He is the nicest guy, been a good friend for years. Not many people at that level are as grounded as he is. Without or without the cars, grateful to know him 🤙
The Murcielago was THE Lambo for me growing up. The sound, the looks, the pedigree is all as raw as it will ever get from Lambo. No other car will ever look as cool, sinister, and iconic than the Murcielago. My #1 dream car is the Murcielago SV in orange. Thank you for uploading this video. I get goosebumps every time I see a Murcielago, let alone hear it.
Thanks for watching mate! Not sure if you ever watched Top Gear, but Richard Hammond reviewed the Murci SV when it was first released in Dubai, and it was orange!
i once heard this car in los angeles coming up behind me. when i say i heard it i mean... i HEARD it predicted the spec and everything. It was at that point i realized i'd been obsessed with this machine.
My dream car which never ceases to amaze me! Every time I hear that V12 I get goosebumps🥶 Great video! I couldn't make out some parts of the conversation but that's the Murcielago SV for you, still it would be nice If you could improve the audio mixing. Subscribed!
Thank you! I consume everythign I can find about this car including any review I can find. If all you did was made videos about this car I would watch them all hahaha.
@@carcaveofficial Yesss haha the reason being, it is my dream car. I would love to see a video on the development of the bizzarini V12 or really anything that else that has high attention to detail...
When TH-cam recommendation works, IT REALLY WORKS. My all time favorite Lamborghini, an absolute timeless classic, The sound of it is so unique that you can distinguish it from a haystack of super/hyper cars indeed. In my area all forms of a Murcielago no longer exists. I always day dream of how would it be like if I'm the one and only man on the road driving her. It would be and ABSOLUTE looker! Thank you for this video, CarCave and also... Thank you for reminding me I'm Old, your childhood dream was my Early adult 1st year of college dream LOL
Hands down, the best Lamborghini ever made. This one has the best look and sound. I'm not a huge fan of how the original Murcielago looks, but the SV is just gorgeous. The very few manual ones should probably be some of the most fun cars to drive ever made.
What a video well put together. It's insane how LOUD it is when you were already in the drive! I could barely hear you both talking! imagine what would it be in person! Thanks for sharing this!
Besides everything else that make it one of the all time great cars, to me, it’s the best sounding car of all time. Most people would say it’s the LFA or CGT, but I don’t think those two have the same soul, emotion or bass. You have to hear it howling through the gears, the upshifts alone could make you cry. The Aventador’s new V12 didn’t even come close to this.
I remember having a full scale toy model of this car but in the launch spec orange as a kid. Plus this is my dream car when it's comes to Lamborghini: always have been, always will be, i remember watching a bunch of videos on this rare supercar beauty, the way how that old school V12 makes a loud powerful howling roar almost like a lion roar/blue whale call. I wished Lamborghini would have countined making these back then, these cars are like a rare work of art that's never been seen before. The Lamborghini Aventador SV is a beast of a car, but the Murcielago SV is like a whole different story, two completely different characteristic supercars from two different eras.
@@carcaveofficial Yeah I did the review was fantastic, I was left in awe as well as amazement of how good this car was, especially when it almost caught up to the slr 722 in the drag race, the way how richard hammond was laughing as well as enjoying himself in the Murcielago SV especially when it beat the Ferrari Enzo in a lap time of 1:19:0 at the top gear test track when it was driven by the stig.
I constantly think about that drag race with the SLR 722. Such a legendary moment, not only are there no car reviewers like that anymore, but there are no cars like that anymore either.
@@carcaveofficial It's like the end of era that kind of old school style type of thing, I also remember having another old school dream car on my list as a kid: The 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 which was also reviewed on top gear as well, I remember having a bedroom poster of this car in white with black stripes, this mustang was considered the last live rear axle mustang as well as the proper mustang of the s197 platform. It's a shame the next generation will miss out on all of these old school cars, they are used to seeing these modern day supercars/sports cars but the pure old school ones were out of this world for old generations like you & I.
It is very true. When I think of the coming generation of car enthusiasts, and how many of them may grow up looking forward to owning electric cars that drive for them, I get nauseous
This is my dream car... For the first time I saw it when I was in high school. No other car has ever made me feel like this I work very hard to be able to afford such a car
My all time favorite Lambo🤌🏼 I think the Murcielago along with the Gallardo, Ferrari 430/599, Mercedes SLR McLaren, Porsche Carrera GT, and Ford GT was the last of the retro supercars before their descendants like the Aventador, Huracan, McLaren MP412C/570S, Mercedes SLS AMG, Ferrari 488/F12, and so on took over. I find myself admiring the retro supercars more than the modern supercars when I’m at a big car event.
I agree. The era of the murcielago has the old school appeal, but I cannot help but adore the 458 italia, and that era for Ferrari. I think the Murcielago was the golden era for Lamborghini, and the 458/F12/La Ferrari was the golden era for Ferrari.
I used to have a telesto LP640 in my late 20's (now 43) had many cars since then.. it's still the best car I've ever had, in terms of sound and presence. Sold it for 295 back in the day, there are 5 examples & now it costs nearly 1M usd where I live 😂 (istanbul) 670SV is the most what Lamborghini brand presents imo, hoping to get an SV in Europe someday, (preferably arangio atlas) and hold on to it forever ❤ shoutout to the owner, enjoy yours in good health
That is high praise to the SV, and I think it is deserved. Despite pricing for the SV going through the roof, I still do not think it is appreciated as much as it should be. It is the last of an era of, in my opinion, proper supercars and hypercars.
It is a monster. Driving it was unlike anything I could really describe, and when you jump into a modern Lamborghini from an SV, it feels very docile and tame.
@@carcaveofficial this is the very reason I love Vipers. I’ve got a lot of experience in them and they feel that way too. Very angry and raw. But the Murcie is on another level. In every way.
Very nice of you to say mate, hopefully not Doug out, he does great videos and is a genuinely nice person, but if I can make content people enjoy, that would be amazing!
My friend bought a lotus from lamborghini st louis and they had an sv in the showroom, small wing pack. I believe it was an e-gear, and the car does look better with the big wing, but the small wing ones are much rarer.
im not a guy who likes lamborgini but i have to say, thats the only lambo that i would buy only because you can get it in manual and it looks WAY better than a huracan.
Someone in my state does have the 6spd version of the SV. Nowadays, they’re essentially priceless (especially since one of them was totaled). A 6spd Murcie SV with a RWD conversion + full titanium straight piped exhaust + better wheels/suspension is my all time dream car.
I've seen a manual 640 - there is actually one for sale by me in South Florida in green. I believe starting price is $800k'ish, willing to trade for an Aventador + Cash. Apparently there are 4 manual 670s in the US - the chassis number and owners of 3 of them are all verified, a white one (Chassis 3957) was crashed and rebuilt. There is a missing one (Vin ZHWBU8AM2ALA03490) - I believe there is a 100k reward out for it to simply find it, lol. Apparently Orange, went to Singapore, and then got to China recently. Then there are 3 manual 670s in Europe - 2 verified, 1 mystery vehicle, believed to be green or blue. Finally, there is a super legit conversion in Asia (Number 30/350) - Someone converted an auto 670 into a manual using all original parts and diagrams. It's wingless though. There are also a few manual 640's out there with original 670 SV bodykits, I personally have no idea how they would get ahold of that, but apparently that's the case.
@@carcaveofficial I would love to have a 640, I have a Huracan now, I’m just hopping they stick around for a while and don’t get “too crazy” in price. It’s sad to see everything going EV, I fear Lamborghinis release in 3 days will be a complete departure from their lineage and what makes them special. I just wish all the kids like me who grew up wanting a V10 or V12 could work reasonably hard and afford one, but it’s seeming like that will just become harder and harder. We will see though. Great video btw! I enjoyed it :)
@@coryestewart I know what you mean, it is how I feel about the 640 & the 458 italia. It already happened to the Speciale, it is simply unattainable now, and as we move further and further away from the cars of out youth...it just seems to get harder and harder to reach them.
I think you are right, they did. They also built a few without the rear wing, with a lip spoiler instead. But those are unicorns only for the eyes of better men than me
massive respect to the owner for letting you enjoy it like that. you could tell he was having a laugh
He is the nicest guy, been a good friend for years. Not many people at that level are as grounded as he is. Without or without the cars, grateful to know him 🤙

@@Alex-ss9ou Really appreciate that man!
the lp640 is almost identical. Those huge front vents and new rear light compared to the original iteration make all the difference imho.
Put the camera forward, it's better to see it as if we were driving.
Possibly something for the future!
What a video well put together. It's insane how LOUD it is when you were already in the drive! I could barely hear you both talking! imagine what would it be in person! Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks much mate, glad you enjoyed it! We have another video coming out this Saturday with another car from his collection....you should check it out!
this was by far one of the best reviews i've watched.
Thank you so much mate! Means more than you know!
Congratulations for the video and for the 2 protagonists of the video, WHAT A BEAST, WHAT A BULL!
Besides everything else that make it one of the all time great cars, to me, it’s the best sounding car of all time.

A thing of pure beauty
Agreed!
I will own an SV. Gotta keep digging. My favorite car, a very close 2nd to the F1.

Very nice of you to say mate, hopefully not Doug out, he does great videos and is a genuinely nice person, but if I can make content people enjoy, that would be amazing!
Oh man. This is my childhood dream too
Mine as well!
stunning car, the sounds are pure madness 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Madness is the perfect word
My most favourite Murcielago. Was kinda unfortunate when they nerfed it in NFSW.
They did nerf it. And they nerfed it in Need For Speed Carbon too. Somehow the developers thought the Audi R8 was faster -_-
I fell in love with this car when I seen it in the Dark Knight… Perfect car for Bruce Wayne
Same! To have one to match the Batman spec would be a dream come true
I was looking to buy a Murci back in 2009 which was next to impossible so I waited for the Aventador.
Aventador is a car I’m working on trying to find for a future video!
This car is actually a bargain being 1/186. Many others are worth more with more way production numbers (cgt 599gto etc)
A bargain might be a strong word at over $1,000,000.00…
My friend bought a lotus from lamborghini st louis and they had an sv in the showroom, small wing pack. I believe it was an e-gear, and the car does look better with the big wing, but the small wing ones are much rarer.
Much more rare, but I agree, with this car the big wing finishes the look!
My all time favorite dream car🤩🤩🤩🤩 , nothing can replace it
It’s a good choice! Beautiful car🤙
I love this car ❤
As do I!
im not a guy who likes lamborgini but i have to say, thats the only lambo that i would buy only because you can get it in manual and it looks WAY better than a huracan.
It’s from a different generation where Supercars were exclusively for the insane, the best era of performance cars in my opinion!
Someone in my state does have the 6spd version of the SV. Nowadays, they’re essentially priceless (especially since one of them was totaled).
A 6spd Murcie SV with a RWD conversion + full titanium straight piped exhaust + better wheels/suspension is my all time dream car.
Crazy to think that is a multi-million dollar car now!

What’s the official curb weight for these cars? Do you know? I’ve heard some say around 3900 lbs & some say around 3500 lbs
I believe it is 3450 lbs, but not sure if that is for the manual or the E-gear
what a car, what a spec!
Indeed!
@supercarron just bought one of the only manual gated SV’s
That is insane...if you ever have a lapse of good judgement, we should do a video on it lol
It is the greatest lamborghini. I agree
I concur!
That's it. I'm going out and driving my SV when the rain stops.
You should!
@@carcaveofficial It's been raining in San Diego lately. I can't wait to get the SV out.
Rain is over! Time to go for a drive lol

"Murchilago" hurts my brain^^
Technically, that is the correct pronunciation though...

It's "mur-SEE-eh-lah-go"
"mur-chee-eh-lah-go" I was corrected by Lamborghini people several times lol

That would be a unicorn!
You are not alone in sayjing the Murcielago is the best Lamborghini!
It just is!
I’ll take this guy over Doug demuro any day. Subbing.
I appreciate it mate! Mr. Demuro does some great content as well, but I am glad you enjoy my reviews!
Murcielago - Nooo
Murchelago - Yess
I will work on it! I try to be as accurate and correct as possible in my pronunciations
Audio quality leaves a lot to be desired.
I know….improvements have been made since this video, all we can do is continue to learn and provide better quality content in each video
Do you have an email ? Or website ?
I do! Email is thecarcave95@gmail.com
The murcielago had a 6.0 leter v12
The SV has a 6.5L V12 mate
What the hell is brake horsepower
661 hp
The proper pronunciation is closer to "Murthielago", not -Murtchielago-
manual version is the greatest
Yea but IMPOSSIBLE to find
@@carcaveofficial i find it online and drive it in Assetto Corsa. What a car! 💯🔥😬👌
Murcielago means the Bat bro not a bull
It was named after a Bull
I have interesting information for you.
Meh, Diablo 6.0 or GT is better
Those are great…but I don’t think as great as the Murci SV..
@@carcaveofficial But the Murci is an Audi. The Diablo is really the last hand-built analog Lambo... 😁
Murchilago ;/ Murcielago ;)
only if there was a manual option.
I thought they actually build a few of them??
I think you are right, they did. They also built a few without the rear wing, with a lip spoiler instead. But those are unicorns only for the eyes of better men than me
Merchialago😂
The greatest Lambo of all time is a tie between the downdraft Countach and the Miura SV. Everything else is a derivative.
Miura SV is brilliant, by the Murcielago SV is not derivative ...it's absolutely amazing
@@carcaveofficial they are all amazing, no question, diablo, murci, aventador
Murci engine revs slow due to the long stroked engine. Diablo revs faster. I have both 🎉
The end of your comment is quite a flex lol! If you are ever open to it, I'd love to do a video of your Diablo!

No no no.
This is not the beat the best is
The diablo gtr.
Idk man....I think this SV is. The Diablo GTR is amazing, but I think the Murci SV is more iconic.
The greatest is the Countach
The owner is a rapper wannabe? 😅
Not at all, really nice guy.
