The Ad Personam program by Lamborghini is giving owners a chance to customize their already exclusive supercars.
A new shade of light blue, Blu Cepheus, joins the Ad Personam program and is seen here as the exterior paint of the Murcielago LP640 Coupe and Roadster from the 2008 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The pale blue is reminiscent of the naturalistic environment and is deliberately inspired by the purity and transparency of polar ice, while also depicting one of the most glamorous shades in fashion today.
Another novelty of the Ad Personam program is the leather selected for the interiors of the Murcielago LP640 Roadster. In keeping with Tuscany’s prestigious tanning tradition, it is untreated, inspired by the natural leather found on horse saddles and leads to natural changes in color over time, a tendency that confirms its natural state and total absence of treatments.

2007 Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster LP640
Filed under: Auto Shows, Convertibles, Lamborghini, Los Angeles Auto Show
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster benefits from the same extensive modifications to the bodywork and mechanics as the LP640 Coupe, as well as delivering its own distinctive character.
In their re-interpretation of the Roadster, the designers of the Lamborghini Centro Stile have remained true to the original style principles of purism, sportiness and functionality. As with the Coupe it has now assumed a more aggressive appearance, a substantial influence being the new front and rear bumpers. On the latter there is a new rear diffuser, in which the exhaust system is integrated within a tailpipe. The rear lights are also new, increasing the distinguishing features and making the Murcielago Roadster as unmistakable at night as in daylight. The asymmetrical design of the sides is particularly striking. Whilst the area behind the air inlet on the right is almost closed, on the left there is a large opening for the ventilation of the oil cooler. This, in addition to the aerodynamic form of the front and rear, is an illustration of how functionality dictates the shape of a Lamborghini.
Changes to the rear-view mirror to make the Murcielago Roadster more aerodynamic, with other features including new windscreen wipers and the option of new Hermera allow wheels.
The instrument panel has also been redesigned with different graphics. This includes a new Kenwood car radio with a 6.5 inch widescreen monitor and reader for DVD, MP3 and WMA. The navigation system (standard equipment in Japan) is also available as an option.
The maximum speed now lies at 330 km/h compared to 320 km/h. The standard spring from 0 to 100 km/h is now reached by the Murcielago LP640 Roadster in an excellent 3.4 seconds making it 0.4 seconds faster than its forerunner.
Higher performance and torque naturally means increased demand on
impressive delay values under even the hardest strain. The internally ventilated brake disks measure 380 mm x 34 mm at the front and 355 mm x 32 mm at the rear. The closed loop of the four-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS) is enhanced, with electronic braking management (DRP) and traction control (TCS). The system consists of an electro-hydraulic control unit and four sensors for the wheel speeds.
When extremely high performance braking is required it is possible to equip the vehicle with carbon ceramic brakes measuring 380 mm x 36 mm with six-piston-brake calipers, which reduce pressure on the brake pedal and shorten the braking distance. Even under the toughest strain, there is almost no brake fading. Substantially reduced weight and greater durability are further advantages in addition to the carbon ceramic brakes’ attractive appearance.
The new Murcielago LP640 Roadster meets rigorous standards in terms of passive safety. With two front-seat air bags, a 60-litre airbag on the driver’s side and a 130-litre airbag on the passenger side, it meets all existing world-wide standards in the event of head-on and side crashes, impact against poles, occupant safety in the case of accident, duel supply integrity and fuel combustibility. The luggage compartment also complies with the childproof safety regulations. The Murcielago LP640 Roadster has automatically lowered roll bars; if electronic control of this device detects a critical situation, the roll bars shoot out behind the seats within just a few milliseconds.
Lamborghini Murcielago Versace LP640
Filed under: Auto Shows, Lamborghini, Los Angeles Auto Show, Supercars
This exclusive model is the fruit of an innovative collaboration between Gianni Versace SpA and the prestigious luxury sports car works at Sant’ Agata Bolognese.
Working directly with Maison Versace’s designers, the specialists responsible for the Lamborghini’s “ad personam” (personalization) programme have created a model offering significant enhancements to the interior fittings of the standard Murcielago LP640.
The lower section of the instrument panel, the doors, the roof panel, the central console and the seats are all upholstered in opulent full grain nappa, featuring the Greek fret motif, the unmistakable and distinctive emblem of the Maison Versace.
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP460 Versace is equipped with all the optional extras available for this model, as well as specially designed lack “Hermera” wheel rims, carbon finish, an engine hood with transparent glass ribbing, and an e-gear automatic gearbox with sequential shifting system.
To add another dimension of luxury, this limited edition sports car comes supplied with a superb array of exclusively designed, hand-crafted accessories, all made to the exacting standards of the “Couture” line.
The luggage set, composed by two suitcase (for him and for her) and one suit carrier in matt black calfskin adorned with the Greek fret motif, is specially sized to fit in the boot of the Lamborghini Murcielago. On the outside an authentication tag in palladium-finished brass, carrying the distinctive feature of Versace “Couture Limited Edition”, snaps open to reveal, if required, the incised personal details of the owner. The white satin interiors of the luggage are also embroidered with the logo of Versace “Couture Limited Edition”.
Each item bears the same serial number as the car to which it belongs, incised on a tag applied on the inside.
A fabulous pair of driving shoes in blamatt blue calfskin together with a pair of driving gloves will complement the Versace luxurious accessory line.
The “Versace Precious Items” division has exclusively created for the car buyers a Chrono Matt Soft Touch watch, available in a glossy black ceramic version and in a white one, depending on the car model chosen. The watch accessories line will be featured by a precious ladies watch in glossy white ceramic set with extra clear diamonds.
