was no stripped-out Murcielago LP640 waiting in the wings. 'The LP640 is wild enough,' Stephan Winkelmann, Lamborghini's president told us. But he's obviously changed his mind – as our exclusive pictures of this lightweight Lambo special show.

Despite the impenetrable ring of secrecy surrounding the development of this new iteration – no one at Lamborghini will officially acknowledge its existence – our sources claim the LP640 will not adopt the Superleggera name, but rather the more hallowed Superveloce badge.
