IMSA press release :
New Super Sports Car IMSA GTV based on the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4The new Gallardo LP 560 has only just seen the light of the world automobile stage. The result is one of the mostexclusive cars of our time; one that presents a perfect symbiosis between extravagant design and drivingperformance and capability at sports car level. For the Gallardo LP 560-4 the German Lamborghinispecialists have once more taken the speedy Italian car and created a masterpiece on wheels in accordancewith the IMSA company philosophy. For the Gallardo LP 560-4 the IMSA engineers had to take thespecial chassis from the GTV’s well known predecessor and completely reconstruct it.
Thus the chassis modificationsnow include a front skirt, widened wheel housing for front and rear, sideskirts, a rear skirt as well as special rear spoilerthat ensures greater output. All the parts are made of high quality carbon fibre which normally can only be found inprofessional motor sports or in air travel and which despite its low weight has a convincing stability. Because of itssuperb technical specifications the IMSA GTV is capable of combing sportiness with an exclusive appearance at thehighest level. The same can, of course, also be said for the already internationally established lightweight central lockingwheel, 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 exclusivewheel 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 withits height adjustable IMSA sports suspension. The highly polished IMSA stainless steel sports exhaust system cannaturally not be left out of this Gourmet menu. The optical delicacy on the rear of the LP 560 spoils the driver with areally 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 devotedthemselves with their usual perfection to the interior of the vehicle. So the first things to strike the eye when opening thepassenger door are the exclusive IMSA bucket seats made of carbon, which fit the driver and co-driver like a sitting tailoredsuit. As the IMSA team traditionally consider the use of high quality materials for its newest super sports car creation to bevery important, carbon is naturally used all over for elements in the cockpit. The complete multi-element IMSA carbon interioris very convincing. The whole IMSA GTV including the IMSA sports driving wheel is finished off with IMSA leather and/orAlcantara interior in GTV design.All in all this is a very tasty high-class menu, that will make several Gallardo owners’ mouths water.
