Hamann Turns Lamborghini Gallardo into Victory II
On the styling side, Hamann's designers developed a new body kit with front and rear fender extensions, matching side skirts, a roof scoop channelling air to the engine compartment, a front apron and a rear apron housing a new diffuser and exhaust tail pipes. There's also an available rear wing made of fibre glass or carbon fiber, while the bonnet can also receive the carbon fiber treatment.
The Lamborghini Victory II's exterior is finished in a matte black colour with contrasting dark red detailing. The finishing touch is a new set of 20 inch Edition Race rims with a special varnish, shod in 235/30ZR20 tyres at the front and 325/25ZR20 tyres at the back.
The interior of the Gallardo is enhanced by a 14-part carbon fiber trim set in a red finish covering most parts of the cabin, along with new sport bucket seats featuring a carbon fiber back, and unique floor mats.
In the performance division, by tweaking the V10 engine's electronics, Hamann's engineers managed to pull out another 20 ponies lifting total output to 580HP with a maximum torque of 575Nm. According to the tuner, the Gallardo Victory II can reach a top speed of 328 km/h or 204 mph.
For pricing, you'll have to contact Hamann directly as the tuner did not release any information on the matter.

Hamann’s Tuning Program for BMW 5-Series Models fitted with M Sports Package
Buyers looking to tune their cars these days can choose between factory packages and aftermarket kits, and usually it's one or the other. But that's not the case with Hamann Motorsports, which is extending its offerings for the latest generation 5-Series to include an individualization program for those that have opted for BMW's recently launched M Sports Package (see here).
The German tuner's program includes a set of aerodynamic components that are adapted to the original M Technik front and rear aprons, along with a boot lid and roof spoiler, and bespoke side skirts.
Even though BMW's M package already includes 18-inch or 19-inch alloys, Hamann will more than gladly replace them with its own set of 21-inch wheels wrapped around 255/30 ZR21 tires at the front and 295/25 ZR21 at the back, at a price of €4,760 or close to US$6,500.
A suspension kit that drops the ride height by another 35mm, a four tailpipe sports exhaust system and a number of interior upgrades such as a 10 piece carbon fiber trim set, aluminum pedals and a unique steering wheel complete Hamann Motorsport's offerings.

Hamann presentes Insane Fiat 500 Largo with 265HP at 2009
Hamann has yet to disclose performance figures, but we reckon that 265 ponies in a car the size and weight of the Fiat 500 should a spectacle worth seeing - don't know about driving though...
A sport exhaust system that includes an end muffler with four pipes, a pre-muffler with a metal catalyser and a sport manifold along with a high-performance brake system with internally ventilated brake discs and 4-piston callipers up front and optional 257mm discs at the rear, as well as a sport suspension that lowers the car's centre of gravity by up to 60 mm complete the list of performance mods.
The Largo rides on 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped in high-performance sport tires measuring 215/35 ZR18 or optionally, 225/35 ZR18.
As for the interior, changes include but are not limited to, an aluminium pedal set, a door mat set and embroidered logos. Pricing and more details are to be announced at a later date.
