Lamborghini's Final Manual V12 Up for Auction—Only 5 Ever Made

RM Sotheby's listed a 2010 Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV for auction on August 29, 2023. The car, with chassis number ZHWBE81G0ALA04015, has covered 7,906 kilometers. As the high-performance final iteration of the Murciélago lineup, it is powered by a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine producing 661 horsepower and paired with a six-speed "open-gate" manual transmission. Records indicate Lamborghini originally planned to build 350 units of the LP 670-4 SV but completed only 186, of which just five were equipped with a manual gearbox. According to the auction house, this example is the very last manually shifted LP 670-4 SV ever produced—and also the final manual-transmission V12 model ever built by Lamborghini. Finished in Ad Personam Marrone Eklipsis brown paint, the interior features a two-tone combination of Marrone Janus and Avorio Lilium, complemented by LP640-spec comfort seats and a low-drag rear spoiler. Official figures state a 0–60 mph acceleration time of 3.2 seconds, with the car approximately 100 kg lighter than its predecessor and achieving a power-to-weight ratio of 422 hp per metric ton.
