New Super Sports Car IMSA GTV based on the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4
The new Gallardo LP 560 has only just seen the light of the world automobile stage. The result is one of the most exclusive cars of our time; one that presents a perfect symbiosis between extravagant design and driving performance and capability at sports car level. For the Gallardo LP 560-4 the German Lamborghini specialists have once more taken the speedy Italian car and created a masterpiece on wheels in accordance with the IMSA company philosophy.
For the Gallardo LP 560-4 the IMSA engineers had to take the special chassis from the GTV's well known predecessor and completely reconstruct it. Thus the chassis modifications now include a front skirt, widened wheel housing for front and rear, sideskirts, a rear skirt as well as special rear spoiler that ensures greater output. All the parts are made of high quality carbon fibre which normally can only be found in professional motor sports or in air travel and which despite its low weight has a convincing stability. Because of its superb technical specifications the IMSA GTV is capable of combing sportiness with an exclusive appearance at the highest level. The same can, of course, also be said for the already internationally established lightweight central locking wheel, IMSA Challenge, which is mounted on the front axle with dimensions of 9J x 20 (with 245/30 ZR20 sized tyres) and on the rear axle with dimensions of 12,5J x 20 (with 325/25 ZR20 sized tyres). The IMSA exclusive wheel is not only visually an eye-opener but it also convinces the ambitious driver with its technical characteristics - especially when combined with the very complex traction and compression phase as well as with its height adjustable IMSA sports suspension. The highly polished IMSA stainless steel sports exhaust system can naturally not be left out of this Gourmet menu. The optical delicacy on the rear of the LP 560 spoils the driver with a really deafening V10 symphony and increases its performance to a sensational 590 PS at 9000U/min thanks to the perfected exhaust gas routing and the connected back pressure reduction.
The maximum torque is increased to 560 Nm at 6000 U/min.
As the IMSA GTV is a complete vehicle concept based on the Gallardo LP560-6 the IMSA specialists have also devoted themselves with their usual perfection to the interior of the vehicle. So the first things to strike the eye when opening the passenger door are the exclusive IMSA bucket seats made of carbon, which fit the driver and co-driver like a sitting tailored suit. As the IMSA team traditionally consider the use of high quality materials for its newest super sports car creation to be very important, carbon is naturally used all over for elements in the cockpit. The complete multi-element IMSA carbon interior is very convincing. The whole IMSA GTV including the IMSA sports driving wheel is finished off with IMSA leather and/or Alcantara interior in GTV design.

Behold...
"Germany-based tuners IMSA GmbH have released their package of upgrades for the Gallardo LP 560-4 following an initial preview back in February. The IMSA GTV kit was created from scratch, and comes with several carbon-fiber body panels.
[/I] A height-adjustable sports chassis was also used, with the mods capped by the polished stainless steel exhaust pipes. The new exhaust led to a 5% power increase to 590PS and up to 560 Nm of torque, nearly a 4% increase.
Included in the modifications are front and rear aprons, front and rear fender flares, side skirts, and a new rear wing. The company decided to use the same central-locking wheels found on carsin the IMSA Challenge. Lightweight 9Jx20 with 245/30 ZR20 tires, and 12.5Jx20 with 325/25ZR20 dimension tires are found in the front and back. Carbon fiber bucket seats were also thrown into the package, as well as other composite interior parts. Leather and Alcantara rounds out the order."

I love that they say its " based " on the LP560. It is the 560 with a set of wheels, mild drop, mild mods , and new stitching on the seat. I think more Lamborghini owners will do this right out of the dealership than IMSA thinks or knows
