With 552 hp, a body to die for, and a 0–60 time of 3.2 seconds, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 has little room for improvement.
But there is room for variation, and perhaps the most significant is the new Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni.
The LP550-2 Valentino Balboni is named after Lamborghini’s esteemed test driver, who was hired by Ferruccio Lamborghini himself in 1967, and who has been instrumental in developing the dynamic attributes of every Lamborghini model introduced since 1973.
With production limited to 250 units, Lamborghini decided to make the LP 550-2 stand out by equipping it with unique front and rear bumpers, a more aggressive rear diffuser, and a retro white strip that runs from the hood to the rear spoiler.
Available in eight different exterior color choices, the Valentino Balboni also features dark grey Scorpius wheels which cover contrasting brake calipers.
On the inside, the new Gallardo boasts black leather upholstery which is contrasted by a white color strip on the seats and a center console covered in Polar white leather.
Other unique touches include a badge that bears Valentino Balboni’s signature, a transparent engine cover, and a standard GPS navigation system with Bluetooth connectivity.
The special edition Gallardo LP 550-2 Valentino Balboni will be priced from €162,000 in Europe, £137,900 in the UK, and $219,800 in the US.
