- This Lamborghini Murcielago features a bizarre aftermarket exhaust
- Powering the supercar is the brand’s 6.2-liter naturally-aspirated V12.
- A 6-speed gated manual is bound to make it a very attractive proposition.
Roughly 15 years ago, a blacked-out Ferrari 575 cruised past me on the streets of Melbourne with six tailpipes. Up until now, it’s remained one of the strangest exhaust setups I’ve ever seen. However, this 2004 Lamborghini Murcielago for sale in the US has an even weirder exhaust and looks exactly like a strange frog. It’s at such odds with the rest of the supercar’s design that I just can’t stop looking at it.

Old Murcielago models are having a bit of a renaissance at the moment. This was the final V12-powered car that the Italian brand offered with a six-speed manual transmission, as both the Aventador and Revuelto ditched the third pedal.
At the time of the Murcielago’s launch, it was the e-gear automated single-clutch manual that had enthusiastic excited, but as time has gone on, it’s now the real manual models that are the most desirable.
around This particular car is for sale in California and is a pre-facelift model with ~35,000 miles (~56,000 km) on the odometer. According to the listing on Bring a Trailer, the seller purchased it in 2020 and has driven it just about 2,000 miles (~3,200 km) since. With the exception of the odd aftermarket exhaust, it looks absolutely incredible.

Adorning the exterior is a stunning shade of dark green known as Verde Hydra. This is one of the rarer shades of green Lamborghini offers, and is also one of the classiest. The car continues to sit on the original 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero Rosso tires.
Obviously, the gorgeous gated shifter is the highlight of the cabin. But there’s plenty more to like about the interior, including the cream-colored leather on the seats, transmission tunnel, door panels, and the lower half of the dashboard. While the car has been fitted with an aftermarket Pioneer headunit, there’s no music that can rival the sound of the 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V12 behind the passenger cell.
