Less than 24 hours after . handful of images leaked, our spy photographers have managed to catch Lamborghini’. upcoming Gallardo LP550-2 outside of Germany’. famous Nrburgring.
Essentially . slightly revised rear-wheel drive version of Lamborghini’. stunning all-wheel drive LP560-4, the Gallardo LP550-2 features new front and rear bumpers as well as . redesigned rear diffuser which creates additional downforce for added grip.
As the name change implies, the LP550-2 has been detuned to produce 550hp (405kW) instead of the LP560-4′..560hp (412kW). Despite this minor annoyance, the removal of the all-wheel drive system means the LP550-2 weighs 30kg (66 lbs) lesswhich allows it to rocket from 0-100 km/. in just 3.9 seconds.
Besides losing weight, the transformation from LP560-4 to LP550-2 should knock nearly 10% off the Gallardo’. massive sticker price. Unfortunately production will be limited to 250 units, so potential owners should act quickly.
