2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Coupe

Vehicle Summary: 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Coupe

The Lamborghini Gallardo certainly looks and acts the part of an exclusive, exotic sports car, with its sleek, futuristic styling and a 520-hp mid-mounted V10 engine. It has no trouble scoring a prime valet parking space or outrunning lesser cars on the open road. Recent updates include two limited-production coupes, the dressy Gallardo Nera and the lighter-weight Gallardo Superleggera. Buyers can choose between a conventional six-speed manual transmission and an electronic "E-gear" automatic that can be shifted manually. The Gallardo's corner-hugging, race-ready suspension benefits from a sophisticated, full-time all-wheel-drive system. It's a tight fit inside, but standard equipment is generous. Options include a rear backup camera that helps compensate for virtually zero rearward visibility.
