Gallardo models offered performance worthy of the fierce breed of Spanish fighting bull that was their namesake. Their V10 engine generated 500bhp and 375 lbs. ft. torque for 2004-2006. The all-wheel drive Gallardo could accelerate to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.1 seconds and run the ¼-mile in 12 seconds at 120 mph or better. The top speed was 192 mph. The car's stance, balance and standard adaptive suspension made it a joy to drive on the most twisting of roads. 19x11-inch aluminum rims and performance tires were standard. Veteran supercar testers praised the sumptuous Gallardo interior for its comfort. A rear deck spoiler rises automatically when vehicle speed surpasses 75 mph.
The Gallardo was destined to become the most popular "Lambo" series ever. Production at Sant'Agata ended on November 27, 2013. A total of 14,022 Gallardo models were built over the car's 10-year run.
THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
Finished in Black (Nero Noctis) over Nero leather interior, this Gallardo coupe does feature some great options including full power electric seats, yellow deviated stitching throughout the interior, yellow brake calipers as well as a front end lift system. The vehicle does include an aftermarket Kenwood touchscreen Navigation unit as well. This Lamborghini comes factory equipped with a desirable 6-speed gated manual transmission. This Gallardo has been upgraded with a set of forged HRE monoblock wheels as well as 2-piece floating brake rotors for more efficient stopping power.
The exterior front end is wrapped with paint protection film on the hood, front fenders, mirrors and a portion of the rear quarter panels. The front bumper has been upgraded to a newer Gallardo LP-570 variant, which gives the car a much more updated look. A routine service was just completed in March of 2021.
Following upon its May 2005 completion at Lamborghini's Sant'Agata Bolognese works, the Gallardo was shipped to a Southern California dealer. One of the previous owners went ahead and sent the Gallardo to the skilled craftsmen at Underground Racing (UGR) in North Carolina, known to be the leaders in the industry for building extremely powerful Lamborghini's. This car received one of their best packages known as the Stage 3 Twin Turbo package. This complete package features a custom UGR- fabricated twin turbo kit complete with water to air intercoolers, custom made exhaust system, custom fuel system, adjustable boost control and a specialized computer tuned specifically for this setup.
The engine block and cylinder heads were also completely built and blueprinted by UGR so that the entire engine was fortified to be able to withstand some intense horsepower. The result of this work speaks for itself, 1,000 wheel horsepower on pump gas, and 1,250 wheel horsepower on race gas, which is equivalent to about 1,350 flywheel horsepower. This Gallardo has received one of the finest aftermarket treatments, and UGR is known worldwide for their quality work and great reputation. This vehicle comes with a clean Carfax showing no accidents and some service history as well. At the time of cataloging, this Gallardo is showing 31,274 miles and drives in great shape.
The driving experience on this vehicle is quite excellent, while the sound of twin turbos spinning freely gives the car an exhaust note that must be heard and appreciated in person. Quite the unique opportunity to own a well sorted UGR Gallardo.
