2010 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder

In the new Gallardo LP 560-4 Spyder, Lamborghini has designed a new driving experience like no other – breakthrough designs, breathtaking performances and amazing handling characteristics come together in one in this car. “The LP 560-4 is the next step in a huge success story,” says Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. “With the Spyder, we are now unveiling a car that is, quite simply, a new dimension in the latest Gallardo range. It is an entirely new model, whilst building on the substantial technical and design attributes of the Gallardo LP560-4 production strategy. The new Gallardo LP 560-4 Spyder is a simply breathtaking automobile – and utterly unparalleled in its commitment to extreme motoring.”

The engineers in Ufficio Technico Lamborghini, Sant’Agata-based Technical Department, have improved traction, handling and stability at high speeds. Riding under the night stars or soaring through the open air on a sunny day, Lamborghini has designed a flat top on this vehicle. The engine has a displacement of 5.2 liters, generates 560 hp at 8,000 rpm – giving top-notch output per litre. The Lamborghini LP560-4 Spyder can accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3.9 secs and reaching a top speed of 201 mph. With these results, no wonder this car is the most-extreme high-performance sports cars out there and is only on km/h less swift than the LP 560-4 Coupé.

2010 Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 Superveloce

Lamborghini at 2009 Geneva Motor Show – hits back with it’s 2010 Murcielago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce – the fastest and most pure sports car ever the made. It indicates that car will pick up the ‘LP 670-4’ designation, suggesting it will output 670hp (500kW) and retain an AWD system. Automobili Lamborghini has now expanded its model range with a new, exceptionally purist and even more extreme top model – the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is even more powerful, lighter and faster than the Murciélago LP 640.

Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, commented on SuperVeloce, “The new Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is the systematic continuation of our brand philosophy. It is more extreme and uncompromising than virtually any other automobile,” Further he said, “As the new top model of the highly successful Murciélago range, the SuperVeloce displays not only outstanding driving dynamics, it is also further evidence of our company’s technological expertise. Customers can look forward to an utterly unparalleled driving experience.”

The increase in engine output from 640 to 670 hp is the result of optimized valve timing and a reworked intake system. With the output of the 6.5 liter V12 increased to 670 hp and a weight reduction of 100 kg (220 lbs), the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce boasts a power-to-weight ratio of 2.3 kg (5.1 lbs) per hp.It goes from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a breathtaking 3.2 seconds and powers it on to a top speed of around 342 km/h (212 mph).

The Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4 SuperVeloce delivers its extreme power to the road with great reliability by its all-wheel drive. Explosive dynamics, tenacious cornering and extreme speeds – the Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4 SuperVeloce is a super sports car packed with aggressive power, but by no means a mean-spirited car. Its steering requires very little power support, giving full control of the car to the driver. Those prepared to tackle the beast head on are quickly rewarded with intimate contact and trust – as speed increases, so the Murciélago reveals its strengths, thus exposing a character with no hidden surprises and behavior that can always be anticipated.

The SuperVeloce is equipped with exclusive “Ares” alloy-forged wheels, bearing the exclusive five twin-spoke design. The front wheels are clad in 245/35 ZR 18 rubber, while the rears sport 335/30 ZR 18. High-grip Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires come as standard.

Four brakes controlled by a hi-tech ABS system are capable of mighty stopping power when required. The Carbon Ceramic (CCB) brakes are fanned by cooling air flowing through enlarged channels in the bodyshell, while openings in the front fenders provide additional ventilation for the Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4 SV. The ceramic discs are exceptionally lightweight, fade-free and capable of extremely high operational performance.

The super sports car has been extensively redesigned with an aggressive carbon-fiber GT wing replacing the current automatic spoilers and new lightweight forged alloy wheels with carbon-ceramic brake rotors also tipped to make the cut.

The interior in Alcantara and carbon fiber provides a purist and minimalist approach, including the door innards, seats and center console., which makes its contribution to weight reduction. E-gear will be standard, although it will be upgraded for faster shift times, and many of the stock aluminum components will be replaced with lighter magnesium pieces. Shift times are expected to drop from the current 0.4 seconds to around 0.2 seconds.

2009 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4

To outside observers, the whole process looks complicated and, well, a bit silly.

Clicking the right most e.gear button on the center console of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 engages Corsa mode. A push of a silver switch on the center stack disables the stability control and lights up two amber Gallardos on the instrument panel, the smaller of the two indicating that ESP is completely off. Left-footing the brake pedal and matting the throttle revs the LP560-4’s engine to over 5000 rpm and creates a cacophony of popping and banging.

Releasing the brake pedal sends up a poof of smoke as the rear tires chirp and slip through not quite one full rotation. The car then bogs, as though hunkering down, before exploding forward a millisecond later.

Lamborghini Offers Vehicle Financing

Sure, we'd all like a new Lamborghini, but who has the discipline to save up $345,000 for a Murcielago LP460 coupe? Now spendthrift supercar aficionados don't have to. They can finance one.

Motor Authority reports, "Lamborghini has announced a new 'Retail Finance Plan' of low-interest loans for its most exclusive vehicles on the market, the Murcielago LP640 Coupe and Roadster (model years 2009 and 2010)." To bring the deal to market, "The supercar brand is partnering with Woodside Credit and Volkswagen Credit Inc."

Kicking Tires gives some more detail: "The offers include 5.9% for a 12-year term. Yes, 12 years. If you have really good credit, including a credit score of more than 740, you can get 0% financing for 60 months. That comes out to $5,310 a month after the required 10% down payment."

Most car loans range from three to five years, with a six-year loan considered to be very long.

Pietro Frigerio, Chief Operating Officer of Automobili Lamborghini America, said in a statement, "The Lamborghini Retail Finance Plan allows enthusiasts to finance one of most exclusive cars on the road at a more competitive rate than ever before."

So just what do you (assuming your credit score is above 740) get for your $34,500 down and $5,310 a month? Both the Murcielago coupe and roadster make 640 horsepower and have a 0-to-62 time of 3.4 seconds, according to Lamborghini. The coupe has a top speed of 211 miles per hour while the roadster tops out at 205 miles per hour. That works out to about $540 per unit of horsepower.

Italian Lamborghini cop car on display in Holland

The Dutch are about to learn how Italian police catch speeders.

A Lamborghini police car with a top speed of 202 mph (325 kilometers per hour) was en route Thursday — presumably within the speed limits — from Italy to the eastern Dutch city of Ewijk to be the top attraction at a display of Dutch emergency services.

The car is equipped with the latest gadgetry, such as a medical platform under the hood that contains a cold box for transferring human donor organs.

An external camera feeds images to an onboard computer, which collates GPS data to calculate the speed of suspected violators. The images are transmitted to a police station where the number plate is checked.

The car was one of several that has been donated by its builders to Italian police. The 2008 model updated two cars Italian police received in 2004.

Dutch police spokesman Frank de Valk said the car will highlight a daylong demonstration Saturday for the public by police commandos, firefighters and ambulance services.

Although in active service, the Lamborghinis also have regularly appeared for ceremonial events, including New York's Columbus Day parade.

Some experts say the Lamborghini is the fastest police car in service, but one Web site, http://www.gizmag.com, claims a police vehicle from Germany's Brabus Rocket, an upgraded Mercedes-Benz, clocked 226 mph (362 kph ) at the 2006 Essen Motor Show.

Lamborghini Launches Christmas Collection Inspired By Gallardo LP 550-2 Valentino Balboni

To celebrate Christmas Lamborghini-style, the Italian supercar company has produced a range of limited edition gift-boxed candles and ceramic baubles, inspired by its recently revealed Gallardo LP 550-2 Valentino Balboni.

The ceramic baubles in box-sets of three are finished in contrasting Blue Caelum and White Monocerus, two of eight colours in which the Gallardo LP 550-2 Valentino Balboni, a model dedicated to the legendary Lamborghini test driver, was launched this year. A set of slow-burning candles in the same colors is also available.

Finally, for fans of Lamborghini’s recently launched Reventón Roadster, Lamborghini has also launched a new clothing range that includes sweatshirts and long-sleeved polos.

Other items include trench coats, T-shirts, and faux-fur hooded jackets.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP-640 JB-R Storms In

German tuner JB Car Design specialize in building one-off, bespoke vehicles designed to meet individual client's every whim no matter how demanding they may be. JB Car Design even brags that it can rearrange a car’s entire cabin if a client so desires, but thankfully this option hasn’t been applied to the firm’s latest custom Lamborghini Murcielago ‘LP-640 JB-R’.

The extent of the modifications extends to almost every inch of the Murcielago. In fact, of the original Lamborghini only the doors remain the same--even the roof panel is changed. There’s a bolder, more aggressive front bumper, eye-catching sills, a more dynamic rear, and a specially designed titanium sports exhaust system.

Such a bespoke exterior appearance has to be matched on the inside, and luckily the tuning firm also has experience in this area. Rich leather and hand-finished aluminum accents abound, and little touches such as the specially engineered aluminum air vents reveal the extent that the firm goes to when creating its cars.

Power upgrades range from about 710 to 750-horsepower, and are joined by a new F1-style steering wheel with a rocker switch for shifting gears. Other modifications include 20-inch Schmidt Revolution aluminium wheels and the aforementioned titanium sports exhaust system.

Pricing for the conversion starts at more than €500,000 (approximately $738,348), plus a Lamborghini Murcielago, of course.

One-Off JB Design LP640

JB Car Design have a special LP640 up for sale at the moment. They are occasional car tuners and the LP640 was their latest product. It’s up for €355,000, needless to say, the 2008 car features a whole host of upgrades that make up for the cost.

To start with the body modifications, all parts were constructed in carbon fibre. There’s new front & rear spoilers, mirror casing, a larger diffuser, a new air manifold, side skirts and a re-designed bonnet.

The 20″ Schmidt Revolution Wheels hide a set of ceramic brakes with contrasting yellow calipers. The body work has been carried out in a unique colour; “Blood to Black Diamond” which is limited to 911 liters worldwide. 10 coats of this have been applied.

2010 Lamborghini LP550-2 Valentino Balboni

As a back-to-the-future model, the LP550-2 not only lists no technical breakthroughs, it actually goes backwards.

For starters, Lambo ripped a lot of weight out of the LP560-4’s front diff compared to the original Gallardo, but the Balboni car does away with it, and the centre diff, completely.

Not just that, but it has less power, too. That’s only a minor software tweak, though, because the only mechanical difference through the powertrain (apart from the amputated diffs) is a new exhaust.

Though the LP550-2 Balboni doesn’t take Lamborghini in a new styling direction, it does modify the existing goods a bit. Shy people don’t go near Lamborghini showrooms with checkbooks, but you’ll need an astonishingly high tolerance for attention to fork out for a Balboni edition car, even if there’s only 250 of them worldwide.

For starters, the colours are, well, bright. Bright yellow, bright green, just plain bright. Then, in case anybody missed it, there’s a long white stripe down the middle, then another offset stripe down one side of that.

Visually, it’s a trifle loud, perhaps.

It’s a bit the same inside, with the two sharpest color contrasts they could find in the leather shop slapped together to make a lighter, brighter interior, all the way from the seats to the dashboard.

And then there’s Balboni’s signature, machined into a piece of alloy that you see every time you approach the door handle.

It still has satellite navigation, it still has the Audi-sourced multi-media system and screen and it still feels like a luxurious, comfortable place from which to launch attacks.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP 640

As if the Lamborghini Murcielago LP 640 wasn't exclusive or expensive enough, the Italian luxury sports car has decided to partner with design house Versace once again for a designer luxury supercar.

Featuring exclusive Versace logos plastered in all the right places, the 2009 Lamborghini Murcielago LP 640 Roadster Versace is by special order only. Lamborghini touts the Versace edition Murcielago as a partnership between two exclusive Italian luxury brands.

The open-top Lambo has all the standard features of the screaming-fast Murcielago LP 640, decked out in white with white-and-black leather and a new clear casing for the engine cover. More photos on the way as they are released.

2009 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4

Making its worldwide premiere in Geneva, Lamborghini’s facelifted Gallardo features a series of styling and mechanical updates including a more powerful V10 engine. Design-wise, the all-wheel-drive coupe from Sant’Agata stands out thanks to the more aggressively styled front and rear-ends that give the Gallardo LP560-4 a menacing new look.

Looks however are only half the story on the 2009 Gallardo LP560-4 as Lamborghini upgraded the 5.2-liter V10 engine that now develops 560 Hp at 8,000 rpm. The increase of 40 Hp compared with that of the previous Gallardo, and the approximate 20 kg or 44 lbs reduction in weight, improves the power weight ratio to 2.5 kg per Hp and thus enhances performance. According to Lambo, the LP560-4 accelerates from 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.7 sec; its speed at 11.8 sec is 200 km/h (124 mph) while its top speed lies at 325 km/h or 202 mph. At the same time, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced by 18 per cent.

Additionally, Lamborghini's engineers have also redesigned the four-wheel drive transmission and the suspension improving traction, handling and stability at high speeds.
