New Lamborghini Gallardo released, the LP570-4 Blancpain Edition

The New Blancpain Edition of the Lambo is out in the market. For those who are wondering what is Blancpain. It’s known for its wrist watches and these are top of the class, posh watches and the expensive ones.

Blancpain is also one of the key sponsors of Lamborghini in most of its races like the Super Trofeo race series.

And most of you will not be surprised to know this car will also be loaded with carbon fiber components to make it lighter and quick, which will include a huge rear spoiler.
Other things which are known to be a part of this special edition which makes it different from the Superleggera are new engine cover (for ventilation), diffuser, new mirror casings, carbon-ceramic brake discs and calipers, and ‘Skorpius’ wheels.

And the Blancpain logo will be prominent in the cabin, while the interiors are stitched with yellow and the upholstery is black leather.

Lamborghini claims with all the carbon fiber on board the car is much lighter, 0-62mph in just 3.4 seconds and a top speed of over 200mph.

And the weight is 1340 kg only, some hatchbacks in the market are heavier than LP570-4 Blancpain!

Thanks Blancpain!

Porsche brings an all new Speedster in 2011

Porsche one of the much respected brands in the market plans to relaunch the speedster. It is a way to respect the celebrated 356 Speedster which faded away with time; the company only produced 356 units of the old speedster and will present a new speedster by 2011.

Speedster will inherit a lot of features from the Porsche 911 GTS. The car will be on display in the Paris Motor Show 2010. A lot of interior styling is done as it was done long back in the old speedster. Some similarities are easily noticeable, shortened windscreen and sleek tail, and comes with a 60mm lowered and raked windscreen and the characteristic ‘double-bubble’ hardcover for the manual soft top.

It is loaded with a 3.8 liter engine which will deliver an approximate power of 408 horses which is surprisingly 23 hp more than the 911 Carrera.

The one shown in the pictures is exactly what will be available in 2011.
And the one in the pictures is a bright blue and the color is extended to the interiors.

Talking about the price, it will cost £144,100 and is a limited edition.
