2011 Lamborghini Gallardo

 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo

The destinies of this unique model will be the European market, in addition to the countries within the Asia-Pacific region, while in America enjoy a simpler version, the rear-drive LP 550-2. The main identifying characteristic of the roof is Bicolore Gallardo-black in color specifically Nero Noctis, and the rest of the body painted in bright colors to choose from yellow, orange, gray, white or blue (Giallo Midas, Arancio Borealis, Grigio Telesto Caelum monocerus and Blu Bianco).

The technical characteristics of this model are the same as the standard Gallardo: Power 560cv, 325 km / h top speed and 3.7 seconds to complete the 0 to 100. Rounding out the set of cosmetic changes wheels 15 spoke forged titanium gray, the front spoiler and rear diffuser also painted black.

Inside the Lamborghini Gallardo Bicolore find both the dashboard and doors and seats upholstered in black leather Persian, with stitches in contrast with thread drawn from the same body color. Finally, include the e-gear changes, height-adjustable suspension to avoid hitting curbs in the city and the transparent engine cover that reveals the beauty of the 5.2 V10 engine.

In the seven years since our first Lamborghini Gallardo test, the factory has produced some 10,000 copies. Compared with, say, a Honda Accord—about 6000 sold last week—that number is paltry enough to qualify each Gallardo as special.

But in the world of handmade Italian baubles, 10,000 is a large number. So, to keep away ennui, the factory periodically releases even special-er editions. We’ve already tested a Gallardo Spyder, a Gallardo Superleggera, and a rear-drive Gallardo Balboni. Surely a Hurst Edition and an Indy pace-car replica are on the boards.

While we await those, check out two more catalog thickeners that will be around for model year 2011 only. The Gallardo LP550-2 Bicolore (say “bee-co-lor-ay”) is—you guessed it—a two-tone Lambo, base price of $196,995. It’s available in white, yellow, blue, gray, and orange, with a contrasting black roof and tail. That’s not the good part.

The good part is that the Bee-co-lor-ay is basically a continuation of the 250-copy rear-drive Balboni without the body stripe or Signor Balboni’s autograph on the interior. The Bicolore is also $28,800 cheaper, though only the paddle-shifted e-gear transmission gets fitted (Balbonis could be had with sticks). Also included are a transparent engine cover, a push-button nose jack to avoid those nasty driveway and speed-bump scrapes, and a leather-upgrade pack. If you missed out on the experience of jockeying 542 horsepower through a Gallardo’s rear wheels, the Bicolore awaits. And if a two-tone Lambo exceeds your flamboyance limit, a slightly subtler, one-color LP550-2 is also available in 2011 with a stick (for slightly less money than the Bicolore) or e-gear (for slightly more).
