2009 Lamborghini Murcielago Sports

latest supercar to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. The quarter mile comes just a few beats later — 11.4 seconds at 126.9 mph. Both numbers are pretty far off the pace of Lamborghini’s estimates of 3.7 and 11.8 seconds. Who knew Italians could be so conservative?
Inside the low-roofed cabin, the LP560-4’s attempt to violate Newton’s second law is a comprehensive assault on the senses. Getting kicked in the ass a split second before being shot from a cannon is probably the closest approximation. The only thing missing is the taste of cordite upon the lips.
Thrust mode is impressive not just at mere sports car speeds; unlike the previous Gallardo launch control system that required manually shifting the gears, a Thrust-moded Gallardo LP560-4 will autorocket through all six gears on the way to a terminal velocity of 202 mph.
Just what you’d expect from a $201,000 supercar, right? Wait, there’s more…
