We never bothered with any Autofiends Car of the Year stuff, but if we had the shocking and awesome v10-motored LP560-4 would have been the pick. Probably followed by the RX-8 R3. But really, we love that damn Lambo. In fact, that’s a picture of me driving one — ha ha! Now, we need no more [...]

Disclaimer: Autoblog Damon is a good friend of mine. That said, el grande bastardo!  Why? He got to drive a fleet — literally, a fleet  – of supercars around an abandoned air strip in Florida, in an attempt to crack the double ton (200 mph). The cars? An Audi R8 (odd, since it can only [...]

After being mesmerized by the Viking boat headlights in the Volvo S60 Concept, I started looking around the floor of the Detroit Auto Show paying extra attention to the lights on various production cars. With all the new LED and HID technology available for designers to mess around with, perhaps the headlamp is becoming the [...]

Economic meltdown? What meltdown? Lamborghini has just announced it intends to crank out one new product every year for the foreseeable future. The decision keeps up with the company’s trend for the past two years. Last year the world got its first taste of the Gallardo LP560-4, and in 2008 Lamborghini unveiled a Spyder version [...]

The Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 is no slouch, but some would argue that it’s too tame. So for those folks who’d prefer more hardcore Gallardo, rumor has it that Lamborghini is planning a stripped-down version to be called the Gallardo LP560-2 Superleggera. Unlike the previous Superleggera, which was about 150 lbs lighter than the standard model, [...]

You may have noticed a glaring absence from our constant coverage of the auto world recently. While everyone else on the Web and beyond jumped all over Ward’s top ten best engines of 2009, we did not. Why? They got it wrong. Sure, every year the list comes out and we mumble about what engine [...]

Here it is Fiends: the quickest R8 so far. This ten-pot bruiser is powered by the same mill Lieberman went gaga over in the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4. That means we’re looking at 5.2-liters with 528 horsepower and 398 torques, which should be good enough to vault the R8 to 60 in just 3.9 seconds. Those [...]

Lamborghini has unleashed the newest promo for its Gallardo LP560-4. As if this car needs advertising. The short flick follows the car as prowls through New York City, set to the haunting tune of the theme from Requiem for a Dream. You don’t get the sound of the 552 horsepower 5.2-liter V10 as it bounces [...]

Is everything hotter in Italy, or what? Lamborghini just donated a Gallardo LP560-4 to the Italian State Police to replace the 2004 Gallardo currently in service. The car comes with all the gear The Man needs to keep the populace in check, including a radar gun, a camera that transmits back to headquarters, police radio [...]

Lieberman: All too often reviews of supercars are little more than a numbers game. Engine capacity (5.2-liters)? Cylinders (10)? Horsepower (552)? Weight (3,307 pounds)? Weight distribution (42/58 front/rear)? Torque (398 lb-ft)? Zero to sixty (3.6 seconds though some say 3.4)? Quarter-mile (11.4 seconds at 126.9 mph)? Top Speed (202 mph)? Standing Mile? 0-100? MPG (about [...]
