    In the article.
    -said to be powered by a 5.2-liter V10 with 550-horsepower. This Gallardo had a different front bumper, smaller headlights, double dual exhaust, and the rear ventilation grille was one single piece instead of three portions... This leads me to believe that this is the new Gallardo LP550...."

    The wheels are a mix and match affair.

    Looks pretty good. I'm just going to assume this is the Gallardo going through the "LP640" transition.

    It is interesting to see Reiter's name on it, though.

    It will be called the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560/4, not LP550 as previously thought.

    -560 BHP
    -0-100 kmh 3.7 seconds
    -new Launch control system
    -new high reving 5.2L FSI with much lower CO2 emission than any current Ferrari engine.
    -latest suspension technology modified from Audi R8
    -latest braking technology modified from R8
    -new e-gear shifts as fast as F1 Superfast in Scuderia
    -front, side and thorax airbags. Scud features only two airbags.
    -said by Lamborghini to lap the 'ring 12 secs faster than the Superleggera (we'll have to wait to see if this is true)

    That looks great! I love the updated lights and rear panels. Much more cohesive and unified than the 430 rear end.

    Probably due to being a decent shape for aero. & wind flow.

    Loving the Reventon-influenced parts as well.
