Presented as a concept car in 2003 in Detroit – where it
generated significant interest among Italian supercar enthusiasts – the
production version of the Murciélago Roadster will make its official debut at
the Geneva Show 2004. Manufacture and sales are planned for the second half of
this year for the Roadster.
The latest arrival at the House of the Raging Bull takes its inspiration from
the great Italian tradition of open vehicles.
As powerful, fast and extreme as the Coupé version from which it derives, the
Lamborghini Murciélago carries on Lamborghini’s twelve cylinder roadster
tradition: from the 350 GTS to the Miura Roadster, right up to the most recent
Diablo Roadster.
This has been achieved without compromising the performance expected from a real
Lamborghini. Thanks to accurate design, the open version also delivers excellent
handling, acceleration and driving safety characteristics.
The Murciélago Roadster version builds on the extreme and exclusive features of
the Coupé thus confirming it as a real “icon” of the Lamborghini brand.
The new Lamborghini era started in 2001 with the Murciélago, followed in 2003 by
the Gallardo, continues with the arrival in 2004 of the Murciélago Roadster,
which enhances and further increases the undisputed value of the Murciélago
range.
