Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante






The Los Angeles Auto Show has brought many surprises. Among many big names like the Porsche Cayman R, Chevy Camaro 2012 and 2012 BMW 6 Series, Lamborghini has released the Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante; which is the drop top version of the Superleggera. The car has merely better performance and weight attributes, so let's see if it lives up to it's name.

First if all, the car features a 5.2 V10 engine that can produce a 570 horsepower storm under the hood. 100km/h is reached in 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 324km/h (201mph).

As I said, the car is lighter, thanks to CFRP technology, and the use of several carbon fiber components inside and outside. The Sant' Agata Bolognese engineers reduced the cars weight by an impressive 65 kilograms (143lbs). So, the scale says 1485kg (3274lbs). Finally, the car is 4.39 meters long, 1.90 m wide and 1.18 m high.

As you can see, the car was redesigned outside. Lamborghini Centro Stile included a newly designed front bumper, a fully covered underbody, new sill elements and a redesigned diffuser four large tailpipes. A rear spoiler is also available.
