Italian Police Upgrade To Lamborghini Gallardos

October 27, 2008 | Posted by Allison as Wheels at 8:00 am | (2) Comments »

Here in the States we’ve seen the random Mustang police car or some flashy Camaro wheeling through town with their blaring lights, but the polizia have us beat hands-down.

Some police stations in Italy have upgraded their cars to actual Lamborghini.  Jaw-drop, eh?  And a Gallardo Lamborghini at that.

Decked out with the usual police decals but featuring a gun rack, cooler, video equiptment and radio, this polizia car is the next step in police enforcement.  Now, how do I go about snatching one….?

Even during an economic crisis verging on recession, the luxury market is still surviving with ease.

The newest & sexiest model of the well-loved Aston Martin has sold out even before publicly revealed.  The One-77 Aston Martin is reported to feature a 7.0 litre V12 engine, a carbon fiber chassis and an aluminum body to boot. 

The luxury automobile was privately revealed back at the Paris Motor Show and is now completely sold out, having filled its 100 spots.  The One-77 should be delivered to their excited owners next fall.  Wow, I could never wait that long!

You no longer have to deal with the smaller firms like Pininfarina or Carrozzeria Touring when it comes to customizing luxury cars.  Why, you ask?

Well, Ferrari is now in the custom business & ready to serve you up some hot powertrains, honey.  While there are some limitations, such as no SUVs or sedans, Ferrari is pretty much stepping up to the luxury plate in order to assist you in your personal customization.  Choose your own powertrain, chassis, wherever your taste leads you.

The new BMW concept car is a shape-shifter?  Hrmmm, this bears looking into.  The new BMW GINA Light Visionary Model car is created using a flexible fabric that is rather stretched over a manipuable metal frame.  So you can basically change the actual shape of your car based on what features you activate.  More of like a classy Thing.

This is currently no word on if this beautiful machine will actually go into production, but my vote is a definite yes!

With the increase of gas & the decrease in automotive spending, I think we’ll be seeing more of these small car companies popping up, such as the new car company, Ronn Motor.

Ronn Motor Company is truly on top of their game with this new hybrid sportscar, the Scorpion.  The main thing to be wowed by in this vehicle is the news that it can go from 0 to 60mph in 3.5 seconds and gets around 40mpg.  Now, if we can plug it in at night, that would be a real dream come true, eh?

The Scorpion is being produced in Texas & should be available for purchase come fall.

Testing is already underway for the RR4 car & we can see that this new model of Rolls Royce is maintaining the long hood with high beltline.  So, what do you think of the new vehicle?

Batman has everything:  the ability to fly, get the girls & drive the cars.  Not only does Batman get to ride around in his oh-so-cool Batmobile, but in the upcoming Dark Knight movie, he also gets to have some fun behind the wheel of this 640hp Lamborghini Murcielago LP640.  Talk about having everything… what would you get Batman for his birthday anyway?

Being very pleased with Batman’s choice of alter-vehcile, Lamborghini released a statement saying, “The Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 is the natural choice for Bruce Wayne’s other car.”

Well, duh!
