To criminals in Italy: you’re going to need a faster getaway car

Lambo have donated a new, tricked-out Gallardo to the Italian cops - Lazio’s Highway Police, to be specific. The shiny LP560-4 (pictured) replaces the previous Gallardo, in use since 2004.The Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia has a 560bhp engine and a top speed of 203 mph. It’s also packing more gadgets than your average James Bond ride, including:• Automatic numberplate recognition system, which tracks and transmits numberplate data in real-time to a central control room.• A forward-looking video camera that logs GPS data, again in real time.• A first-response first-aid kit, featuring defibrulator, plus refrigerated box for organ transport.How cool is that? Very fricking cool. Check out a video of the new Gallardo after the jump…

Damn those loafer-clad Italians with their innate sense of style. If only Aston Martin would strike a similar deal with British traffic cops.[Jalopnik]
