There’s a bit of speculation around suggesting Lamborghini will reveal two new models at the Geneva Motor Show in March. One is expected to be a Roadster version of the Aventador. It’s said the Roadster will feature a retractable carbon fibre roof. Also in the mix is the chance Lamborghini could reveal an SUV, complete [...]
David Dopp, a 34-year-old truckie from Utah in the United States, went from zero to hero when he won a Lamborghini Murcielago in a convenience store promotion. Bravo him. Only trouble is he crashed it within six hours of taking delivery. Boo him! Apparently, while taking a mate for a joyride, he struck some black [...]
As well as playing with cars around the Nürburgring, German mag Sport Auto spends a lot of time at the Hockenheim track. In this video you can see a full lap of the circuit filmed from the side of a Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4. Then, for giggles we see a camera pointed at the dash as [...]
If you had a 700hp supercar, with all-wheel drive and launch control, and an empty road ahead of you, do you reckon you’d give it a crack? Yeah, thought so. Well, given it’s unlikely that you, or I, are going to have access to such equipment any time soon here’s a video filmed from the [...]
We thought the Super Trofeo Stradale was going to be the last iteration in the successful Gallardo model range for Lamborghini. But they have managed to squeeze out another one with the LP 550-2 Spyder. The key is in the 550-2 model designation, that’s 550hp from the well loved 5.2 litre V10 and a 2 [...]
Jason White’s Lamborghini Gallardo is a crowd favourite on the Australian tarmac rally scene. Always competitive and always spitting a few flames out the back. But it’s not very often that he wins a rally while his car is genuinely on fire. That’s exactly what happened on the weekend when he took out the 2011 [...]
Evo magazine has assembled 10 of the world’s best performance cars to try and establish which one they think was the best to hit the market in 2011. Following a few phone calls, 10 turned into 11 when they added the just released BMW M5 to the list. As you would. The results of eCOTY [...]
This is the sorry result of a Lamborghini Gallardo test drive in Sydney on the weekend. The incident happened at around 9 o’clock on Saturday morning when the driver was leaving Macquarie Street to join the Cahill Expressway. Unfortunately a barrier got in the way. We are led to believe it was all totally innocent [...]
Thanks to VadGTI from the The Car Lounge we can bring you these pics of Bruce Wayne’s Lamborghini Aventador. The Lambo was spotted on the set of The Dark Knight Rises, the latest Batman movie. Not too much else to add other than Wayne has good taste in cars. Actually, an Aventador would make quite [...]
Couldn’t make it to the Lamborghini presentation at the Frankfurt Motor Show overnight? Neither could we, but here’s the next best thing with video of CEO Stefan Winkelmann telling us all about his new toy: the Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradale. Helps if you can speak German, though.
Lamborghini CEO Stefan Winkelmann has just confirmed at the Frankfurt Motor Show the company will be building a very limited run of Sesto Elemento models. Only 20 will be made and you’ll need a hefty €1.5 million to get your hands on one. Speaking at the Lamborghini presentation overnight Winkelmann said, “The Sesto Elemento is [...]
The Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale; it’s the most extreme Gallardo ever, according to Lamborghini and, with that long name, it’s a sub-editor’s nightmare. It’ll be a boy racer’s dream, of course, and the rear wing lifted straight from the racing version seals the deal. Really, who can say no to the car’s [...]
Last week Lamborghini told us they will be bringing a new “super sports car” to the Frankfurt Motor Show. They only teased us, of course, and the immediate speculation was the car in question could be a production version of the Sesto Elemento. A sub-1000kg 570hp beast revealed in concept form at last year’s Paris [...]
At last year’s Paris Motor Show the spectacular looking Lamborghini Sesto Elemento was revealed. Now a new teaser released by Lambo gives hope that we’ll be seeing the Sesto Elemento in some form again at the Frankfurt Motor Show. We’ve previously reported the carbon origami creation would be on sale in October, so it stands [...]
There’s no chance of ever seeing a manual transmission in any future Lamborghini according to US website Motor Trend. The news follows an interview with Maurizio Reggiani, Lamborghini’s R&D director, who revealed no more than 2% of cars they build today are fitted with a manual box. Of course, the Aventador LP700-4 doesn’t offer a [...]
