Update: Mystery Lambo due at Paris Motor Show could should be Murcielago Superveloce

With the puzzles slowly arrange themselves forming a clearer picture, its now suggested that the mystery Lamborghini we reported earlier could be the 'extreme' version of the Lamborghini LP640, dubbed Superveloce, (meaning Super Fast) which should be the elder brother of the Gallardo Superleggara. Using the same 6 ltr V12, the Superveloce should produce 680hp, and shading off 100kg form the initial weight. And with all 680 horses through the rear wheels only! However traction to the rear wheels could get some much needed help from the giant GT-Wing, giving huge down force pushing the rear wheels onto the tarmac for added traction. It's said that this increase in down force reduces the top speed to just nudge 200mph. From the released pictures, it's almost conceivable that Lamborghini might give an entirely new body for this exclusive bull, giving the much needed and expected selling price a good push northwards.
