TheStradman's GATED MANUAL Murcielago 40th! The Greatest Lamborghini EVER!?

Let's found out what makes a gated manual Murci quite so special!? I couldn't leave Utah without joining ‪@TheStradman‬ for a drive in his Lamborghini Murcielago 40th Anniversary to find out for myself what the hype is about, and taking these cars quickly to $1m plus!
After James has been kindly looking after my AMG GT Black Series for the last month, we're ready to be heading onwards to our next stop, but before doing so there's room for one last drive together! The Murcielago 40th Anniversary was a very special car for him to add to his Lamborghini collection but having never experienced a manual Murci, I need to find out what all the hype is about.
Prices for Murcielagos have been rising incredibly, as all rare Lamborghini models, but in particular either SVs or cars with gated manual gearboxes. While at the time, it was more popular for customers to order cars with the E-gear automoted box, there was of course a 6 speed available and it turns out to be an absolute delighted!
The 40th Murci was limited to 50 cars, and all exclusively in Verde Artemis paint with carbon fibre details, specific wheels, and of course all with a manual gearbox. James' particular car was originally collected for him by ‪@Drivewithroy‬ and Zach Brehl in Canada, before eventually importing it to the US and now having it at his Dream House, which is undergoing the next stage of its transformation.
A huge thanks to James for his hospitality over the last month.

[@fshizl2918]

I enjoy watching James so much in this environment. He’s so relaxed and the camera is much more stable. I know he’s got his character in his channel but seeing him relaxed outside of his channel is so refreshing.

So true. Nice to see him actually calm for once

[@ryanarmstrong7989]

Seeing how strad is when he isn’t behind the camera it’s crazy how he is a little bit more relaxed. Very cool to see y’all two on the same video.

[@fieldie]

I just love the respect Tim and James have for each other on their channels, what I mean is James is normally very loud and talkative, but on Tim's channel he is quite and keeps the focus on Tim talking and being the presenter on his channel, and Tim does the same for James, love that respect!

[@TheDuey92]

The familiarity I have with Shmee at Strads is so welcoming and wholesome

[@stivesyy]

Could never get enough Shmee & Strad content! Keep up the good work!

[@krissolson7043]

I love the collaborations with James! Two of my favorites! I only live about 330 miles from Stradman and hope one day to meet him. I love that Murci but the Diablo 6.0 is my love car.

[@ethannicosia979]

This just reminds be how badly I want an R8 V10 manual, drove a few when I worked at an Audi dealer and the click clack between gears and how mint the clutch feel was gave me a love for them

i'm gonna own one of those one day too, gl sir

[@hyogomarume8345]

The difference between James and “Stradman” is so interesting. Shows how much energy and dedication he puts into his videos. There’s a reason why he’s so successful

[@markpass4215]

Stradman out of Stradman character is such a warm, genuine polite guy ..great to see both

[@a-teamryo1213]

Murcielago is really too cool!

[@jamesfoster9966]

I love seeing the big smile and joy you get out of the Murci Tim. How genuine you are is a breath of fresh air. Too many youtubers put on an obnoxious facade.

Now this is what life is all about. Two gorgeous Lamborghinis, and good company out on a leisurely cruise with a breathtaking mountainous view. Priceless 😌.

Shmee is protecting Stradman from the keyboard mechanics by saying car is warm 😂

[@tonymoreton7166]

Fantastic to see these guys who've made it good, drive cars like this & say, 'I'm not selling'. Manual supercars & top end sports cars from this era are 'the peak'.

[@jrf607]

A gated manual Murcielago is my all time dream car. Thank you for showing this off to us.

[@Crypto2638]

The Murci still looks insane. I think it is one of the best looking Lamborghini. The color of this one in seriously wonderful

[@billyhess5263]

I was 22 back in 2001 when the Murciélago came out, what a car! I remember watching a review (Top Gear, of course), and I was enamored with the way those shoulder intakes move out as you go faster, still one of my favorite things to watch! I may be hinting at something here, something like maybe video from a 360 camera of those intakes moving out 🤔...

[@Hudsoncal5]

All the collaborations lately feels like Christmas! Love when you guys film together!!!!

[@iceslayer777]

This trio collaboration was epic and that Murcielago 40th anniversary edition is just quite something. Even Tommy from The Hamilton Collection said this car was incredible to drive. I really hope Shmee does a review on some of these cars that Stradman has like in-depth. There's so much more love inside of these cars compared to their value or how much they're appreciated by others. I wonder if Stradman would take $1.5m on that Murcielago!?

[@cosmicninjaSN8]

I like how there are no extras on the car like a wing. It's a clean pure example of a Murci!

[@ronsenzel9056]

I really like the vids you post when you collaborate with James. Very enjoyable.

[@mclarenjohnf1]

Tim, Alex and James in one video is just a top collaboration who could wish to see a better group and beautiful Lamborghinis.

[@MrNineties]

The Arancio Atlas Murci in NFS Hot Pursuit 2 was always my favorite, since I couldn't dream of affording one. The sound cannot be beaten. Just an absolute symphony.

[@prstechnic1774]

Stradman sounds like such a chill and easygoing person. Great video

[@rafacamarols1]

You guys made my day , thank you very much

[@thomasd5285]

2 years ago it was just a 150K used Lambo here in Europe... Again, thank you for creating the hype around these cars ( yesterday it was the R34 GTR now the Murcielago, great ! ) That's why we can't buy our dream cars as normal car enthusiasts without deep pockets. I'm so tired to push my budget, working hard every day, to see these cars bought by speculators and so-called "expert" collectors like Ed Bolian.

[@hollywoodcheremonkey]

The UK vs the US… You guys pull it off. Driving down a country lane vs Open desert freeway. Narrow vs wide roads. Long history vs short history. There is a difference in world view for sure. You can tell when you guys are going back and forth in the car. It’s cool and different from the usual review vlog. I love these collaborations!

[@tyh1483]

[@kenichitamagusuku3194]

I love Shmee150’s channel when Mr. The Stradman is in to video. Shmee150 is knowledgeable of the cars but James is just enjoyable watching his video

[@bigdaddy1001rules]

I think I’m in love with the orange Diablo those rims make that thing look wicked

[@DJJOOLZDE]

That Diablo VT is as cool as a car can get imho. Was blown away by them back in the 90's, and still am to this day.

[@htahana3461]

One word,EPIC.

[@RustyBonnet]

When you go through the intersection, or Juntion as well call them ;) and the Diablo goes past that 55mph sign, i just get flashbacks to the opening scenes of the Canonball Run :) Awesome. There used to be a purple Diablo in my home town many years ago. Had a ratehr loud exhaust on it as well :)

[@slcncr]

I haven´t watched the video till the end yet, not heard everything you said about this specific car, but i guess this could potentially be an expensive experience ... Always love when you two make videos and memories together. Waiting for the time when James visits Europe.

[@Tylerm684]

This video is proof of how much more fun manual cars are. It's just them driving around but even for the viewer it is just an amazing experience. You just want to drive and drive. Modern automatics and especially electric cars just dont do that. Values will probably never stop rising

[@adamfox6927]

Shmee and Strad is great hopefully few more videos to come and Strad in the UK soon would be cool

[@aeonjaeger477]

14:13, just "he's going" to an orange blur. Awesome to see.

Nice to see James calm and not shouting chaotically into the camera like in his regular vids

[@swift4657]

I love how different people like damon and stradman are when not on their channels I like them better more down to earth

[@furgulley8077]

That 6.0 liter is the perfect spec. Even down to the sv/se30 colormatched wing. I saw an arancio atlas 6.0 at the chicago auto show in 2001 and to this day its still my favorite lamborghini color.

[@jdsk8914]

Agreed! I think Arancio looks better than Giallo on the 6.0 Diablo. With or without the wing.

[@sergiopereira9546]

This video was a vibe.

[@gbalao8885]

The original Murcielago is my dream Lamborghini and remains timeless for years to come, even more so than the LP 640 and LP 670-4 Superveloce. It’s everyone’s childhood supercar, and what a beauty it really is. To my mind, this beats the Countach in every way.

[@innovativeguy7315]

That is a stunning colour!

[@Datpooger6]

strad's voice in shmees videos vs his own videos is day and night haha love it
