Autocar First Drive - Lamborghini Gallardo Superlegerra

Merc1

Should I buy one?

Is the Pope a Catholic? Trouble is, the Superleggera ain’t exactly cheap at £145,000. But if you are one of the lucky few who can afford to operate in this area of the market, not a lot else comes close.

A 911 GT3 or GT3 RS are the only other road cars with similar focus. And neither of them looks or sounds anything like as good as this.

where did the rear spoiler go ?
Looks much sleeker without it

I think it's there, it just isn't up. This should be adjustable..

Yep! I suspect we'll see such a test late this year after the Ferrari is shown at Frankfurt.

Awesome coupe, I love the carbon fiber trim that makes it way lighter than stock

Lets see if she can out-perform "F430 CS"

I wouldn't count on it. Perhaps when it comes to the track, but I have a feeling the 430 Challenge Stradale will have the advantage when it comes to straight line performance (especially as the standard F430 is already over 100kg lighter than the standard Gallardo)

Once the GT2 arrives, I'm sure it'll kick everybody's ass
