Ayrton Senna Exhibition at the Lamborghini Museum

Yesterday, a new exhibition at the Lamborghini Museum in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy was inaugurated, showcasing the accomplishments of the racing legend, Ayrton Senna. Every F1 car Senna drove is now on display, including a special McLaren fitted with a Lamborghini engine from 1993. The exhibition will be on display from April 12th (yesterday) to October 9th.

Ayrton Senna is regarded as the greatest Formula One racing driver of all time, winning three championships in 1988, 1990, and 1991. His last race was on May 1st, 1994. While in the lead in the San Marino Grand Prix located at the Imola race track in Italy, Senna lost control of his vehicle and slammed into a wall, ultimately putting him to rest. Many changes to the Imola race track had been made over the years, due to claiming the lives of some of the worlds greatest race car drivers. With Automobili Lamborghini's racing heritage, it's heartwarming to see that CEO Stefano Domenicali cleared out the museum to celebrate the life of the worlds greatest F1 racer who ever lived.

Today, we'll walk you through a short description of the capabilities and specifications of this pre-owned Aventador roadster.

And since then, it's become one of the most popular cars in the world. And for good reason! Let's take a look.

Firstly, this vehicle is finished in one of the more rare colors Lamborghini offers called Grigio Telesto which gives off a very interesting presence. Combined with a Nero Ade interior and yellow contrast stitching to match the calipers, it's clear that the original owner had a theme in mind. However this isn't your entry level Lamborghini. The Aventador has a single clutch gearbox which means you must use the paddle shifters at all times.

From premium leather jackets, winter jackets, summer wear, and even shoes, Lamborghini has made it possible to be covered head to toe in your favorite brand!

Wether it's a hand bag, or a suitcase, Lamborghini has got you covered.

The Lamborghini Urus Production

Back in 2012, Lamborghini announced their new SUV model, the Lamborghini Urus. The vehicle was planned along with the plug in hybrid Lamborghini Asterion which was later then canceled. Announcements of a brand new factory specifically for the Urus surfaced just a couple of years later, and construction was backed by Audi. Lamborghini's newly appointed CEO, Stefano Domenicali recently announced that production for the Urus would start in April 2017.

The Lamborghini Urus was created to be the fastest SUV in the world, with a large 4.0 liter V8 engine that generates about 600 horsepower and can climb to a top speed of 205mph. Rumors surrounding the Urus speculate that the new V8 engine in the car will introduce hybrid technology brand new to the Lamborghini brand. New spy shots of the Urus have recently emerged from the internet of the camouflaged car on the road, and it seems that the car has taken on quite the change in design.

As more information for the Urus emerges, we will post more about it. In the meantime, if you are looking for a Lamborghini of your own, come visit our showroom at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515, or take a look on our website where you can find our entire inventory of brand new and pre-owned vehicles waiting for a new home.

Lamborghini Painting Process

Aside from the over the top crazy design of the Lamborghini brand, above all else, the brand is known for having the most beautiful and wide array of colors available for their cars. I would like to walk you through the process of painting these vehicles at the Lamborghini factory. Lamborghini is one of the very few luxury car manufacturers that still hand paints their cars because they believe that humans still have the edge over machines when it comes to painting techniques.

When a finished Lamborghini body enters the paint shop, it is first primed and sanded to ensure that the body is smooth and has no imperfections. One person is required to paint the outside of the vehicle, while another paints the inside. This is because not one person has a painting technique that's identical to another. Each color has its own name and usually two or three variations depending on what the customer requests. The color range has been extended thanks to the Ad Personam Program. The fully painted body takes many many hours to finish, and is then inspected once more for imperfections in the paint.

Perillo Lamborghini has plenty of these beautifully chromatic vehicles in our showroom at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515, and our website where you can search through our inventory of brand new and used Lamborghini's. Come in and take a test drive, or contact one of our Lamborghini specialists!

Lamborghini's Forged Carbon Fiber

The automotive industry as we know it has been utilizing incredible technology for the past 20 years. And one of the largest breakthroughs in lightweight composite materials is of course carbon fiber. This is perhaps the most interesting material in the world, because in it's natural state, it feels like fabric. But when exposed to high pressure and heat, the lightweight material becomes 5 times stronger than stainless steel.

Lamborghini has invented and patented a brand new way of creating solid carbon pieces for the interiors of newer cars. Shavings of solid carbon, fitted into a mold and exposed to extreme pressure and heat through a machine called an Autoclave, the finished piece not only becomes stronger, but has a very unique look. The best example of forged carbon fiber from Lamborghini is the entire body of the Sesto Elemento, which only weighs a little over 2,000lbs.

Lamborghini has always been known to make the greatest and craziest looking cars on the planet. And we have tons of brand new and pre-owned Lamborghini's which can be viewed on our website, or at our dealership, located at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515.

The Lamborghini Museum

Discover the history of Lamborghini at the real factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy! Located in what is known as Modena, the Italian manufacturer mecca in northern Italy is home not just to Lamborghini, but to Pagani Automobili and many others. Offering assembly line tours, and even a showroom with the very first Lamborghini all the way to the Urus, this museum is an experience from  start to finish.

Lamborghini was founded by a man who discovered his passion for building machines after he came home from the armed forces. This man got his start within the tractor industry, and eventually became very wealthy. With his wealth, Ferruccio Lamborghini bought a Ferrari and was displeased. After consulting with Enzo Ferrari, Ferruccio was told that he would never know how to make a great car. Thus Automobili Lamborghini was born, with the bold statement of "I will create the greatest super sports car in the world" and the rest is history.

Here at Perillo Downer's Grove, we have for you a huge array of the worlds greatest super sports cars in our showroom and on our lot at 330 Ogden, Downer's Grove IL, 60515. Come down and schedule a test drive! Or take a look at our website where you can find our full inventory.

Pre-Owned 2015 Lamborghini Aventador Roadster

The Lamborghini line for many years has created many different and unique colors that have helped give their cars the signature look they're all known for. Perhaps one of the most rare colors within the Grigio (Grey) segment is the glossy Grigio Telesto finish, which is very interesting in certain lights, and it looks gorgeous on this vehicle.

We all know the specifications of Lamborghini's flagship model. From the 6.5 liter V12 engine, 4WD,  0 - 60 in 2.9 seconds, Lamborghini has almost pushed the Aventador into the hypercar class of vehicles to compete with Pagani and others. The Aventador has a single clutch transmission, which means constant use of the paddle shifters located on the steering column. This car in particular has a Nero Ade interior which looks sleek, stealthy and most of all, comfortable.

Perillo Lamborghini would like to invite you to come take a test drive and hear the beautiful V12 orchestra that lies within this fantastic machine. If this Aventador doesn't suit your tastes, we have a large inventory of new and pre-owned Lamborghini's on our website or visit our showroom at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515.

With a  Nero Noctis exterior, and a Nero Ade with red accented interior, this vehicle strikes a menacing look no matter the angle it's observed.

Huracan Performante Vs. The Nurburgring

The Lamborghini Huracan Performante is now the fastest production car to ever make a lap across the Nurburgring in Germany, and this is a BIG deal. For those who don't know, The Nurburgring is a 12.9 mile long race track in Germany where all of the major supercar manufacturers test how fast their vehicles really are.

It was said a car would never lap this giant track in under 7 minutes. Two Lamborghini's have now completed a lap in under 7 minutes. First the Lamborghini Aventador SuperVeloce, and now the new Huracan Performante, which fast only 5 seconds faster than the Porsche 918 Spyder, which previously held the record for fastest production car to ever lap the track.

This is very exciting news, and a big part of it is thanks to Lamborghini's new aerodynamics system. Stay tuned in the future and ask Perillo Downer's Grove about having a Huracan Performante of your own! We are located at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515. Or take a look at our new and pre-owned Lamborghini inventory on our website!

Pre-Owned 2014 Lamborghini Aventador Roadster

The Lamborghini Aventador was originally announced in 2011 as a replacement to the Murcielago, and it took the world by storm. This was the first car that Lamborghini truly built from the ground up, without assistance from Audi, and i believe the company has found their real image. This vehicle has the sharpest lines and most hexagonal shapes i have ever seen on a car, making it look breathtaking from every angle.

 This pre-owned Aventador in particular is the roadster version, finished in Bianco Isis with a Nero Ade interior. It still has the giant V12 engine in the back and 700 horsepower like the original, however the roof comes off in two sections. The roof is made out of carbon fiber and each panel is fairly lightweight and can be stored in the trunk of the vehicle.

To find out more information on this Aventador Roadster, please contact us through our website, or come in and take a test drive at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515. Hope to see you soon!

Pre-Owned 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

The mid 2000's sparked the longest running model in Lamborghini history. The Lamborghini Gallardo took the world by storm only a few years after the production cycle of the Diablo. This car was brand new, had a smaller engine and a sportier look about it. There was a wind of change in the air... This was also the first time in Lamborghini history where they produced two models at the same time. The Gallardo and the Murcielago.

This Gallardo in particular boasts a powerful V10 rear mounted engine that generates 512 horsepower. Considering this Gallardo is a convertible, there isn't a clear window in the rear to view the engine, however the panel that covers the engine has larger openings to let out all of the heat generated by the engine. This car is finished in a brilliant Giallo Midas, which is a paint color Lamborghini hasn't used since the Gallardo was in production and has a beautiful Nero Ade interior.

To find out more information about this vehicle and many others, check out our website, or come visit Perillo Downer's Grove at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove, IL, 60515.

Unveiling the Avendator S

Don't forget that tomorrow, February 25th, 2017, Perillo Downer's Grove is unveiling Lamborghini's newest car, the Aventador S at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515.

The brand new Aventador S has taken on quite the overhaul. Considering the last Aventador on Lamborghini's assembly line was finished just a few months ago, this was needed in order to keep the car alive for the next few years before a new model is announced. Each Lamborghini model is a 10 year car, and goes through many changes in its production timeline. The Aventador S still has a V12 engine, but also generates 40 more horsepower than the previous model.

With a newly designed front end, the Aventador S is nothing short of intimidating. It still has the overall look of the previous Aventador, but with many differences. The carbon fiber blade on the sides of the car have been taken off to save weight, and two air vents on top of the engine have been added for extra cooling, and the car also has a brand new interior which is much more ergonomic.

Lamborghini Huracan Performante Testing At The Nurburgring

Recent spy shots have been taken at the Nurburgring in Germany over the past few days, where we see that Lamborghini has been ahead of schedule with the resting of the Huracan's newest edition: The Performante. Much like the Gallardo in the past, the new Huracan Performante will be limited to probably a few hundred units.

The Performante line from Lamborghini has always been more track focused. Each car in this line has a lot of weight reduced and added power. We don't know the exact specifications of the new Huracan just yet. These days, it's very rare to lap the Nurburgring in under 7 minutes. The recent Lamborghini Aventador SuperVeloce finished the lap in 6 minutes and 59 seconds, and we think the much lighter Huracan will be able to finish in less time.

We have plenty of Huracan and Aventadors in our inventory at Perillo Lamborghini at 330 E Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515. Or take a look at our website!

2016 Lamborghini Huracan

This new 2016 Lamborghini Huracan belongs to a certain class of cars we like to call “entry-level”. Meaning, they’re very easy to pick up and drive, and you don’t really need to know about when to upshift and downshift. This one in particular is finished in a deeper Rosso Mars finish which looks absolutely incredible.

Like its bigger brother, the Aventador, the interior of the Huracan is very inspired by the cockpit of a fighter jet. Finished in the sleek and stealthy Nero Ade with red contrast stitching, this car will leave you in awe at the attention of detail it took to hand craft it. This car doesn’t just look amazing. It also sounds amazing. A huge 5.2 liter V10 engine sits behind you and plays the most beautiful symphony in the car world.

We would like to invite you to come look at this car and many others in our showroom at 330 E Ogden Ave, Downer’s Grove IL, 60515. Or take a look at our website for more information!

Pre-Owned 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo

2013 was the year Lamborghini ended the production cycle for the Gallardo, which is the companies longest running model spanning 10 whole years from 2004 to 2014. The Gallardo has gone through many changes and special editions throughout the years, but this one in particular is perhaps one of the finest examples of a top notch Gallardo

This pre-owned 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo sports orange and white racing stripes above a deep gray Grigio Telesto finish which looks beautiful from all angles. The last hurrah of the Gallardo packs a 5.2 liter V10 engine and produces 560 horsepower and a redesigned front end, giving it a more aggressive look and is quite possibly the best looking Gallardo Lamborghini has ever produced. 

Come take a look in our showroom where this vehicle is on display with many others at 330 E Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515 or take a look at our website!

Lamborghini Design

If there is one thing that Lamborghini does right, it's making their cars look good. Throughout the years, Lamborghini styling has turned the brand into an absolute superstar around the world. The companies founder Ferruccio Lamborghini had a very effective approach to his cars. If they didn't turn heads as they drive down the street, they're not good enough.

The evolution of Lamborghini design has gone through quite the process in the past few decades. One of Lamborghini's most iconic cars; The Countach was actually designed by Horacio Pagani, who later went off to create his own car company. Lamborghini's more recent chief designer Filippo Perini has helped shape the brand into what it is today. With hard edges, long lines, and hexagonal shapes throughout, there is nothing else on the road that looks like a Lamborghini.

We sell these beautiful works of art on our dealership website, or at 330 E Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515 at Perillo Lamborghini. Come take a look in our showroom and take a test drive, or just admire the art around you.
