A standard Murcielago isn't that heavy, at 3,600lbs, and the LP640 is supposed to be lighter than that, more than likely putting it in the high 3,500lb region, which isn't that heavy at all for a car the size of the Murcielago with AWD and a 6.5L V12.

Quick google search came up with 3671 lb for the LP640's curb weight..

Now, the regular Murci is just as heavy, but not as powerful.. more Power, same heavy body (yes 3,600lbs is FUCKING HEAVY when you're talking about a sports car).

The only reason the Bugatti isn't so deadly is because of the constant electronic aids.. (putting on the breaks, cutting throttle, shifting the suspension, etc)
