Lamborghini Gallardo Tricolore

As promised, Lamborghini is launching a new special edition of its Gallardo supercar to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Italian unification.

The special model, called the Gallardo Tricolore, follows the previous Bicolore edition announced last month. But unlike the two-tone latter, the former is distinguished by a white base paint with carbon-fiber mirror housings and an off-center stripe in the red, white and green of the Italian flag running over its top and through the cabin.

No word yet on pricing or availability, but the smart money's on a limited run of 150 examples. Official announcement on which version of the 5.2-liter V10 engine (550, 560 or 570 metric horsepower, driving all four wheels or just the rear, and through a manual or e-gear transmission) has yet to be made, but the car is set to debut at a special event in Turin next week.

Lamborghini Planning Special Edition Gallardos

The Gallardo has proven a runaway success for Lamborghini. But before it is replaced in a couple years' time, the Italian automaker is reportedly planning a couple of special editions.

First up is the Bicolore edition, featuring a two-tone paint scheme like the Gallardo SE from 2006, but based on the newer and faster LP560-4 version. Word has it the special edition will debut at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show next month.

Following the Bicolore edition, rumor has it that a Tricolore edition will debut in March at the Geneva Motor Show. But instead of simply one-upping the aforementioned Tricolore with a three-tone paint scheme, reports suggest that the special Gallardo will feature the red, white and green of the Italian flag to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the country's unification.
