If you love cars, you surely consider the actual production a special process. Things get even more special when the object of production is an exotic car, say a Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV.

The National Geographic channel has just started airing its new series of Ultimate Factories, kicking things off by following the production of a Lamborghini Murcielago SV. We have the videos for you below.

The Lamborghini special will be followed tomorrow by a by Rolls-Royce episode, with Camaro and Porsche episodes coming soon:

Next Lambo Murciélago to be 'green'

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | September 03, 2009 | In green lamborghini news supercars

British magazine AutoEXPRESS brings us these renderings of the next, all-new Lamborghini Murciélago. The current car is already one of the most appropriate bearers of the 'supercar' moniker, so the next Murci will have to be something special in order to continue the tradition of a species that Lamborghini created with the Miura. If the pictures are anything to go by, the new car will still stun with its aggressive beauty.

Not surprisingly, the next ultimate Lambo will draw heavily from parent Audi's technological know-how. This will include an aluminum spaceframe chassis and carbon-fiber body parts. The car ...

VIDEO: 1100 hp Heffner Lamborghini Murcielago

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | September 02, 2009 | In lamborghini supercars tuners videos



If you thought Germany was the only country home to mad tuning houses, think again. The folks at Sarasota, FL-based Heffner Performance are certified, which is the best compliment a car guy can pay another group of car nuts. What you see here is a twin-turbo, 100 hp Lamborghini Murcielago created by Heffner.

One of the most amazing details of the car is that the monstrous amount of horsepower is put down via only the rear wheels, even though Lamborghini insists on four-wheel drive for most Murcielagos.

You can hear the car’s astounding engine sounds in the first video ...

VIDEO: Corvette ZR-1 chases Lambo SV

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | August 12, 2009 | In chevrolet lamborghini videos

A couple of weeks ago, British magazine Autocar posted a mystery video showing a Corvette ZR-1 chasing an obviously fast car. Autocar editors wanted to know whether car fans could guess what car the Vette was following.

Now you can see for yourself: the ZR-1 tries to keep up with the latest, greatest, last iteration of the Lamborghini Murciélago, the LP 670-4 SV. Two completely different cars, fairly evenly matched. Enjoy the little game between a true supercar and one of the best bang-for-the-buck cars on earth.

VIDEO: Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | July 16, 2009 | In lamborghini supercars videos

What, ANOTHER review of the last Murciélago? We featured the TopGear video of the 670 hp monster last week. However, I am so saddened by the imminent retirement of this beast that I am scouring the intertubes for any video of it I can get my eyeballs on.

In case you do not know, the engine in the Murciélago is related to the very first V12 Lambo used in the iconic Miura back in the 60's, but it is almost certain that with the departure of the Murciélago, this historic engine block will die too, to ...

VIDEO: Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV in the desert

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | June 30, 2009 | In audi lamborghini supercars videos



This headline should read 'video of Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV makes grown man weep from envy.' The grown man would be, well, me. And the video would be by none other than those damn lucky Brits at the BBC.

I serve at your pleasure, so far be it from me not to shamelessly share with you another pirated clip of TopGear that had my heart racing earlier today. Watch Hammond wring out the last in line of the glorious Murciélago line that will be replaced by what is surely to be a capable, modern but less outrageous ...

Stunning Lamborghini Insecta has us swooning

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | March 09, 2009 | In concept cars lamborghini news supercars

The simply irresistible, achingly-beautiful car you see here is the Lamborghini Insecta, the work of a freelance Romanian designer named Iulian Bumbu. As the name of the concept suggest, Bumbu took his inspiration from the exoskeleton of insects for what he calls an organic shape.

Do you all agree that Lamborghini should buy the design and build it exactly as is (except, in the name of all holy cows, NOT in Barney purple)? We certainly do. The Insecta has been built around a Gallardo chassis and mechanicals, so making it a reality is not that far a stretch.

We will ...
