Following the tuned Murciélago LP 640, edo competition presents its second Lamborghini project with the Gallardo Superleggera.

Through high flow breathing components such as a massive air box and newly designed high flow catalytic converters plus a recalibrated engine control unit, the Gallardo SLE produces 30hp (22 kW) more to 560 hp (411 kW) at 8,250 rpm. Top speed is bumped up to about 6 km/h (4 mph) to 320 km/h (199 mph) and 0 – 100 km/h (62 mph) arrives in 3.7 seconds and 0 – 200 km/h (124 mph) in 11.7 seconds.

Also, 19-inch three piece racing wheels shod in stock-sized or 245/35 ZR 19 (F) 305/30 ZR 19 (R) Dunlop Sport Maxx tires plus 15mm lowered suspensions and smoked side turn signals round out the package, except for one last detail.

The exhaust system's sound volume can be adjusted at the press of a button via remote control. Check out the video above for demonstration.

Remember this IS the Superleggera. Means lighter. But then the LP560-4 has the same HP number. Hmmm.

Hey I think I agree with you- Llamas are definitely way cooler than camels... Man why don't they test those on Top Gear?!?

Lol anyway yeah Superleggera is Italian for super light, but the thing is- the LP560-4 looks a bit better (and less like a normal Gallardo)

sounds like an aston. but....ahh, i don't know. the new lp 560, it's a mini reventon. it looks so cool, and yes it has the same amonut of bhp. my logic tells me "buy the new lp 560"... but if i had pockets as big as my heart i would have them both.

Just a great car. Beautiful. I have a Gallardo spyder and thats probably nothing compared to the sound of the superleggera. Still is and always will be a great, quick and beautiful car.
