Lamborghini has given one more facelift before the all-new replacement arrives. Lamborghini presents the new Gallardo LP 560-4 and the LP 570-4 Edizione Tecnica at the Paris Motor Show.

 

The new Gallardo LP 560-4 has a cosmetic upgrade while the Superleggera and the Spyder Performante, will be now renamed and offered as the Edizione Tecnica. The refreshed Gallardo models will be available at Lamborghini dealerships starting November 2012, while the rear wheel driven LP 550-2 'Valentino Balboni' Coupe and Spyder remain.

The new Gallardo LP 560-4 looks broader and more dominating, courtesy of a mathematical friendly triangle and trapezoid design language.

Larger air intakes have been created ahead of the front wheels and the new 19-inch 'Apollo polished' alloy wheels, painted in matt black and featuring precision-machined spokes in polished silver. The air outlet for the powertrain in the rear has a wider surface area, to improve thermodynamic efficiency.

  • Tennis: Beautiful game that doesn't know how to count

    Wimbledon just concluded yesterday (congrats Sinner!), and it's a reminder of how much I enjoy tennis as a sport. I used to play it some (wasn't particularly good), and still tangentially follow it nowadays (the Roland Garros final this year between Alcaraz and Sinner is an all-time classic).  There's something intrinsically mesmerising about the sport, I think even for spectators who have never picked up a racquet. At first glance, it may seem like just two people (or four, but doubles is

In the words of a well-spoken colleague, this is "where YOLO meets FOMO in an epic battle for your precious holiday time".

    Are forums outdated? I try to find out by asking AI

    Is your boss asking you to explore and learn how to use AI to improve the quality and efficiency of your work? Yup, you aren't the only one in that boat.  Whilst exploring new AI tools, I figured: Why not use it to answer some burning questions that I have? This time, it was about whether forums are outdated. Yes, forums like this one that we are on. I remember how before social media became popular, and before apps like Carousell existed, forums were where I chatted with others t

    How are we already in June?

    During lunch with my mother a couple of weeks back over yong tau foo, I was asked about my opinion on the latest NDP song. And of course, as expected of any chronically insular millennial, my reaction was: “Huh? There’s a new NDP song?” But of course there is. And I say this not to disparage the wonderful songwriters and musicians that provide an anthem to remember the nation’s birthday by annually, but to knock into my own mind the harsh reality: We’re already in mid-June.  It fe
