When it comes to a sleek look, comfort, and superior driving power, the brand-new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster comes closer to perfection than any other car manufactured for the year 2008.

However, there is something quite new with the Roadster’s rear: its tailpipe-integrated exhaust system. The car would be as visible as it is during daytime with the new rear lights that increase its distinguishing factors.
The Roadster’s body has an asymmetrical shape, giving it a more aerodynamic look. Its right air inlet is closed while the left is left open for ventilation of the oil cooler. The car’s wipers have been broadened and it has Hermera alloy wheels.
