German tuner Hamann is at it again. This time they’re taken the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 and turned it into what they like to call a “Stealth Bomber on four wheels.”

The kit includes a new double-pipe stainless sports rear silencer and a high-flow catalytic converter. Aesthetically, the modified Murci sports a new front and rear spoiler in either fiberglass or carbon-Kevlar, and also includes a two-part rear diffuser with additional air hoses for the side air intakes, and new side skirts. Hamann also throws in a set of 20-inch alloy wheels… Continue Reading…

Hamann Ferrari F430 Spider

Just after writing about Hamann’s most recent addition to the Ferrari line (with the Black Miracle,) they release a close to identical modification to the F430 Spider, except without the matte black and florescent orange finish. This one is much more attractive with the carbon-kevlar or fiberglass aerodynamic accents, about which Hamann claims “This makes the Hamann Ferrari F430 definitely a powerful road-racing car, which causes a sensation!” Loosely translated, of course.

Hamann Ferrari F430 Black Miracle

I’m normally a huge fan of what Hamann does to the Ferraris it modifies, but the latest F430 Black Miracle just doesn’t get me too excited. Maybe it’s just the paint job, because I could never complain about a 50 horsepower increase from an upgraded CPU, performance headers, and a free flow catalyst and rear silencer exhaust system. I’m also a fan of the gull-wing doors, aerodynamic improvements and lightweight 20″ wheels, but the paint job (which is offered in red, yellow and orange) just makes it look like a toy.

Holy crap, this is hot. Check out what Hamann did to the doors on this Gallardo Spider:

The Gallardo, being the “Baby Brother” Lamborghini, has been lacking in the “bad-ass” factor the other Lambo’s have. Read on…

The great German tuner Hamann is at it again, this time with the Murcielago roadster. Generally, I fancy the standard Murci over the roadster, but Hamann really did a great number on it. Just take a look:

First to be added to the list of upgrades is the modified front spoiler fitted to the stock spoiler, and a rear spoiler, both in either fiberglass or carbon-kevlar. I’m not a fan of aftermarket spoilers generally either, but again, this looks great. Coming around to the sides you will notice composite, forged wheels with a cross-spoke design called “Edition Race.� Front tires are 8.5 inches wide and the back 13; both are 20� in diameter. Stepping into the interior, the modifications include a beautiful eight-piece carbon fiber trim kit; a must have. Under the hood they left the 6.5L V12 alone, figuring the engine form the LP640 was enough, but they did add a rear sports muffler, about 4.7 inches in diameter.

Visually, it’s not a huge upgrade, but it does look good. I would have expected more performance-wise, but what can you do? Naturally, anyone spending this much cash on a car can have it customized to their hearts content, including a plethora of leather colors and multimedia combinations.
