Dear Wizard, you probably did already but please double check the clearance of the window when fully opened and the speaker magnet. You wouldn’t be the first to miss that sometimes manufacturer’s need to use very shallow neodymium speakers because of the little clearance in the door. I usually try to match the original depth or shallower.
I last visited your channel when you had under 50k subs, I just got this on my feed after picking Hoovie back up and wowww I'm so amazed at how far you've come on UA-cam, Wizard! :) Thanks for everything you do for the love of motoring, I wish to be like you one day.
i agree with mrs wizard, the gated shifter is a magnificent centerpiece to the center. thanks wizard for showing us all the cool little quirks that make this murcy so special! this one was a banger
I think It looks absolutely jaw dropping in silver/grey/champagne . A lot of supercars of the era do like, the SLR & Saleen S7 for example. Cool video & Cheers !
Definitely my favorite Lambo - they sounds as good as they look too - by todays standards they aren't that fast and don't handle that well (actually they never really handled that well - but that's most Lambos even today) - but when you see & hear one on the road it's a special moment.
I bought a new 2004 Gallardo. So many bull runs from Scottsdale to Prescott, Sedona, and Jerome. 24-26 Lambos and a few Ferrari’s with 9000 rpm motors singing on deserted Arizona highways with cookouts at the destination resort. Mechanics stated the V10 was bullet proof. For a high performance engine probably make it to 100,000 miles. The intake noise mixed with the Tubi exhaust was intoxicating. $3000 yearly checkup and oil change. $3000 yearly tags. $3000 yearly insurance. Repairs were rare but at least $3000 for minor stuff. Maintenance similar cost of small plane
You asked about the speakers “…what would you do…” well…. I would do exactly what I’ve done twice in my life, I would replace the foam ring. There are $20 kits out there that will give you the exact foam speaker replacement ring and with a little time and glue, speakers can be repaired. My first set has lasted 8+ years in the Florida heat, in the front doors of the vehicle.
I like a lot how the Wizard touches cars and the switches very gentle an respectfully. No banging doors or hoods. I would leave my car for repair there anytime....if i were from the region.
@10:54 I had a bluetooth modification for my 2005 Mercedes C Coupe that worked like that - I installed it myself (easy in my car) and it worked perfectly with everything stock - that is a GREAT modification.
As long as the speakers were still working you could contact Simply Speakers and buy a refoam kit for way less than you paid for those AudioBanks. Their kits include everything you need along with instructions. They have a video showing how simple the process is.
Sounds like he doesn't have enough money lol. Only brings it in for a handful of things at a time and then tries to get the cheapest way to do the job on top of that.
@@dedalliance1 Not really. Sometimes the better repair isn't always the most expensive repair. Going with aftermarket speakers is definitely the same choice. Why would anyone spend $1k on a pair of speakers that probably suck anyway? If it makes you feel better I assure he's spending a LOT of $$$ on the headlamp housings and getting the shocks rebuilt.
For almost any older car, exotic or not, the cost of purchasing it is just the price of admission. If you buy an old F150, don't be surprised if you have to spend 2-4x the purchase price making it reliable.
Anything can be expensive. I got a Jeep XJ for free. I’m 15K into it and about to take it off the road for a 100% restoration. Perfect examples go for 40-50K on BAT so I should only be a little underwater with it when I’m done 😂
Nice color and sleek design. Same with the Cadillac leveling shocks, you can't find exact OEM replacements. Replacements you have to change the pressure lines. Not quite the same. I don't know why they don't make speakers with polypropylene instead of foam. My home theater speakers have polypropylene.
I’ve been a professional upholsterer for 15 years with 21 total in the trade and after seeing the panels removed I can say without a doubt I could handle that situation easily. The funny thing is that I bet the owner will pay an outrageous price for that reupholstering.
I repair/restore vintage radios. There are companies that rebuild speakers. Such as replacing foam surrounds, readjusting the spider, new cone etc. I am glad you found an affordable replacement.
I enjoy your videos. Excellent advice and content. And I appreciate including your wife. Married 31 years myself. We wouldn't be the same without them.
The way I would have fixed the speakers was to buy a replacement foam surround and glue them back on. And it would have cost you much less and you would have been able to keep your original speakers.
@@CarWizard Those look like woven Kevlar speaker cones wizard, very thrifty choice but quite a downgrade to the cheap paper cones. If your customer would like an upgrade or something a bit more fitting of a super car have a look at the FOCAL ES 165K K2 . Very reputable Prosumer brand, they use a newer Kevlar/glass fibre composite which has replaced the old Kevlar weave style. It looks like those particular speakers have been used in multiple similar projects too.
Those OEM speakers are definitely Kevlar. The cones on the speakers Wizard bought are coated, probably pretty close in quality. I bet the OEM speakers were Yellow when they were new.
gotta admit as someone who hates the murcies as they just didnt look that good when they first came out, plus I swear to god I saw Hoovies Interior in a Volkswaggen beetle once, the orange snap edition when they were new, but in this guise with this color, it actually looks nice, like this silver with a faint Champaign tint to it really makes it pop
I remember going to the dealership with a former boss. Rich guy. He was looking to buy one, and I got to sit in it, rev it. Was amazing. I still love the way this car looks!

My dream car is a peral white LP640, but the more i look at the origial Murcielago, the more i like the simpler lines of the front bumper an the way it looks. LP640 just looks bit over done with extended hood on the fronnt bumper, this one looks so perfect. I could sit for ages annd just stare at this machine.
Superb Lamborghini and it shows very well despite the little flaws it has but it's worth every penny spent on it (even more for being a gated manual). I bet we would all like a brief update video portion on it when all the work is finished
Worth every penny 😂😂 people paying for the name because a low mileage car needing this many repairs should be considered 💩 quality. Maybe you missed how many times this junker been in the shop😂
The Luc Donckerwolke design is timeless. This was the last time the engine could trace its lineage all the way back to the Muira, and a reminder to us without the ££££ what these cost to keep in good order. Thanks for the vid

When it comes to speakers, it is not that easy to get something to sound as accurate as OEM. The original sound system has been tuned to work with the cavity design of this car. Just because you get a good brand of speakers does not mean they will sound better than OEM. Just something to keep in mind.

@@andyroid5028 Just wondering nothing more, from whom US army is defending american people? I can understand defending their interest like oil, abolishing other countries freedoms , forcing their ideologies upon others and such but...i would say "defending" is not right word for that. Your army actions are offensive not defensive in nature, thus making you aggressors.
The fact that the oem speaker was a one way with a whizzer cone (to try and pull some highs from the center cap) the owner will benefit greatly from a speaker with multiple drivers (and a crossover of some sort, even if its just a resistor) even if they are not the highest quality. money well spent here.
You can spray cheap speaker cones if colour is important...t wont make much sonic difference in a car setup especially if there are separate tweeters...but refoaming is a doddle - online refoam kits are common
Expensive cars usually are expensive to maintain. I have talked to Lamborghini owners before and they have said that both the Countach and Jalpa had very simple engines that were easy to work on and maintain. The biggest problem was getting parts but you could do a lot of repairs yourself. The Murcielago and Aventador though aren't really that way. But, I imagine that this Murcielago is more reliable and costs less to keep on the road than a late model Mercedes with over 100,000 miles.
I had a 2005 Murcielago few years ago I had the dealer removed the headlights and gave them to me then I used a razor blade from a disposable to remove the lens so I can clean them and resealed them , let me tell ya it make the car that much nicer with crystal clear headlights.
Wizard forgot to mention about the twin calipers in the rear while talking about the rear twin shocks. Ik one of the caliper is for hand brake but still cool to see it got two just like some other super cars.
Like all things Italian sportscar: If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it. But boy I wish I could! (Aventador SVJ at the top of my list. Then a VF Engineering supercharger upgrade... Then move someplace where the potholes would let it live more than 2 months)
Looks like you do some restoration work on old exotic interesting cars as you have the resources like where to go to vendors to get them done! It's good you're getting into specializing in Italian cars repair and some restoration work. If I have old Italian interesting cars I would like to live close to your shop!
That’s a very nice car. One in which sits in his shop, large garage or his house garage. People who own these cars usually have little jobs done on them each year. People who own these types of vehicles are a bit smarter than the rest of us. They don’t throw all their money at them at once. Was anyone listening in the beginning of Wizards video. He said it has doubled in value. So this guy gets to drive his savings account around and knows if he doesn’t wreck it. It’s going to be worth more money when he brings it home and puts it back into one of his garages. I’d say Wizard has a very smart client.
14:50 Nice looking job....But how about not screwing up the impedance, with removing that filtered top-end?! Also a refoam would have been even cheaper and just as hard/easy.... What a shame , getting rid of them woven Kevlar-coned OEM speakers...
Even though these are cool cars, I cannot understand the desire to own one. Too much maintenance and headaches in my opinion. I had the pleasure of driving a Lamborghini at a car meet, thanks Don! It was a gallardo with the 5.2 and an automatic, but it was pretty cool. Definitely wasn’t as “special” as anticipated, which was both a relief and disappointment. I appreciate my C6 Z06 even more now, even though his Lamborghini did beat my car in a race. It was kinda close, about a 2 car gap from a low roll to 120~ish. The interior was leaps and bounds better than mine, but it becomes an afterthought after being in it for a bit. The touch points were SO MUCH BETTER than my car though. Also, driving characteristics were a lot different too, but I kind of liked the squirrely feel of the Z06 because it was more exciting.
Lambo likes to use cheap parts from other cars. Their v12 throttle bodies are from a v70 volvo 2.5t. The lambo branded one is 1600 and the volvo one is 160. Do ya research and dont get scammed!
Never trust a grab-bar (Oh 💩 handle). I dumped it into second from highway speeds when my brother was looking out the side window and he just tore it off.
Wizard thought the murci was assembled with front hood misaligned from factory. Just cant be, its a Lamborghini. There is a serious quality control and it was their halo car of the early 2000s. So yeah it got misaligned probably by some minor accident or rubber seals disintegrating or leaving track on one side orrr the metal bars holding the hood were loose on one side and moved a bit as mentioned.
Here I am trying to justify buying a 6spd pre-LP Gallardo,, but a 6spd Murcielago is the dream. They pretty much cost as much as a used Aventador these days. Only thing I don't like about it is the interior, but must be a blast to drive.
I would've replaced the speakers with a high-quality component set for not much more.... speakers are supposed to SOUND good.... looks comes with a quality component
Imagine every time the car breaks, it costs $$$ thousands. No thanks. My 1983 911SC is very fun and bullet proof, 76K miles, starts, runs and drives like new. Yearly maintenance cost- $150 in oil changes thru the past 5 years. It was major tuned in 2017 ( valve adjust, gaskets, plugs, filters, etc.- only $1700.) Have not replaced anything in almost 6 years, only oil and filter changes.
This is the second time I've seen the Wizard say you can't rotate tires on a car that has different sizes in the front and rear. Unless they are directional, yes you can....
@@jasongrisdale3084 what smaller rim? The back rims are the same and the front rims are the same. You move the driver side to the passenger side and passenger to the driver. You obviously can't put the backs in the front...
Hi Wizard, well with speakers it is usually sound that people go for. However in a Lamborghini you can never hear the sound system because of the engine noise. So in this case looks are more important. 😂😂😂😂
Dear Wizard, you probably did already but please double check the clearance of the window when fully opened and the speaker magnet. You wouldn’t be the first to miss that sometimes manufacturer’s need to use very shallow neodymium speakers because of the little clearance in the door.

The wizard is smart, but the guy who bought that nightmare on wheels isn’t.
Hertz Audio also makes orange speakers and they are really high quality, I use them in my Alfa Romeo 916 Spider
Can't say the exotics are my thing, but that is a beautiful car. It is nice seeing someone giving her the attention it needs.

Mrs. Wizard's interior review is the best part of the video, shout out to her!
I dunno about that. The Wizard did great to get new speakers. Speakers all tend to sound worse with age.
And spend multiple hours reconing a pair of old speakers? Do you think their shop hours are free?
I'm absolutely sure that this is the cheaper option.
@@benedykt123313 Yeah, the Wizard don't have time to fool around with old stuff. His labour will cost ten times more.

Hey wizard. Just started the video any van videos coming? Thanks keep up the great work.
Lambo likes to use cheap parts from other cars. Their v12 throttle bodies are from a v70 volvo 2.5t. The lambo branded one is 1600 and the volvo one is 160. Do ya research and dont get scammed!
One of the most beautiful cars ever made!
Speakers Dave. What would I do? There are small companies (one man band) who will replace the Cone Surround that fixes to the basket.
Never trust a grab-bar (Oh 💩 handle). I dumped it into second from highway speeds when my brother was looking out the side window and he just tore it off.
thats a really nice color lambo , with the black accents. Very nice.
One of those headlights are worth more than my entire car 🤯
Ebay speakers. In a lambo..Wow just wow..
Wizard thought the murci was assembled with front hood misaligned from factory. Just cant be, its a Lamborghini. There is a serious quality control and it was their halo car of the early 2000s. So yeah it got misaligned probably by some minor accident or rubber seals disintegrating or leaving track on one side orrr the metal bars holding the hood were loose on one side and moved a bit as mentioned.
Here I am trying to justify buying a 6spd pre-LP Gallardo,, but a 6spd Murcielago is the dream. They pretty much cost as much as a used Aventador these days. Only thing I don't like about it is the interior, but must be a blast to drive.
Rebuilding the hydraulic cylinders is really easy, it's just a matter of changing a couple o-rings.
I love Mrs Wizards interior reviews, i think about as i get into my own car, and i keep it slightly cleaner! 😅
I luv the Merci! Give it your Magick, Wiz!
I would've replaced the speakers with a high-quality component set for not much more.... speakers are supposed to SOUND good.... looks comes with a quality component
Good luck, Wizard! 🙂
Cheaping out on the sound system on that beautiful car! 😂 Cheap speakers sound like garbage.
Imagine every time the car breaks, it costs $$$ thousands. No thanks. My 1983 911SC is very fun and bullet proof, 76K miles, starts, runs and drives like new. Yearly maintenance cost- $150 in oil changes thru the past 5 years. It was major tuned in 2017 ( valve adjust, gaskets, plugs, filters, etc.- only $1700.) Have not replaced anything in almost 6 years, only oil and filter changes.
What a work of art thanks for this very interesting video.
If he's had it a while, I bet he could make a pretty penny if he sold it. They're QUITE pricy now.
EDIT: 17:23 - Like I was saying. 😂
Murcielago is spanish for bat, which is fitting given that it has wings. Its also fitting because murcielago was the name of a famous fighting bull.
You can rotate those wheels from side to side because the tires aren't directional.
I’ve never thought I’m poor until Wizard mentioned the 8k head light.
Why the miss matched tires? Also the wider rear tire is more for handling than putting power down.
This is the second time I've seen the Wizard say you can't rotate tires on a car that has different sizes in the front and rear. Unless they are directional, yes you can....
@@jasongrisdale3084 what smaller rim? The back rims are the same and the front rims are the same. You move the driver side to the passenger side and passenger to the driver. You obviously can't put the backs in the front...
Hi Wizard, well with speakers it is usually sound that people go for. However in a Lamborghini you can never hear the sound system because of the engine noise. So in this case looks are more important. 😂😂😂😂
What's the point in owning a car like that if Lamborghini and KONI aren't going to maintain support for it?
