Lamborghini Gallardo Spider

Why does Clarkson like this car so much? Because "when you go above 3500rpm it makes a noise like a punctured sumo wrestler. And because you sit so far forwards, which makes it feel like you're on the nose of some giant, snarling power-crazed animal".

Add to that the four wheel drive system, which gives you added confidence as it manfully copes with the 510bhp and the breathtaking acceleration. A wonderfully exciting car for both those who wish to be noticed and those who thrive on the thrill of raw horsepower on the open road.

Lamborghini Gallardo Spider Specification

Specification

Great care has been taken over the structural design of the new Gallardo Spyder, which, of course, complies fully with all the relevant safety standards. The space frame has been reinforced in the area of the sills and the A pillars have been strengthened with the adoption of an automatic rollover protection system (comprising two ‘pop-ups') integrated with the air bag system. Like other models in the range, the Gallardo Spyder also benefits from aluminium bodywork and features permanent four-wheel drive.

The Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder features a number of important modifications to the original Gallardo Coupé's engine and transmission system. The 10-cylinder 4961cc propulsion unit now develops 520hp (382 kW) at 8,000rpm. The six-speed gearbox creates a more dynamic performance with lower ratios: first gear is 27% lower, second gear is 13%. Third, fourth and fifth gears are all 6% lower, while sixth gear is 3.5% lower. The steering is also more direct and precise and the suspension has been recalibrated.
