Mansory Outfits Lamborghini Huracan With Carbon Fiber Body
Mansory has given its signature carbon fiber treatment to the Lamborghini Huracan.
Making a public appearance at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, the German tuner is calling its version of the Huracan “Torofeo,” referring back to the Spanish word “Toro” meaning bull, and the Super Trofeo Lamborghini race series. The Torofeo boasts a newly designed carbon fiber body with striking new air intakes on the front that help optimize the flow of fresh air to the coolers. There are also new, bright daytime running lights in a crystal design while the new mirror housings, side skirts and wheel arches are unmistakably Mansory with an aggressive design.
Up front, the Huracan has been widened 1.18 inches while the rear is 1.57 inches wider. But not only are the carbon fiber body panels lighter than the stock pieces, they are also more aerodynamic, helping channel fresh air to both the engine and rear braking system.

It’s not all about beauty either, as Mansory has built the Torofeo’s engine and added on a twin-turbo system to churn out 1,000 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. According to Mansory, the Torofeo goes zero to 62 mph in just 2.7 seconds while riding on 20×9-inch wheels in the front and 21×12.5-inch wheels in the rear.

Seems to work better on this car than the Bentley. The Bentley is ridiculously over the top.
"Toro feo" directly translates as "ugly bull" in Spanish. Is this a marketing blunder or was that actually on purpose?
