The Murciélago is the first supercar I remember seeing in public. I didn’t even know what it was at the time since it was 2002 and I was about 4, but it still struck me how insane it looked on the road. It was bright orange and the owner had that look of a person that knows EXACTLY how cool their car was. Cars like these are core memories for kids.

[@joaopedrocosta4420]

I still remember unlocking this car on Midnight club 3, That lime green Murciélago. Being, I believe, one of the hardest vehicles to unlock made me feel so proud of it, not to mention its astonishing looks. In my opinion, this era is the definition of Lamborghini; it is all about style, luxury, outright straight line speed and knowing you own a Lamborghini. I do like that Lamborghini is getting out some very sporty and quick cars today, but for me, the beginning of the 21st century is what made the company's name (being very respectful to their beginnings and conscious about VW's acquisition)

[@stroock6394]

well....... you think you somebody don't you.....

[@StevesWorkshop]

I 100% agree with you about the timelessness of the design of the Murcielago. I still think this is one of the most beautiful cars ever made, so proportionate, still to this day if someone says Lamborghini, this is the car that I picture in mind, and this naturally aspirated v12 sound amazing too. Oh and I also was one of those kids that liked to sit in the right back seat, I liked it beacuse from that seat I could see my dad and maybe learn how to drive...😀😀

[@XAMPOL]

Same... and even the iconic Gallardo looks good to this day

[@confusedredditor1660]

Yess, this and the first gen avendator... but mostly this

[@rolux4853]

I grew up on the last years of the Countach and when the Diablo came out. I absolutely love those cars, but the Murcielago is something else to me, the first true modern supercar. I was lucky that I went to the Autostadt in Wofsburg Germany to the premiere of this car and it was amazing! You where in a completely dark cubicle and they bolted a Murcielago to the wall and reved it. It was a whole body experience, the noises from the car vibrated deeply in my chest! I was there with my father who also is into cars his whole live (and still is!) and it was amazing! We also saw the Bugatti Veyron being presented there, but the Murcielago left a much better impression on us. Also the design of the Veyron ist not as amazing as the Lambos!

[@StevesWorkshop]

@@rolux4853 Dude, that sounds so awesome! I can only imagine how that felt! Funny that you mentioned the Veyron, we just had a discussion with MY car enthusiast dad about it, and we came to the conclusion that the Veyron too is one of those timeless designs, at least it doesn't feel 17 years old.

[@Skumtomten1]

Yea, the modern lambos are not in my taste at all, they are almost to the point of being vulgar, just too much design. This one is just clean, classic and beautiful in it's design, I love it.

[@CARBONHAWK1]

Best sounding V12, just so visceral compared to the Aventador I can’t put my finger on it..

[@jv6miata]

Sounds more mechanical, meanwhile the Aventador sounds a bit artificial

[@MiniOne82]

They sound fantastic but think there are better sound V12's out there, 250 GTO being one.

[@jcrbama]

The Murcielago V12 is the last time the Bizzarrini engine was used which dates back to the 60's. It was used on the 350GT, Miura, Countach, Diablo etc. Lamborghini engineered a new engine for the Aventador. Personally, I think you're right the old Bizzarinni engine has a lot more character and a different firing order than the new engine. Giotto Bizzarinni came over from Ferrari to design this engine, it's funny that someone mentioned the Ferrari 250 GTO, the last engine that Bizzarinni designed for Ferrari before he left was the v12 for the 250 GTO.

[@jcrbama]

@@MiniOne82 Both this engine and the v12 for the 250 GTO were designed by Giotto Bizzarinni. That guy could engineer some great sounding engines.
