2011 Anderson Lamborghini Gallardo White Review

As might be expected, the company ANDERSON headquartered in Dusseldorf is unlikely taboo that you could not throw overboard. This company is well-known for its bold solutions for top flight vehicles of different origin exceeding the declared specifications. So this Lamborghini Gallardo White Edition is a further proof of the inexhaustible creativity of this team from the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia.


Performance kit takes the horsepower from 560 to 600 hp. This is done with series of modifications that include the use of software optimization and the addition of a modified air filter and a sport exhaust system with additional Rennkats. The tuning package includes a remote-controlled valve adjusting system that lets driver opt from three different levels of noise and also reduces approximately 22 kg in weight. A special sport suspension module combined with a precise undercarriage significantly changes the driving dynamics. Three-piece, shiny black rims - each with a white painted deep dish - in dimensions of 9x20 inch with 245/30-20 tires in front and 12.5 x 20 inch with 325/25-20 rear provide adequate adherence with the asphalt surface.














Externally visible modifications include carbon trim, widening aero kit consisting of front apron, side skirts, rear bumper diffuser and a rear spoiler. And window and tail light tinting should be mentioned also. The look is completed by LED lights on the sides of the vehicle and contrasting red-painted calipers. 

The interior features exclusive white carbon details. There are the vents, the hand brake lever, the shift paddles, the dashboard, the steering wheel, door handle inlays, the shift lever and the border of the internal light in the roof lining. The seats of the White Racing Edition are finished in black Alcantara and black and white leather; the edges of seats are entirely in white; doors and seats have diamond-shaped stitching.

WORLD CLASS COP CARS

It's interesting to see what kind of cars the police around the world are driving:








Germany
: Brabus CLS Rocket
With 730hp from a twin-turbo V12 and a top-speed of 225.19mph, the

Brabus CLS Rocket is currently the world's fastest legal sedan.





Germany: Porsche 91 1 Carrera
The Porsche 911 Carrera S has been extensively modified by TechArt for

its role as a police car. With a 5 liter V10 and 500hp it's capable of over

186 mph and sprinting to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds.










Italy: Lamborghini Gallardo
Lamborghini donated one of these beauties to the Italian Police back in 2004.

They probably liked it as they purchased another one a year later for around

$166,000. Top speed: 190mph. Powered by a 5 liter V10 with 500hp.





Italy: Smart
Not quite a supercar, but I bet chases on the narrow streets of Rome are

much more interesting since the Italian Police got this.




USA: Dodge Magnum

Michigan Police acquired an entire Magnum fleet, (they could be used

as rams by their looks)














USA : Corvette C5









USA: Ford Mustang










USA : Hummer H2
700hp Hummer powered by a 7.0L supercharged V8 for a sheriff in Texas



UK : Lamborghini Gallardo

Similar to the Italian Police Gallardo, just with a crappy paint job





UK: Lotus Exigeï
The Exige is a lightweight, high performance car that accelerates from 0 to 60

faster than typical V8 cars and yet only uses around 5 liters / 100 km.



Australia : Holden VE Commodore

















Japan: Nissan Skyline GT-R



China: Hummer (It just HAD to be a replica)

Holland: Spyker C8 Spyder
406hp and a V8 with Lamborghini doors. Maximum speed: 186mph


Canada : Jaguar S Type


Bulgaria : Porsche 911


Saudi Arabia : Lamborghini Gallardo

Yet another Gallardo with a better paint job than the British version.

 

Malaysia : Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution x

2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera


Lamborghini's latest Gallardo Superleggera model adds horsepower and subtracts weight to create a menacing track-ready supercar that will hit 62 mph in just 3.5 seconds and top 200 mph. Read all about the 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera premiering at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show in this article from the automotive experts at Motor Trend.



Lamborghinis have long stood for sheer, menacing speed, usually courtesy of a monster engine. It's a solid formula, but any engineer will tell you that you eventually reach a point of diminishing returns. How, then, do you make an even more insane Lamborghini? Make it lighter.
Lamborghini first applied the "lighter is better" approach to the compact Gallardo back in 2007, aptly naming the special model the Superleggera, or "super-light." Extensive use of carbon-fiber and the deletion of such frivolities as a radio and cup holders knocked more than 200 pounds off of the curb weight, allowing the stripped-down, road-legal track car to hit 62 mph in 3.8 seconds. The lack of creature comforts didn't scare away buyers -- Lamborghini moved 618 Gallardo Superleggeras during its one-year production run.Built on the success of the original and with lessons learned in the new, one-make Lamborghini Super Trofeo racing series, Lamborghini is bringing back the Superleggera, and it's lighter and wilder than ever. The speed freaks in Sant'Agata went over the Gallardo, now in a new generation known as the LP 560-4, with a fine-tooth comb and managed to shave 38 more pounds over the first Gallardo Superleggera, dropping the curb weight to just 2954 pounds and making it the lightest Lamborghini available.
To strip 154 pounds from a standard Gallardo LP 560-4, Lamborghini engineers first turned to the original Superleggera's bag of tricks. The exterior mirrors, the new rear diffuser and side sills, the wing, the engine compartment lid and parts of the underbody are all carbon-fiber, as are the interior door panels, the transmission tunnel, the shifter surround, and the seat shells. Where the last Superleggera used polycarbonate instead of glass for the engine window, the new model uses the lightweight material for the rear and side windows as well. In all, 88 of the 154 pounds lost came from the carbon-fiber and another 28.6 pounds were lost in the 19-inch forged-aluminum wheels.
