Lamborghini Murciélago, press release for the 2006 Model Year - the STORY
There are new features on the Lamborghini flagship, the 12-cylinder Murciélago Model Year 2006 (Coupé and Roadster).
The most important of these is without doubt the possibility to equip the car with carbon-ceramic brakes.
Carbon-ceramic discs offer clear benefits:
- braking efficiency remains constant at both low and high temperature, with no fading, even after hard use
- improved handling, agility and efficiency
- shorter braking distances with reduced pedal effort
These advantages are complemented by:
- longer lifetime
- lighter than steel
- 'state of the art' system
The Murciélago MY 06 also complies with EU4 standards (ECE)
The Murciélago MY 06 has a new standard equipment package, which includes a Becker navigation system (not for the USA) and a range of new options.
Optional equipment includes the 'Interior Carbon Package', where a number of the interior components are made from carbon fibre:
- cover for the driver side display
- dashboard cover (right and left sides)
- handbrake lever
- cover for the air conditioning and radio
- handles on the sides of the centre tunnel
- gearlever cover
- frame around the armrest
- ashtray
A further optional extra is the 'Branding Package', which comprises the Lamborghini logo in relief on the headrests and the coloured Lamborghini logo on the wheels.
The Murciélago MY 06 Coupé is now also available in the exclusive new colour Oro Adonis (gold), already available for the Roadster version.
The 'Privilege Programme' car customisation option is also available for the Murciélago MY 06.
Sant'Agata Bolognese, September 2005.
