The company recommends its use only at speeds below 100 km / h for fear that it could fly away from the car (much like a stray toupee ) At faster speeds.
Go topless will cost you an extra $ 33,000, which probably will not faze buyers much, given that the base coupe starts north of $ 300k.

Of course, cost center is not an object for those considering this Lambo. For some it is a da Vinci painting, for others, a Stradivarius violin. Those who like their Italian art to "relocate" them even more should be Murciélago LP640 just "fantastico."
