How the rating works
The rating uses five fixed production bands. Smaller production runs receive higher ratings. Exact totals and responsibly sourced estimates for this precise version can be rated. Plans, regional totals, lower bounds, disputed figures and broader-family totals remain visible but unclassified. The evidence description is kept separate from the rating so a source limitation cannot change how scarcity is measured.
Murciélago LP 670-4 SV (LP 670-4 SV) records one precise Lamborghini performance-car configuration from 2009–2010. The LP 670-4 SV was the lightest and most powerful series Murciélago and the closing development of its V12 platform.
At its centre is a 6,496 cc naturally aspirated v12 identified as Lamborghini 6.5 L V12. The manufacturer publishes 493 kW (670 PS) for this scope. Output rose to 670 CV while a 100 kg mass reduction, revised aerodynamics and chassis tuning created the Murciélago SuperVeloce.
The engine is installed in a longitudinal rear-mid engine, all-wheel drive layout and works through a 6-speed e-gear automated manual. Those facts matter acoustically as well as technically: engine position, firing order, induction, gear selection and cabin structure all affect what reaches a listener.
Engineering and character
Within Lamborghini's history, this is a precisely defined model. Related badges, body styles and competition derivatives may share a visual or mechanical vocabulary without sharing exact specifications. The family tree provides context, not permission to transfer a recording or fact from a neighbouring model.
The listening cues 6.5-litre V12, e-gear shift, lightweight cabin, all-wheel drive are orientation rather than proof. A cold start can expose idle control and mechanical texture; acceleration can document induction, combustion and shift behaviour; a fly-by can place exhaust and tyre sound in an exterior context.
The focus here is the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce coupé. It excludes the LP 640, Roadster, track-only derivatives and modified cars. Many surviving performance cars have replacement exhausts or other changes.
Legacy and identity
It invites cold start, acceleration and fly-by recordings, plus photographs, documents and corrections.
Contributors are therefore asked for capture date, general environment, microphone and recorder details, engine temperature, operating load and any known deviation from factory specification. Private location and ownership details stay out of the public record. This practical metadata lets later researchers distinguish mechanical character from recording technique while leaving room for a corrected identity or a better documented replacement.
Preservation means keeping each claim inspectable and correctable.
