The Lamborghini Murcielago Base for 2006: Improving on 2005

Buyers of the Lamborghini Murcielago are aware of the reputation of the car they are purchasing. The Murcielago has been one of the premier vehicles of the Lamborghini line for years. It is considered an institution of a car and the 2006 model is no exception. The Lamborghini Murcielago falls into the coupe for the family category. People who purchase the Murcielago have been doing so for the last few generations in a family. It is a constant that only gets better with age.
Performance
The Murcielago Base is equipped with a Lamborghini 6.2 liter twelve -cylinder engine that utilizes 48 valves. The engine is mated to a Lamborghini 6-speed Transaxle. This configuration has proven to be a successful design for Lamborghini.
The fuel system for the 2006 Murcielago is a Lamborghini LIE design, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel flow is regulated by a electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The storage capacity of the fuel tank is 26.40 gallons.
Steering control is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The Murcielago has power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. The car uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.
Murcielago Base Statistics
The Murcielago is 180.30 inches long, 80.50 inches wide, and 44.70 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 104.90 inches. It is able to seat 2 comfortably.
The listed retail price in 2006 (MSRP) was $288,000, with an invoice cost of an industry-low price. This price is above average of the industry average price for a two-door Coupe.
There is a 24,000 mile, 24 month warranty with this vehicle, including a powertrain warranty of 24,000/24 miles/months. This is normal for this price range.
Fuel Efficiency
The Murcielago Base received a miles-per-gallon rating of 9 - 10 in-city driving and 13 - 15 when it came to long-distance. Being a gas-powered non-green car, this was subpar.
Conclusion
The 2006 model year was unsuccessful for the Lamborghini Murcielago. The introduction of several trim levels (along with the Base version) meant that buyers had several options to choose from..

Blah
Has anyone put any serious mileage on this coupe? Just need to know…
Good article. At first I felt like I needed to refute your review of the Lamborghini Murcielago, but after further reflection I can see your point of view. Perhaps my personal Murcielago Base is an abberation. What is everyone else’s experiences?
