When it hit the scene in late 2009, the Gallardo LP560-4 convertible wowed the crowd with 0-60 MPH sprints in 3.5 seconds, finding 100 MPH in just about 7 seconds and topping out around 201 MPH. Styled in that deliciously signature, unapologetically Lamborghini flair, with a seriously wedgy front end, massive side intakes and virtually no room for luggage, the Gallardo was considered to be the more sensible Lamborghini of the day. Nestled behind the passenger compartment, the aluminum 5.2L DOHC V-10 delivers 552 HP, a paddle-shifted 6-speed E-gear transmission sending the power, in the case of the LP560-4, to all four wheels, providing absolute grip.
Finished in black with matching alloy wheels and a leather interior, this LP560-4 is fitted with 4-wheel power disc brakes with red calipers, climate control, sport seats, a tilt-telescoping steering column, power windows and a full entertainment system. Having covered just 41,296 miles miles, the Gallardo features a convertible top that folds back, turning the rear window into a wind deflector. With the Gallardo LP560-4 costing upwards of $250,000 new, adding carbon ceramic brakes cranked up the price another $16,400, and the E-gear paddle-shifted transmission was a $10,000 option.
Introduced for the 2005 model year, Lamborghini worked diligently to iron out criticisms and make the Gallardo the best it could be, and those efforts were well executed. Although popularly considered only a two-generation car, 2003-2008 and 2009-2013, it seemed every year something was offered or upgraded making the Gallardo not only a better car, but a better competitor to anything else in the price range. A number of limited special-edition Gallardos were built including the Nera, Gold, Bicolore, Super Trofeo and more, some costing upwards of $900,000 USD. That said, in the end, the Gallardo was also Lamborghini’s best-selling car thus far, with over 14,000 sold.
It was fun, quick, fast and exclusive, all characteristics that helped it sell so well.
