Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder


                           The Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder has one of the most striking exterior shapes in the automotive world. But the Spyder don’t only looks good it’s seriously fast and has one of the most luxurious cabin in its segment. The Gallardo coupe is already impressive as a powerful Italian sports car. But the Spyder is more than just going fast it also offers exotic luxury and a design which commands attention and interest where ever it goes. 

            Locally the Gallardo gives an astonishing performance. Put on the gas and the car searches for an amassing force as the revs near 4000RPM the two stage exhaust valve open and V10 hovers like a formula 1 racer. Like the coupe the Spyder uses Lamborghini 520hp V10 engine available with six speed transmission and all wheel drive system. For the Spyder 0-60mph comes up in just over 4seconds and breaking is equally outstanding with the 60-0 stopping distance of just 104feet. These numbers are even more outstanding when you consider Spyder’s 250 pound weight gain compare to the coupe. Most of the extra weight comes in the form of structural reinforcements and Lamborghini’s hard work pays off. 

               Well the Gallardo Spyder does provide excellent handling and spectacular acceleration and breaking, on the other hand the Gallardo spyder has truly luxurious cabin, the leather is soft and supple and the metallic trim around the gages, dashboard and steering wheel as a polished and upscale look adding severity and functionality with its good working MMI. The Gallardo Spyder also provides the navigation system, a great sounding stereo, head protecting airbags. It’s easy to justify Spyder’s 200000$ plus price tag based only on its speed and agility. But in the end it’s the Gallardo spyder’s civilized interior, luxurisity and features and striking exterior look that he is in the competition.
