Its not like everyone has a Murcielago that would make people feel the need to be 'exclusive' and get the 20 hp increased double priced Murcielago.
Well, the right philosophy would be to reduce the weight, not increase the power. Then you could have a Enzo beater. A Murci with some extra hp cannot compete with the lightweight Ferrari... unless it weights some good 400kg less :bah:
Now that Lamob is Audi owned, I doubt they will release a Lambo w/o Nav and all the things the Enzo lacks.

If they wanted, Im 100% sure that Lambo could beat the Enzo but it just wont happen.

Such a high performance car would take this new Lamborghini right into to MC12 Corsa and FXX territory, putting this Raging Bull at the top of the market, quotes of engine displacement up to 7-Liters and power over 700 Bhph ave been heard, which would mean this Super Bull could set new records to acceleration and top speed.
So speculations now saying it will be more powerful. Man for over 1million dollars and a good time apart from Enzo it has to beat it or, to me, it is a disappointment.

If, as stated, this is a lightweight version of the Murcielago and HP wont go past 800, then yes it cant beat Veyron in top speed and the likes. It should, however, beat the Enzo and Veyron on the track. Anything less than this, IMO, is a poser car. Not to mention, for it to be a collectible and be remembered far in the future, it has to accomplish something more than fooling the customers to spend ridiculous money for an F22 Raptor on 4 wheels.

While speaking to Philipp Encz and Chad Thomas from Bloomberg News and other members of the Euro auto press today about the 25% uptick in sales at VW's Lamborghini brand for the first eight months of the year, Lambo president Stephan Winkelmann confirmed that yes, the rumors we've been hearing about are in fact true. There will be a limited-edition sports car unveiling from the bull-brand at the Frankfurt Auto Show in two weeks. The rumored price of $1 million? That hasn't yet been confirmed -- but it also wasn't denied. Our sources tell us his response to the question was:
"I can confirm those rumors, but at this stage I will have to make you wait until the Franfurt Auto Show, where we will release more details...I can't confirm the price at this stage, but it will be very expensive indeed."
We're still going to be operating under the assumption it'll follow our initial tip that the car's going to cost upwards of $1.5 million and be like some kind of love child between a LP640 and a jet fighter. We've also learned that In addition to the news about the super-rare Lambo unveiling, we're also told Winkelmann told the press folks enthusiasts shouldn't expect an LM002 follow-up or four-door anytime soon. We guess we'll be showing you some hot and expensive Lambo action for you in Frankfurt in a mere two weeks time.

I second that. The LM002 was a monster and a true Lambo. for me because it was very unsual then, but in these times it would be another big SUV ...
A 4 door Lambo. why not but an Espada would be even better IMO
