Vorsteiner Lamborghini Tuning to the Renazzo-V program

Many companies are offering tuning for Lamborghini V10 mode, the Gallardo is a popular Raging Bull... customize one due to the lower rate of entry into the world of Lamborghini but also because many Gallardo have left the factory gates since was introduced in 2003.
Vorsteiner is already known in circles for the presentation of some really amazing cars of Porsche, Mercedes and Ferrari, to name a few tuning, however for the raging bull only offered beautiful wheels in various sizes... until now.
Meet the Renazzo-V... a new kit aero for Lamborghini Gallardo built since 2008, are talking about evolution LP560-4, LP570-4 here. When several companies are offering all kinds of options to activate its classic pre-2008 Gallardo in an imitation of the more recent model Vorsteiner took a different approach and objectives only most recent evolutions V10.
The special program of Vorsteiner Renazzo-V for the Lamborghini Gallardo is actually a complete choice package, naturally, there is a new front bumper which completely replaces the original unit, taking current logo V12, the Aventador style signals. Even upward pointing fins that resemble to the seen on the Aventador Jota... However Vorsteiner came an innovative option: carbon fiber separators are removable.
With a front facing this aggressive only you know you have to get the rest of the car in synchronization and Vorsteiner seems to get this message... air intakes brand just behind the doors of the Gallardo received a sheet of thin carbon fiber, that again makes us think in the Aventador... but it only takes a second look at the lower side skirts... that is almost the Reventon styletomas pleasant angles in front of the rear wheels, and a clear 'ala' connect carbon fiber front wheel arch to the rear... looks good.
For the side front and side of the Renazzo-V by Vorsteiner are... time to focus our attention on the back. And this comes as a bit of surprise. In the first teaser shot we have seen nice air behind the rear wheel, however, in these new vaccines that has disappeared... but fear what is left could not, well aware that we forget about the ventilation holes.
It seems that the entire rear bumper has been replaced... Do remember that the 'new LP560-4' seen in Paris? Well Vorsteiner also redesigned the rear air vents... and makes them look is good. The Center grate is still there and he got a diagonal line as the new LP560-4, but two grids of the limbs have been replaced by a vent box... which seem to be taken directly from a racing car, in fact, completely different to the factory specifications.
Does add to this a carbon fiber diffuser clara with the holder of the registration and the additional ventilation grilles in four vertical fins really intimidating and a central exit, naturally the escape of four councils are still there, it would be a mistake to delete those if you ask me... a larger diameter doesn't hurt really, or perhaps an angular look as the escape from Aventador?
Final for the bodywork option is carbon fiber, fixed rear spoiler that looks like the wing of optional Superleggera, factory, which would make sense as Vorsteiner also puts a nice doors with script tag Renazzo V... in Superleggera full sight.
A choice of 19- and 20-inch wheels are available to be mounted in the Gallardo Renazzo-V Vortsteiner, monoblock or three parts manufacturing... Vorsteiner catalog offers the style of wheel to meet customers most.
A small detail... the Renazzo-V Vorsteiner Lamborghini kit is only available in March 2013... I can't wait to see installed in a real Lamborghini to be honest.


Winnower DMC LP900-4 Molto Veloce Roadster

Configure your own DMC 4 LP900 Molto Veloce Roadster
German-based DMC is about to unveil something really special on 12.12.12... but lets not forget his current Molto Veloce aero kit in the by now famous orange Aventador in Hong Kong (which is getting a new look as we speak by the way) and also in the stunning white Aventador on display at the 2012 SEMA show a few weeks ago.
But why not take the kit from DMC 4 LP900 Molto Veloce in the next level... installing on the new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Roadster... albeit only virtually for now.
I I went for a liquid in 'my' Aventador Roadster chrome look, finished in a tone slightly darked in red, similar to the well-known Candy Red in the hot rod scene, rolling in gold finshed wheels on a completely white interior... now one so bright shadow could be a nightmare to maintain, but they seem large.
And of course the all DMC Molto Veloce was assembled kit, the deep front spoiler, wide side skirts, large rear diffuser and that impressive rear spoiler looking for... everything finished in clear carbon fiber so it contrasts very well with the red body deep.
If you don't like this combination of colors... don't worry, I've added the option to 'DMC Molto Veloce' to the 'LamboCONFIGURATOR' time ago... programmed in this way can create its own DMC 4 LP900 Molto Veloce Roadster, so prefer.

Bat LP620 Penna Bianca

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 took over the reign of the bat in 2011, ten years after it was introduced in the automotive world to succeed the devil already classic and while the bat has evolved over one decade in the impressive LP670-4 Super Veloce limited edition, we must not forget the original model was a 6.2 l version looking forangular without massive rear spoiler or deep Chin deflector.
In fact lines classic, clean in the original bat not age well according to some... so that several companies have been producing all kinds of kits tuning or conversion, the original bat becoming the latest SV seem equal (by performance LB for example)... and a new option for owners of a 6.2 bat has only revealed... by Abflug in Japan from 2001 to 2006.
The full name of this new aerodynamic package is bat LP620 Penna Bianca by Gallant Abflug... lets just call it LP620 Penna Bianca from now on. The complete kit consists of a new front bumper, new side skirts, a new rear bumper including lower diffuser and a stunning rear spoiler. But that is only the bodywork, naturally, there are some more options to be installed by the owner of the lucky.
One is a known ARQRAY custom made exhaust muffler, manifold seems to stay stock, however, so probably no no increase of power in this Bianco Isis (bright white) finished bat, which is a bit odd as LP620 would mean 620 hp. However in this case could be derivative of the displacement of the motor... still 6200cc (well 6192cc to be exact).
Now you have to admit that the original factory 580 hp isn't too bad, especially when the car looks like this, apart from the bodywork and custom exhaust Abflug also offers some new shoes for this lady. How 8.5x19 inches in the front and 13 x 20 inches in the back sounds... not bad I guess, this is compounded by the fact that the front wheels using rubber Pirelli P Zero Rosso in 235/35 ZR19 while the later are massively wide 345/25 ZR20 tires Italian rubber, all innovative Abflug Prism III... in this case fashion black finish.
Seems that this particular Bianca LP620 Penna has been developed by Abflug for a specific owner who asked them to modify their personal bat into something more contemporary, the information found on the web site of Abflug is not clear if there will be a production of this kit to other customers, but rumored Abflug will show no less than five new kits in 2013 Tokyo Motor Show... This LP620 Penna Bianca being one of them.
When we take one look more closely this LP620 Penna Bianca design aero kit is obvious designers took a long look at the latest offerings of Sant'Agata... style models signals as LP570 Superleggera and Aventador J are visible from the beginning. The new bumper clearly shows large air intakes that resemble those used in the Superleggera... If you look at the part of this new unit is also evident the black section reminds us the Aventador J front bumper, even more so when it appears that the dark sections in this Penna Bianca are really clear carbon fiber.
The new side skirts on the other hand are more in line with the LP640, LP670-4 style, tomas air larger with a vent on the back... in the additional Penna Bianca, horizontal louver is used to break an opening big enough otherwise in front of the rear wheels.
Later really get interesting, one is the new exhaust tip, completely in style with the LP640 model of this car, but the style has been completely back here, many lines and air intakes on diffuser/rear bumper cover new, including a large section of carbon fiber surrounding the escape of the abovementioned Council... However the taillights remain the same, which is an obvious witness to the age in the bat... I would have gone for newer drives of the LP640 with its style round instead of these rectangular lights... but the taste is personal, so I guess that is happy with them, as they are the owner.
Any tuning company would release a kit for a car as a Lamborghini Murcielago without an optional rear wing and Abflug comes with an aerodynamic profile very nice carbon fiber to be mounted in the rear, it seems a little LB-rendimiento... Super Veloce style but with a totally different strut design... This unit Abflug is also fixed on the rear section behind the engine cover.
In everything that we know that the interior remained stock in this white Lamborghini Murciélago, also factory remained suspension and brakes original... so that the owner chose to only looks, is not necessarily a bad thing... I really like some of the ideas shown in this new kit.
Pricing and availability is not known yet, I guess we will have to wait until the 2013 Hall of Tokyo for details on this bat LP620 Penna Bianca...


Concepto de Lamborghini por Alex Imnadze

Over the years we have seen various designs on a new Lamborghini concept both from the Centro Stile in Sant' independent agate, aspiring aspiring designers from around the world... this concept of GT gold snowflakes came from this category.
Alex Amnadze devised the concept shown in this page, taking signs of legendary models like the Lamborghini Miura and the Countach style, but still closely based on the current flagship of Raging Bull V12, the Aventador LP700-4, especially in front of your design.
Front bumper air intakes look very close to those used in the Aventador, so in keeping with the angular style of Lamborghini models these days, also the small spoiler among them Tomás reminds us of the view in the Aventador... the 'fins' on the side of the front bumper look a little strange, in fact, could be functional, but I think that does not make it into production in Sant'Agata in the final.
Used headlights also are very similar to the Aventador units while defenses close embrace massive wheels to flow towards other air behind the front wheels, that would lead us to believe that we are facing a striker V10 or V12 engine requiring cooling vents in that situation... However the front really angles down strongly by what we wonder if such a motor even fit between the front wheels.
One thing that seems really strange are the form of exterior mirrors on the fender front... somehow they should be placed on the doors, which would become much more balanced... and would very probably do wonders for aerodynamics to the overall impression of this concept.
There is a pleasant, angular script on the doors leading to a broad set of shoulders in this design, something similar was observed in the Lamborghini Estoque concept a few years ago, makes the car look really impressive and offers the option of a wider in the rear track... which improves the stability at high speed, something worthwhile in a car with 600 hp... or more.
There are also side air intakes this concept, however just behind side window there is a small Cove... that puzzles us to be honest. Design shows a flow of hatchback... or is a configuration presented after all... There is no information on this is given by the designer, and somehow the height at the front seems insufficient to put a great engine in front... on the other hand air intakes to provide cooling for a design presented are rather small.
We see a set of vents in the back, sloping down from the ceiling... a style that you have seen in the classic Miura, but these do not cover a motor... or a 2 + 2 seating configuration perhaps? If this concept has the engine later there would be enough space to squeeze two additional seats in back... that would mean a 2 ++ 2 Lamborghini GT might be possible.
As usual and returned in the tail lights too, not three LEDs fixed on the Gallardo and Aventador, but six on both sides, add the great escape in the center of the rear diffuser and has a pretty impressive rear cover.
So Alex shows a concept of Lamborghini GT leads some Aventador style and adds a bit of classic in the equation Miura which puts a style rapier rear at a high speed of Gran Turismo which could very well have a front engine... maybe even a hybrid, do you not?
Naturally, never be to seeing this concept in life rea on the production line in Sant'Agata, Urus SUV concept already has been delayed at least 2017 and rapier is on ice indefinitely for now Lamborghini is working hard to get a successor by Gallardo in the market... to add a third model as this GT in the production line is not a viable option in the short term.
I wonder what you can admire at the motor show of Geneva from 2013 in March next year... a sight on the successor of Gallardo. For only highly doubt that... maybe yet another 'Special Edition' in the current Gallardo or a totally innovative only as Aventador J previously this year... only time will tell, but I'm still secure from Automobili Lamborghini SpA has some pleasant surprises for us the line...


Aristotle Onassis 1969 Lamborghini Miura P400S

Let's take a trip by memories and check out Greeks successes in the 1960s, early 1970s... Stamatis Kokotas was a famous singer in those days, and one of his fans was nothing less than the billionaire Aristotle Onassis.
Kokotas was not only a famous singer back then, was also un-piloto rally... and as the money was not a problem for ship tycoon Onassis a small sample of his gratitude gave Stamatis... his own, 1969 Lamborghini Miura P400S in metallic Brown on a Brown interior, full leather... now why not get gifts like that?
The Lamborghini Miura was the epitome of automobile must have items for the rich and famous in the early 1970s, a race car for use on the open road, everyone on the list of who's who in the world had... or wanted to have this toro... Remember that Frank Sinatra (1970 Miura S, chassis #4077) owned by one, as did Rod Stewart (1972 Miura SVchasis #4818), so imagine Stakatis accepts this gift in a heartbeat.
But this Miura P400S (chassis #3829) was not any model Miura S, he received some special options rarely seen on the series S and had installed several custom items... could say this is truly one of a kind of 1969 S. Muira For the air conditioning... that makes perfect sense for a car registered in Greece, as it tends to heat up there, but this Bull also came with a very sumptuous brown leather upholstery, warm... and window Note that first Miura came with a vinyl interior, not leather, many even had cloth seats.
Posted to a totally new upholstery not this Miura could even, take a look at the stitching on the dashboard, which is not original factory... then Onassis received from him, it wouldn't be the first time that it happens to a Lamborghini... Frank Sinatra of Miura had hidden reality of wild boar. And if we look closer to the interior of this brown leather Miura are only the first custom work may notice.
You have a look at the three vent holes in air conditioning... they are units of alloy engraving, not regular fins black plastic that we see in later models of Miura SV, even the plate and control buttons are made from alloy... and received engraved too intricate. Just like the shifter and center console passenger handle... the lever of the hand brake and the surrounding in the controls window... even the cigarette lighter has been customized.
If you want to customize an interior... in any car, the first thing that you do most of the time is to change the steering wheel... so this already unique Miura has a leather steering wheel black impressive with a crest of Raging Bull recorded surrounded by leaves, while a S stylish lies below the crest... probably means Stamatis I guess.
On the outside that this classic Raging Bull has been customized too, brand around the headlights tabs are made of alloy in this car, while a new grille was mounted at the front and four additional light bulbs found a place under the front bumper... I am sure that it was a very impressive show to see this Miura coming down the road in the 1970s.
STAMATIS, being the pilot of rally was, drove this Miura S as fast has he could, covered more than 50,000 miles... until he found some serious problems in the engine in 1972... the car was taken to a specialist who advised Stamatis engine repaired by people who really built it in the first place... Lamborghini in Sant'Agata.
Massive V12 was removed from the car and sent to Italy, meanwhile the shell was stationed at the Athens Hilton Hotel... and Stamatis forgot everything and left it in the same underground parking for 30 odd years... until 2003 when the hotel underwent renovations and the car was moved to a different location... even without motor.
Fast forward to December 2012... car was recovered after being neglected at the age of forty, abroad that looks quite sad to be honest, is clipped the front, scraping the wheel arches, there is a dent on the door, painting is totally ruined and one taillight is cracked... but inside seems quite surprising for his age, and what really makes this interesting Miura S now is the fact that the engine is finally back.
In fact the motor has been completely restored... and I used as an element of exhibition at the Museum of the factory until now... today this 1969 Miura S is a coincidence of numbers Raging Bull with an interior and an engine from a time capsule... pity the outside is let it... a little.
Still was auctioned on December 4. 2012 in Coys in United Kingdom... valued up to nearly $600,000 that the final bid rose to $483.210... but it was not enough to reach the reserve in one of a kind Lamborghini, so it remained unsold.
Will Kokotas it sell new in the future? We don't know, but what we do know is that whoever has the nerves... and funds, to carry this Miura very special back to showroom condition ends with one of the most outstanding in the history of Lamborghini... the Miura is already a legend, a Miura custom property of Aristotle Onassis (initially bought it)... and to quote Onassis himself: "After a certain point, the money is meaningless. Let be the goal. The game is what counts."

Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster 2013

Inconceivable, how sophisticated this 2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 RoadsterRight at first glance, it’s noticeable that the engine hood on the Roadster differs from the hood on the coupé because of its central “spinal column” with two pairs of hexagonal windows connected at the sides as if they were hyper-tech armor plates. Their purpose is to cool the engine, drain off rain water properly and, of course, allow the beauty of the V12 power unit to be admired.



The driver of the Aventador Roadster and his passenger can decide for themselves how intensely they would like to enjoy the driving experience. The powered rear windshield not only influences the flow of air in the vehicle, but also controls the experience of the sound from the twelve-cylinder engine. The wind deflector, on the other hand, delivers almost complete calm inside the car, even at high speed. It rests on the front windshield frame and can likewise be stored in the luggage compartment when not in use.



The body of the new Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster sports a two-tone finish, as the windshield pillar, the two roof sections and the rear window area up to the “fins” are painted in gloss black. The visual effect is that of a completely open vehicle with sleek lines combining perfectly balanced sportiness and elegance.
The new Aventador LP700-4 Roadster boasts record performance. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in only 3 seconds flat and has a maximum speed of some 350 km/h.
These numbers, combined with a drive train featuring a centrally located, 6.5 liter aspirated V12 generating 700 hp, an ISR 7-speed gearbox and push-rod suspension make the new Aventador Roadster a unique super sports car with no direct competition.
2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster price at 300,000 euro, excluding taxes.
Nice car!
