The Murciélago LP640, introduced for the 2006 model year, was a significant evolution of Lamborghini's V12 flagship. The name signifies its engine position, 'Longitudinale Posteriore,' and its metric horsepower rating of 640 PS (631 hp). Power came from a larger 6.5-liter V12, and the car featured revised front and rear styling, a new single-outlet exhaust, and an updated interior. It was offered as both a coupe and a roadster, with most examples equipped with the 6-speed 'e-gear' automated manual transmission.
Collectors prize the LP640 for being one of the last truly raw V12 Lamborghinis, offering a more visceral driving experience than the later Aventador. Its place as the ultimate evolution of the Murciélago platform makes it highly desirable. The key value driver is the transmission; cars equipped with the traditional 6-speed gated manual are exceptionally rare and represent the pinnacle of collectibility for this model. These manual cars are among the most sought-after modern V12s from any brand.
The market for the LP640 is strong, with an average sale price over $300,000. There's a massive price disparity between standard e-gear cars and the rare 6-speed manuals. A pristine, low-mileage manual coupe can sell for more than double the price of a comparable e-gear car, as evidenced by sales approaching the $1 million mark. As appreciation for analog supercars grows, values for the best examples, particularly manuals, are expected to continue their upward trend.
Buying Tips
- The 6-speed manual is the collector's choice and commands a huge premium, but the e-gear automated manual is far more common. A pre-purchase inspection must include a diagnostic scan to check the e-gear system's health and remaining clutch life, as replacement is costly.
- A complete and documented service history is non-negotiable. Major services are expensive, so ensure the car has been maintained by a qualified specialist, paying close attention to records for fluid changes and any clutch work.
- Test the front axle lift system thoroughly during inspection. It's a highly useful option that's prone to hydraulic leaks and electronic failures, and repairs are expensive.
- If the car has optional Carbon Ceramic Brakes, have them professionally inspected for chipping and wear. Replacing the rotors and pads is exceptionally expensive, often exceeding $20,000.
Prices range from approximately $147,000 for high-mileage examples to $900,000 for pristine, low-mileage manual transmission cars.
