About this car
The 2005 Lamborghini Murciélago Roadster pairs an open-top design with the raw character of a six-speed manual transmission in a rare configuration limited to just 38 factory examples. Finished in Giallo Orion over a Nero interior, this all-wheel-drive convertible carries a 6.2L V12 engine and shows only 1,633 miles. A fresh major service has been completed, and the car is supplied with its complete tool kit.
Designer Luc Donckerwolke shaped the Murciélago Roadster with carbon-fiber bodywork, signature scissor doors, and an electromechanically deployed rear wing and side intakes that adjust for cooling and high-speed stability. The manually fitted canvas top stores neatly in a leather bag within the front compartment, adding just 65 pounds over the coupe while preserving the same 205 MPH top speed capability.
Independent double-wishbone suspension and the viscous-traction all-wheel-drive system deliver the model’s signature handling, with power routed 70 percent to the rear wheels through the gated six-speed manual gearbox.

The Lamborghini Murciélago, produced from 2001 to 2010, is a flagship supercar that succeeded the Diablo and marked a new era under Volkswagen Group ownership. Approximately 4,099 units were built across various trims at Lamborghini’s Sant’Agata Bolognese facility, making it a relatively rare model compared to modern Lamborghini production runs. It debuted with a 6.2-liter V12 engine delivering 572 horsepower, later upgraded to a 6.5-liter V12 in models like the LP 640, producing up to 631 horsepower. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 3.5 seconds and a top speed exceeding 211 mph in later variants.
For exotic car collectors, the Murciélago holds appeal due to its scarcity and historical significance as the first new Lamborghini design of the 21st century. Special editions, such as the LP 670-4 SuperVeloce (limited to 186 units), are particularly coveted for their enhanced performance and exclusivity. Value trends show steady appreciation, with well-maintained examples often fetching between $200,000 and $400,000, depending on condition and variant. Its iconic scissor doors, aggressive styling, and raw driving experience further cement its status as a collector’s item from Lamborghini’s modern lineage.
