New Photos of the Imsa Lamborghini Murcielago LP640
German tuning shop imsa released a set of technological enhancements and design improvements for the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 late last year. They recently sent us a new stack of photos to pass along to our faithful readership. As if the stock version of the 640hp supercar wasn't advanced enough, Imsa has created a set of features designed to perfect engine tuning and reduce drag.
A follow-up to their GTV Supercar, the imsa LP640 uses the same central locking sports wheels, individually tuned chassis, and engine mods as the GTV. Purchasers of the freshened-up Murcielago will get an Autoklav-moulded carbon fibre design package that can keep the material's original look or be custom painted.
New exterior pieces include wider wheel arches, a new front spoiler, and imsa CFK air ducts meant to reduce drag at incredibly high speeds. Side-skirts direct underside airflow into a new diffuser, which works with a custom rear spoiler to further improve aerodynamics.
With the lowered downforce, imsa claims the driver gets better "stability, safety and enjoyment."
The tuning kit is currently available, and can also be purchased for the standard Murcielago.
easier to handle at higher speeds, handling better at higher speeds means better safety... annnnd when ur going faster around corners even safer, it tends to be more fun lol
were it correctly designed and had it undergone serious aerodynamic tests, it wouldnt need that ugly huge wing in the back.. besides, the murcielago needs a replacement, it's the transition from old times (heavy and bulky mass, average reliability) to present (high tech solid artistry provided by audi cash & engineering)
Murcielago is looking fat but this is no reason of being ugly. It's fast and beautiful...
not ugly, just... worn out, too close to the diablo
its a good looking car, especially in contrasting white and black. although painted all orange it would still be a stunner. its definitely an outdated machine that needs to be replaced or heavily updated with some audi money.
Isn't 2009 the last year of the murcielago? That's what i heard somewhere. The murcielago will go down in history, just like the countach and diablo. Absolutelly stunning car, wish i could say the same about this kit, i prefer the stock version of the car. Lamborghini has some really good engineers and designers on hand and an advanced wind tunnel i will bet the stock LP640 is more stable at high speeds than this.

lowered downforce gives better stability, safety and enjoyment? how? Also, I like the exaggerated vent look.
