Lamborghini Gallardo

The Lamborghini Gallardo is available as either a two-seat coupe or roadster with a V-10 engine and all-wheel drive. It’s the most affordable way to get into a Lamborghini, if there were such a thing. It competes with the Ferrari 458 Italia and the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.

Still snapping heads around after almost a decade on the road, the Lamborghini Gallardo entered the scene in 2003 as a 2004 model. Built in the Sant'Agata Bolognese home of Lamborghini, the Gallardo was first offered a coupe-only body style, a 5.0-liter V-10 engine rated at 493 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque, and truly exotic, futuristic looks. In 2006, a Spyder model (convertible) was introduced, along with mechanical upgrades to the engine that raised output to 513 horsepower.
