2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante

Lamborghini’s lightweight engineering approach produces a lighter version of the Gallardo LP 560-4 Spyder and with much power: the 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante.

Spyder Performante is an open-top, two-seater sports car weighing only 3274 lbs but with a 570hp at 8 000 revs per minute with a top speed of 201mph.

The Lamborghini endeavor to lose the extra weight without sacrificing quality, and as such, electric windows and air-conditioning unit comes as customary in the Spyder Performante. The weight reduction is thanks to CFRP technology; components of the car’s interior and exterior are made with carbon-composite material called carbon-fiber. All in all, you have 40% of the total weight reduced by the use of carbon-filter components.

Carbon-fiber is ideal for sports car not only because of its light weight but also because it improves technical characteristics. With the weight being reduced the car’s performance is optimized while CO2 emission is lessened.

2011 Romeo Ferraris Chevrolet Corvette Z06

For 50 years, Romeo Ferraris has established itself as a tuning specialist of both street cars and competition cars. Now Ferraris takes its tuning specialty to upgrade the Corvette Z06 and take it to newer heights.

With 510 bhp and more than 300 kph, Z06 is General Motors powerful Corvette until 2009. Then ZR1 stole the limelight from Z06 with its eight-cylinder LS9 engine and volumetric supercharger producing 640 bhp. But the Z06 can gain back its supremacy with Romeo Ferrari’s tuning program.

In less than 10 seconds, the upgraded Z06 powered with 670 bhp, can dash a 200 kph and reach over 340 kph.

To distinguish the Z06-RF, Romeo Ferraris gave it a new look but not by changing its structure since its aerodynamics is already superb; Ferraris rather focused on the body’s painting. A special carbon film is wrapped in the Z06-RF, which protects it from atmospheric agents while giving it a more aggressive appearance.
