Click image for a hi-res gallery of the Lamborghini LP560-4 
We just detailed the changes made to the Lamborghini Gallardo as it evolves into the spectacular LP560-4. And while the name might not be exciting, the car sure is. New front and rear fascias,
as detailed here, give the "baby" Lambo a menacing new look that's backed up by an upgraded 5.2L V10 that reportedly dishes out 560 PS/ 552 HP while tipping the scales at 44 lbs. less than the Gallardo. That's what fast is made of.
UPDATE: For those of you who want to compare the LP560-4 to the the pre-facelift bodystyle, here's a
gallery of the current
Gallardo Superleggera.

HOLY CRAP!
Not a big fan of Lambo's, but this, this is beautiful.
mark lee @ Mar 3rd 2008 11:28PM
Totally agree! This thing is sexy!
I think it's more attractive in every way, and the rear no longer looked like a sports car from the '80s.
Time to start working double shifts...
Jason @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:27PM
jesus that's hot
Torrent @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:29PM
Is it me, or are Lambos starting to look all the same?
Arcturus @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:34PM
My thoughts exactly.
amdforever @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:40PM
Yes, very beautiful... BUT
The back looks SOOOO much like an Audi R8 !!!!!!
Derek @ Mar 3rd 2008 5:44PM
Starting to??? I thought that was the Lambo design theme ever since the Countach...
jcar302 @ Mar 3rd 2008 5:41PM
That's exactly what i was thinking before i read all the responses.
Don't get me wrong, i like how lambo's look, it just seems like it's all the same car with a slightly different name, and different hp rating.

Now that you mentioned it, the rear does look like R8!
Mbuku Kanyau Mbithuka @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:43PM
Same old same old.. Nothing doing, Its just another Lambo
i.c. weiner @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:46PM
so, what else is new?
John @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:51PM
I like the back. Sad thing the majority of Americans can't appreciate design like this since it isn't a Lambo pickup truck or SUV. lol
John R @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:53PM
I concur with those saying that this is more or less the same from Lambo, but this IS a little more bad ass. Especially from the back.
If I paid a cool mil a Reventon, I'd be kinda mad, this looks better.
Looks great, but not really doing all that much for me.
Andrew Tanasescu @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:59PM
This doesn't come with those SWEET reventon gauges though.
MikeW @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:54PM
Audi is taking over Lambo.
Andrew Tanasescu @ Mar 3rd 2008 4:57PM
Im so surprised from the comments from here. the past 3 comments were along the lines of it just being another ole lambo. Arent automakers supposed to have a key look. Take a look at Ferrari. At the sight of the front, I might have a bit of trouble instantly deciding if a car was either a 612 or 599. Im a big porsche fan and can easily tell them apart, but most everyday people cant tell them apart. Personally, I think this a great new look for Lambo. It looks refreshing from the old Gallardo, and I love the essence of the reventon that you can see. This car is an Ace in my book.

Very boring facelift. It makes the Audi R8 look good.
And those rims! People thought Ferrari's were bad!
John @ Mar 3rd 2008 5:26PM
LOL, Just stfu. The Audi R8 does look good. However being that your name is "Ford GT" I would expect you to have horrendous taste when it comes to the aesthetics of cars. The Ford GT is a decent looking car, mostly due to it's "classic" design scheme but it doesn't hold a torch to any Lambo or even this one looks wise. Don't even get me started on the Ford GT's rear. Typical American Ford Fanboy who lacks taste aren't you. (oh btw I am American)
almost Dr. G.. @ Mar 3rd 2008 7:33PM
damn john! that was harsh! but i agree. its beautiful and the ford gt is off the market. i wonder why.
vdk @ Mar 4th 2008 12:03AM
dude... those rims are bad... they really have to go... gimme some angles lambo...
