    Just picked up an 02 arancio borealis murci but I need to make sure it clears my storage garage.

    Can someone with a 02-06 murci please measure for me the width of the car with the mirrors fully open, and then with the mirrors closed? Please be as accurate as possible because if wikipedia's measurements are right, I only have about 3" of wiggle room.

    Appreciate the help!

    The measurements should be in the owners manual.

    This seems like something you should have figured out before buying the car....

    Would have been the smart thing to do....If nothing else just get a bigger storage unit with a 10-12 ft door.

    This is actually inaccurate...I have 82" between my wheel wells of my trailer and a Murcielago or LP640 will fit between the wheel wells with approximately 1/2" or LESS on each side due to the air intakes on the lower portion of the car...this is the widest part of the car aside from when the mirrors are open.

    A 670SV has about 1/4" on each side between the wheel wells....you'll be closing the mirrors to pull the car in the garage if it's any more narrow than 91"...my door opening is 92" on the trailer and can pull in without closing the mirrors but always close them as a precaution.

    Info above may or may not help. Good luck.

    My clearance is 95" but I would still like to know from owners that can actually measure this for me.
