BF-performance has developed a new tuning package for the Gallardo LP560-4, both coupe and spyder versions. Called GT600, the tuning kit adds a stronger performance.
New body parts are made entirely of carbon fiber, and include new side skirts, rear diffuser, and a rear wing. A set of wing doors is also a part of the package.
The aerodynamic kit is completely made in carbon fiber and includes: air inlets, a new front spoiler, side skirts, a rear diffuser and a rear wing.
BF Performance claims that they have tuned the engine of the Gallardo, though they provide no specifications. They do say that, between the mods and the 43 kg reduced weight, their GT600 has better acceleration than the LP640-4 SV. Carbon-ceramic brakes were used to better control speed.
Inside, the company installed five-point belts and sport seats. Carbon was used on the handles, vents, switch casings, and steering wheel to further reduce weight. A rollover cage was also fitted to better protect passengers.

Press Release
- Entirely new aerodynamics kit made of carbon
- Wing doors for the special appearance
- If desired the Gallardo can be equipped with rear-wheel drive
- Engineer design with carbon in optional colour
In the Swiss city Zug, perfection has a different meaning than in the
Italian town Sant’Agata Bolognese. While Lamborghini is satisfied with the
Gallardo LP560-4, the Swiss have higher demands – at least the engineers at
BF-performance. For them, the Gallardo is too innocent and neither dynamic
nor individual enough. Therefore, they turn both the Coupé and also the
Spyder into the GT600 which has a stronger performance, more self-confidence
and looks more aggressive.
Optimised under-body aerodynamics is guaranteed by the side skirts and
the rear diffuser which are both also made of carbon. The striking carbon
rear wing renders additional down thrust. Its edged design perfects the
design language of the Lamborghini and gives the Gallardo the finishing
touch.
The wing doors render a significant amount of individuality, but are
strictly limited to Lamborghini models with twelve-cylinder engines. Due to
the refinement by BF-performance, also the GT600 with a V10 engine can be
equipped with doors which are so typical for Lamborghini.
And of course the engineers also focused on the engine performance.
BF-performance has confirmed the performance of the new automobile in an
impressive race. On the Sachsenring round course, the GT600 even managed to
beat the stronger Lamborghini Murciélago LP640-4 SV by an impressive lead of
0.6 seconds
For the special individualisation, BF-performance offers a unique
amendment: it can be modified from a four-wheel drive car to a rear-drive
super car. This way, the GT600 combines the exclusive feature of the
Gallardo LP550-2 “Valentino Balboni“ with increased performance. The new
engine concept and 43 kilogramme of saved weight render a unique driving
experience.
The interior also follows this dynamic maxim. Apart from the sports bucket
seats, BF-performance also offers five-point belts, a roll-over cage and a
carbon-ceramic braking system with which the GT600 meets the highest racing
standards. BF-performance visually adjusts the interior to the increased
dynamics. The manufactory uses carbon on the steering wheel, door handles,
ventilation grids and even at the switch casings. The customer can even opt
for carbon in his favourite colour.
BF-performance offers the entire car with all components either as the
sporty Coupé GT600 or also as the Roadster GT600 Spyder.
The entire automobile confirms the perfection and passion for detail applied
by BF-performance. The Lamborghini specialist has already gained experience
with the predecessor model and now brings its art of engineering into
perfection with the GT 600. Also Lamborghini’s design development confirms
the talents of BF-performance, as the Swiss specialist is always one step
ahead of the Italian manufacturer.
