Italian Police Adds Another Huracan To Fleet

In the USA, the fastest cars on our police force are usually the newest American muscle cars which are obviously used for high speed pursuits. Recently the Italian police force were gifted another Lamborghini Huracan to patrol the highways in Rome. But the Huracan isn't just there to stop speeding drivers. These cars can actually save lives.

The new Huracan Polizia serves many purposes. Some of which can save the lives of those in need of new organs, and need them fast thanks to a special refrigeration system in the trunk of the vehicle. Also packed with a defibrillator, the officer driving the Huracan can show up in a moments on scene to save the life of someone who is going into cardiac arrest. Other than all of the medical equipment added to the vehicle, it still has all of the luxuries of your standard Huracan, such as the massive 5.2 liter V10 engine with 610 horsepower guaranteed to blow the doors off of any car on the road. Lamborghini's new CEO Stephano Domenicali was at Polizia HQ to unveil the car personally.

Although we don't have any Lamborghini police cars in America, we do have plenty regular Lamborghini's, both new and pre-owned in our showroom located at 330 Ogden Ave, Downers Grove IL, 60515 or on our website where you can view our entire inventory. Come pay us a visit and speak with one of our many dedicated Lamborghini specialists about how you can get behind the wheel of your dream car! We hope to see you soon! And as always, have a wonderful day!

Ego Mode on the Aventador S

Everyone is familiar with the different driving modes on modern Lamborghini's. Strada, meaning Street. Sport, which is self explanatory, and everyone's favorite, Corsa (Racing Mode). And switching between these modes is hilariously easy. Located at the bottom of the steering wheel on the Huracan, and located on the center console for the Aventador, it's quite easy to switch between each driving mode. Sport and Corsa modes will open up the valves and exhaust in the engine to direct more airflow, making the car more violent, and even louder.

With the recent announcement and release of the Aventador S, came the announcement of its "Ego" mode. This gives the driver the ability to customize their very own driving experience from being able to change the position of the rear wing, to changing the suspension settings. And with the 40 more horsepower, redesigned body, and with all 4 wheels turning around corners, the Aventador S is a driving machine unlike any other. But don't worry, if Ego Mode isn't really for you, the original three driving modes are still present in the new vehicle.

If you are interested in acquiring an Aventador S or the brand new Huracan Performante, please do not hesitate to contact us at 630-241-4848. For more information on new and pre-owned Lamborghini's, you can visit our website where our entire inventory is listed. For something more personal, our showroom is located at 330 Ogden Ave, Downers Grove IL, 60515 where we have a dedicated staff of Lamborghini specialists there to help you get the most out of your dealership experience and in the drivers seat of your dream car! We hope to see you soon! And as always, have a wonderful day!

What It's Like To Drive A Lamborghini Aventador

In order to really put you, the reader, inside of the vehicles we talk about on this blog, it's going to take someone with a bit of experience in driving them. No one ever forgets their first time seeing a Lamborghini, and driving one is that next step in the experience. Let me tell you that there is nothing like it, and nothing comes close to the precision, speed, and raw power that the Aventador has. It's the perfect supercar.

This is a very intimidating car at first, but once you get more familiar with where everything is, and how to properly drive it, it becomes a breeze. Lifting the scissor doors and climbing inside the jet fighter cockpit-like interior, you start to notice all of the hard work and dedication it takes the people at the Lamborghini factory to build it. Lifting the switch to get to the ignition button is a fantastic feeling in itself. And when that engine turns on, that's when the magic really happens. The V12 orchestra comes alive and emits the most beautiful sound in the world. The powerful sound of the engine, gives you a rush of adrenaline, which adds to the experience. Although the Aventador has AWD and sticks to the ground no matter how tight the turn, you feel every bump and crack in the road, which adds to the visceral nature of the car. All things considered, this is the best driving experience one can have.

For more of the technical information on these vehicles, please visit our website where we have an expansive inventory of brand new as well as pre-owned Lamborghini's all available for a test drive and looking for a new home. Our showroom is located at 330 Ogden Ave, Downers Grove IL, 60515 where we have a team of specialists dedicated to giving you the best out of your Perillo experience. We hope to see you soon! And as always, have a wonderful day!

Happy Monday! It's a beautiful day, and what better way than to celebrate it with a drop top Lamborghini! Today, we'll walk you through a short description of the capabilities and specifications of this pre-owned Aventador roadster. Hand made in Italy, the Aventador is Lamborghini's flagship V12 model, which was originally announced in 2011 at the Geneva Motor show. 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. Fitted with that enormous 6.5 liter V12 engine, packing 700 horsepower, this vehicle will go from 0 to 60 in less than 3 seconds.

For more information on this vehicle as well as many other new and pre-owned Lamborghini's, take a look at our website. Looking for something more personal?

Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder

Everyone was expecting it sooner or later! Spyshots of the Lamborghini Huracan Performance Spyder making its rounds at the Nurburgring and on the road have surfaced within the past couple of days, and we would like to share it with you all. Just like every brand new car Lamborghini pushes out, a roadster version is never too far off; usually announced from a few months to a year after the initial release of the coupe.

Every time a new car is being tested on the track or on the road, it's covered in black and white so it doesn't give away many surprises in terms of how the body of the car is shaped, and some are even fitted with panels that won't reach production. The Performante Spyder will share the same specifications as the hard top, although will not be able to reach the same top speed with the roof off, just like every other roadster variant of a supercar. The official announcement of the car should be made sometime within the next coming months, so stay tuned for more information!

For more information about putting your order in for the Huracan Perfomante coupe, please contact us at (630) - 241 - 4848 and we will be more than happy to assist you. Don't hesitate to ask about the upcoming spyder variant as well! If you are looking for other new or pre-owned Lamborghini's, we have plenty on our website and in our showroom at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515. We hope to see you soon! And as always, have a wonderful day!

Lamborghini Centenario Tractors

Most hardcore Lamborghini fans are aware of how the company got its start in the tractor manufacturing business, and how they still make the best tractors in the world even today. Just a few days ago, Lamborghini Trattori made an announcement that 5 special tractors named The Centenario will be created to commemorate the 100th birthday of Ferruccio Lamborghini.

Two of these tractors have already been sold, and the official announcement at Techno Classica 2017 in Germany hasn't even started yet. Much like when Lamborghini introduced the Veneno and Centenario, all cars were spoken for before their official announcements. Each of the Centenario Tractors will cost about as much as a properly loaded Huracan ($266,000). Stay tuned as more information about one-off Lamborghini products are made, we will report on it!

Although our dealership does not sell tractors, we do however sell many brand new and pre-owned Lamborghini's in our showroom located at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515 and more information about these vehicles can be found on our website. Come down and take a test drive! We hope to see you soon. And as always, have a wonderful day!

Firstly noted is the beautiful exterior of the car. Finished in Giallo Orion, this Aventador is sure to draw attention from all over.

With it's 4WD and stiff suspension, even around sharp turns, this car sticks to the road. And going from 0 to 60 in just two and a half seconds, the Aventador is sure to give you a surge of adrenaline.

Lamborghini Carbon Fiber Luggage

Did you know that Lamborghini has their own clothing and accessory brand? 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! Most automotive manufacturers make their own luggage sets, in fact it's hard to find one that doesn't. But none of them make luggage quite like this. All of the materials you'd find in a Lamborghini, you'll be able to find in these gorgeous pieces of luggage.

Wether it's a hand bag, or a suitcase, Lamborghini has got you covered. The interior of these luggage cases are fitted with beautiful hand sewn leather, and the exterior is covered in a shell of lightweight carbon fiber, which in this case a little more flexible than traditional carbon. And of course with the Lamborghini crest at the top of the piece. These luggage sets are highly expensive, yet will last a lifetime. But if you're planning to rock the luggage set alone with your raging bull, don't get too excited, as most of these pieces will not be able to fit in the trunk! However you can probably fit one in the passengers seat.

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.

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.

Lamborghini Delivers First of 40 Centenarios

About a year ago at the Geneva Motor Show, Lamborghini announced the car dedicated to Ferruccio Lamborghini's 100th birthday, the Centenario. Before the car was announced, all 40 of them had been bought by customers that have been with the Lamborghini brand over the past 30 years.

The Centenario is an Aventador based vehicle with a massive V12 engine and a full carbon fiber body. Priced at $1.8 million for the coupe and $2.2 million for the roadster, the Centenario is one of the most expensive Lamborghini's ever to be made. This vehicle explores new technology and engineering that will be later implemented into future Lamborghini models, and is already finding its way into the Urus.

Although our dealership doesn't have this legendary Lamborghini, we do have plenty of brand new and pre-owned Lamborghini's in our inventory on our website, or at 330 Ogden Ave, Downer's Grove IL, 60515.

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.
