Anderson Germany tweaks Lamborghini Gallardo Balboni Edition

We have to wonder if we were given an expanse of resources and all the time in the world, if we could actually improve on the driving dynamics of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni. The car was tailored specifically to the tastes of a man who knows more than a little about what the perfect driving car should feel like, so it would seem somewhat arrogant to assume to be able to improve on the recipe. Fortunately, the aftermarket world packs the kind of confidence we can only feign, and Anderson Germany has taken up the challenge of making Balboni's ride even more lethal.

The company has added a few aesthetic additions to the car, including a set of hefty three-piece, 20-inch wheels and smoked tail lights. Meanwhile, Anderson Germany's wrenches have managed to bleed an extra 40 horsepower out of the car – bumping the final figure up to 590 ponies. Otherwise, the only changes are a few interior updates. We guess it's best not to mess with perfection. Hit the jump for the press release.

590 HP with RWD. Sounds like it will be a handful on corner exit. I wouldnt put 20's on a gallardo. The designers and engineers at Lambo went through a lot of trouble to reach the perfect balance . Theres no way I would increase unsprung weight on a car like that.

I have been on 6speed online and I have read putting on wider and bigger wheels on a Gallardo plays serious havoc with the sensors, brakes and AWD drive systems( on other Gallardos),so doing this kind of mod is a really bad idea.
