Although some might consider the Gallardo outdated, we here at Speedlux.com decided to take you bake a couple of years when this vehicle was released. Bear in mind, that at that time, it was one of the fastest and sexiest car to ever exist – and it isn’t far from there today. Lamborghini offers some of the very best exotic sports car, and the Gallardo LP 560-4 is no exception. Powered by a 560 horsepower 5.2L V12 engine that also produces 540 ft-lbs of torque, the Gallardo reaches 60 in just 3.7 seconds.
The 560 in the car name reflects the power that the engine produces, and the 4 stands for the four wheel drive.
The redesigned cooling intakes meet the demands of the new 5.2L V12, and the front spoiler keeps the car in balance at high speed. The four-wheel drive system, and the improved suspension design, together with the aerodynamic form contribute to an improved driving experience.
The automated transmission has been redesigned for the LP 560-4, thus decreasing the gear change time by 40 percent, and the driver can also choose between five different driving programs. The “CORSA” setting affects the shift speed and adjusts the engine for maximum acceleration.
The optional carbon-ceramic braking system makes use of the eight-piston Brembo calipers in the front, and four-piston calipers at the rear. The Bi-Xenon headlights provide more than enough light at night, and the LED daytime running lights give the car a more futuristic and aggressive look.
The base price for the Gallardo has by now shrunk to $237.000.
