The Murciélago Roadster becomes a movie star

After the worldwide on-screen debut in Batman Begins, the Murciélago Roadster will also appear in another 2005 summer blockbuster: The Transporter 2, directed by Louis Leterrier, written by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen and produced by EuropaCorp & Fox.

The hero in this film is Frank Martin (Jason Statham), a private chaffeur with a Special Forces background and incredible driving skills who lives his life by a strict set of rules. He drives the family members of a US Senator who has recently been appointed as the President’s new Drug Czar. When the opportunity arises and Frank needs something fast and aerodynamic, he picks a Lamborghini Murciélago Roadster to save the day in the final climatic car chase of the film.

The car has speed to give you wings. Which might make you wonder which is faster: the Lamborghini Murciélago Roadster or a Gulfstream G3? - Go and see The Transporter 2 to find out!

The film will be on release from August 3rd. For a preview visit http://www.transporter2movie.com/.
