Lamborghini Gallardo Short Animation

For those who are into 3D-animation and Lamborghini, you might enjoy this one. 3D-animation artist Jiri Adamec shows off his latest short film he created for the 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. The project was approached as if it were an animated Lamborghini advertisement. If you take a look at a sample Lamborghini advertisement you can see a resemblance by the way it was created, with the sound track and intense ‘adrenaline’.

2012 Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Spyder Revealed, Redefines to Word Amazing

by admin

2012 Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Spyder

Let’s just say Lamborghini just resigned the word amazing. Introducing the 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo 550-2 Spyder: the latest Lamborghini to the family.

The LP550-2 Spyder features the same 405kW 5.2-litre V10 engine the standard, though it loses some performance owing to structural reinforcements that compensate for the loss of a fixed roof, which don’t worry many.

The result sees the Spyder scales at 1520kg, bringing acceleration down from a blistering quick 3.9 seconds for the 0-62 MPH sprint to a still-indecently-fast 4.2 seconds. Top speed is 198 MPH.

Lamborghini has yet to release pricing or on-sale date info.

Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale [Video]

by admin


Lamborghini has done it again. This time, they’ve taken it to the next level. They’ve made the most extreme, incredible Gallardo ever made – the Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale.

The street-legal Lambo is based on the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo and boasts the same engine (with no modifications done) and a rear spoiler as well. The V10 unit is good for 570 PS (hence the name, LP 570) (419 kW / 562 hp) and 540 Nm of torque (398 lb-ft) and is attached to a robotized e-gear six-speed transmission with steering wheel paddles.

With a maximum dry weight of 1340 kilograms (2,954 pounds), the car sprints from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 60 MPH) in 3.4 seconds and has a top speed of 320 Km/h (199 mph).

The Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale will run a limited production run of just 150 numbered units.

The Super Trofeo Stradale comes in a new “Rosso Mars” finish, the traditional color for Italian motor-racing, with a matte black finish for the rear spoiler, bonnet and front air intakes. Wheels are ultra-lightweight 19-inches with rims painted in high-glossy black.

On the inside is a finish in Black Alcantara with fantastic red stitching as well as accents in “Rosso Mars” Alcantara.

Buyers can choose between a purer racing cabin with roll cage and fire extinguisher or a more comfy set-up with navigation and Bluetooth, depending on what type of usage the buyer wishes for.

Blown Up Lamborghini Gallardo

The Lamborghini Gallardo shown burst into flames near Bukit Damansara, Indonesia at 11:50am 9.23.11.

The owner, who remains unnamed managed to escape without any problems. As for the Lamborghini, it was not as lucky. The mint condition Gallardo blew up, leaving it in very downside condition. It’s value, of course, is worth over $400,000, not something great to lose.

The owner told he was warming up near Jalan Beringin when he noticed clouds of smoke coming out from the bonnet of the car.

“I stopped the car and got off and then it suddenly burst into flames,” the owner said, adding that he has had possession of the super car for three years and was extremely heartbroken to see it go in flames. The owner believed a fuel leak could have caused the wreck.

As for the optional E-Gear paddle-shifted transmission, the price jumps to $202,995, quite a change.

Next up is the Lamborghini Gallardo Tricolore, a limited edition of the rear-drive Gallardo with no available manual transmission (more information on the Lamborghini here). Pricing begins at $196,995, with the $2,995 destination charge and the $2,100 gas guzzler tax. Both the Valentino Balboni and Bicolore Edition Gallardo’s are special order only, hence I said limited edition.

The all-wheel-drive Lamborghini is the classic Gallardo LP-560 Coupe, which has the 5.2-liter V-10 engine’s output to a good 560 horsepower. The the six-speed manual, and this version will cost you $207,995, including destination charge and gas guzzler tax. If you want the E-Gear option, the price starts at $217,095, a $10,000 jump.

If you want your Gallardo topless, the LP 560-, which uses the same drivetrain as the LP 560-4 Coupe, starts from $231,395 with the six-speed manual transmission. As for the E-Gear transmission, and the price rises to $240,495, inclusive of destination and gas guzzler tax.

If a less interesting Gallardo is more to your liking, the 570 horsepower Gallardo LP570 Superleggera starts at a nifty $243,595 with the manual transmission, destination charge and gas guzzler tax. As for the E-Gear paddle-shifted version will cost you $242,695, inclusive, which is $900 less than the manual gearbox.

The Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante is a topless version of the Gallardo Superleggera, and it’s priced from $254,695 for the manual transmission, or $253,095 for the E-Gear transmission.

Finally, we can’t forget the only one version of the 700 horsepower, all-wheel-drive, seven-speed E-Gear equipped Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4. The price although, including destination charge and gas guzzler tax, is $393,695, not such a bad price for the car.
