Lamborghini goes on to stretch the worth of this accomplishment by referring to its Super Trofeo Series as the "fastest single-brand competition". Who knows, it may very well be.

This week, Lamborghini make known that the last Reventon had been delivered, this time to a buyer in Britain who was “understandably delighted”.The buyer was accompanied by a British sales manager for Lamborghini’s outlet in Birmingham to the Sant’Agata manufacturing plant near Bologna, where Lamborghini’s president and CEO, Stephan Winkelmann... c31399686851d6fe7856a9fbaf71503d /Article/LA_Auto_Show_Preview_Lamborghini_Gallardo_LP_560_4_Spyder/3824 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 08:39:11 GMT Everybody was waiting for it and it seems now it happened: here is the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder LP 560-4 Spyder, the new convertible based on the latest coupe from the Italian manufacturer. The new spyder carries the same 5.2-liter V10 engine delivering 560 hp and 540 Nm, offering a top speed of 324 km/h 201 mph while the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h 62 mph will be made in 4 seconds.Stopping the vehicle will not be a problem due to the 380 brake discs on the front and 256 mm on the rear, hidden behind... cd73151520f6ff1796ed21829ac5ccd4 /Article/LA_2008_Lamborghini_Gallardo_LP560_4_Spyder_unveiled_LIVE/3791 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 08:38:51 GMT When we got word that Lamborghini was bringing a new model to the LA Auto Show, it wasn't hard to guess what it would be: the Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder. Sun-loving Californians would all drive convertibles if they could, making Los Angeles an ideal venue for the debut, and Lamborghini has a habit of following up its coupe models with a drop top version.

Drive up in a Lamborghini and it almost looks natural. During four days of test driving the all-new 2009 Gallardo LP560-- 4, I could have been in a man-kini and no one would have cared.

Yes, we'd like to see the car in motion too, but given that Lamborghini didn't name any engine specs and gave a wide variety of engine possibilities for a production version, we're guessing that the concept is without a motor underneath that long hood.

Lamborghini claims it will run to 100 km/h 62 mph in 3.7 seconds, while its top speed will be 6 mph higher, at 202.The new LP designation, similar to that used on the Murciélago, refers to the engine's longitudinal and posterior positioning in the car.

This scene reminded of an old movie, made by Federico Fellini in 1960s, La Dolce Vita.

This is just under $20,000 more than the standard Gallardo model, which the new LP560-4 replaces, but somehow we feel Lamborghini will have no trouble at all selling every one of them.

While the Murcielago has always remained the top model in the company’s line-up, it was strong sales of the Gallardo that allowed it to reach profitability after almost 30 years of losses. At its initial launch back in 2003 there was the worry that this new ‘entry-level’ Lamborghini would dilute the brand’s exclusive cachet. As the first model completely designed under the watchful and sensible eye of Audi, there was also some... c60d4736b57883a22c01807466040cf4 /Article/2009_Lamborghini_Gallardo_LP560_4_First_Drive_Review/2663 Mon, 19 May 2008 11:19:50 GMT Hugging the outside wall of the banking at Las Vegas Motor Speedway at about 130 miles per hour, we had a thought: “This dash-top stitching looks perfect.”Yes, the fencing was whizzing by in a blur, along with banner ads for cigarettes and motor oil and car wax and other assorted stuff.

We beg to differ, because if someone were to deliver us the big 'ol box you see above, we'd probably think it was the best gift ever. In that box is Lamborghini Reventon number one of twenty.

Lamborghini asked him to take a seat in a 2009 Gallardo for the filming of a European-market commercial set on the streets of Los Angeles and Palm Springs. Blowing tire smoke for the camera is nothing new to Sam since his blue Mopar-mobile has been featured in many a BF Goodrich tire commercial.

Judging from the comments left by our readers, you most definitely did, but in case you missed out, the Japanese aftermarket firm has released a similar body kit for the Lamborghini Gallardo.

No – and you could argue that it doesn't need to. Lamborghini has always had a knack for forging its own way, and rather than acting aloof, it's inviting everyone into the cult of the brand. The big tent that Lamborghini's erected in the iTunes store is called "The World of Lamborghini," and it strikes us a a very smart marketing move.

The supercar brand set records for sales in 2007 and doubled profit levels from the year before but if it hopes to continue this success it will need to look past its two traditional cash-cows.

That's pretty much been Lamborghini's attitude towards arch-rival Ferrari since Ferrucio Lamborghini starting building sportscars to spite Enzo Ferrari.

The record mark was set largely on sales of the popular Gallardo. With the new, lighter and more powerful Gallardo LP560-4 on the horizon, Lamborghini expects to push sales up another four percent to 2,500 units worldwide in 2008.

The lightweight Gallardo was only introduced one year prior but it was always meant to be a limited edition model and room was needed at the Sant’ Agata plant for Lambo’s latest model. The Superleggera, Italian for “lightweight”, was a stripped-out race car built for the roads. The car weighed 70kg 154.4 pounds less than the standard... 1a04b90ad0854543a3fb5369bcdf64a9 /Article/Lamborghini_lends_an_ear_name_for_Bluetooth_headset/275 Thu, 27 Mar 2008 07:35:10 GMT You wouldn't expect the owner of a six-figure supercar to be yapping through just any old headset, would you? Lamborghini wouldn't, and to that end has lent its name and badge to a new Bluetooth earpiece.Part of the Tonino Lamborghini range that brought us the Lamborghini espresso machine and Lamborghini cologne, the eponymous wireless gadget offers up to six hours of talk time and 160 hours of standby over a 10-meter range.

Pretty ambitious, but by and large the exotic Italian carmaker has lived up to its promise. In unveiling the LP560-4, the revised version of the Gallardo, Lamborghini opened up a whole new range of possibilities, and we're expecting new Spyder and possibly Superleggera models to follow at coming shows. The former is likely to be the first to make its debut. While modifying a vehicle – especially one with such dynamic... c1fb570a4092697c2676cb6f209acc22 /Article/Pics_Aplenty_Lamborghini_Reventon_breaks_out_of_Sant_Agata/211 Wed, 26 Mar 2008 08:09:16 GMT Click above to view the Lamborghini Reventon in hi-resWhen it comes to pure visual impact, there's not a thing on the road that has got anything on the Lamborghini Reventon. It's just so impossibly, relentlessly badass. It's got more sharp lines than a bag full of broken glass and more angles than a geometry set, yet manages to pull them all together in a package that makes Death itself run for cover. And with more than 640 demon horses on tap, it had better run fast.In tribute to the ultimate... 37058583adb3abf4a1cdc68fcaf78f58 /Article/Premier4509_Lamborghini_Murcielago_aero_kit/189 Wed, 26 Mar 2008 08:07:54 GMT It never ceases to amaze us how many people are out there for whom a car as perfect as the Lamborghini Murcielago is simply not enough. That’s where tuners like Japan’s Premier4509 step in, developing a range of aerodynamic performance enhancements, wheel and tire packages and interior mods. The new kit is limited to just 300 sets worldwide and will feature a numbered serial plate.

The device is the ‘Tonino Lamborghini Bello’ and apart from Lamborghini’s shield emblem on the outer casing there’s not much that the headset has in common with the Italian supercar brand. The headset is sold under the Tonino Lamborghini, a brand of exclusive watches and leather goods, and it was apparently designed with some input by Ferruccio... b4ac7a78401b5238a10459de5684b05f
