LAMBORGHINI MAKES ANOTHER ICONIC APPEARANCE IN LATEST BATMAN MOVIE THE DARK KNIGHT

By: Robinson/Beintema Autofiles July 23, 2008 11:29 AM - When he isn’t protecting Gotham City from various villains, as his alter ego Batman in his Batmobile, billionaire Bruce Wayne’s vehicle of choice is one of Lamborghini’s most extreme super sports car ever built, the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640.
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Coupe is not Bruce Wayne’s first Lamborghini.
The association with the marque began in 2005 when Propaganda Global Entertainment Marketing, Lamborghini’s worldwide entertainment marketing firm, brokered the deal for the Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster to make its on screen debut in "Batman Begins."
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Coupe appearing in The Dark Knight is powered by a 640 hp 12-cylinder engine and is capable of more than 211 mph.
“The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 is the natural choice for Bruce Wayne’s other car,” stated Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. “Lamborghini is proud to be associated with one of the greatest movie franchises in history, especially co-starring with the Batmobile.
