Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera VS Ferrari 430 Scuderia

[@MarcSob22]

I've been working in the area for just over 15 years, and I've had the opportunity to drive both cars several times. I love the Superleggera, but even a normal 430 is better in every way and more fun. The Scuderia is on another level!

[@normalguysupercar]

Agreed.

[@18000rpm]

The SuperFast 2 transmission is also available in the Maserati Granturismo MC Stradale, although that's not available in the US.

[@normalguysupercar]

Interesting

[@Turnersspeedshop]

Both have pros & cons and Bottom line they are Amazing pieces of Machinery and anyone able 2 own 1of these amazing pieces of art is truly blessed with an incredible experience!

[@normalguysupercar]

Agreed

[@TaffPlays]

A cool thing that people may have forgotten about is on Top Gear, Jeremy actually drove a factory gated manual 1st gen Superleggera as part of finding the perfect driving road in Europe (Richard was in a GT3RS manual, and James was in an Aston Martin race car), and it looked similar to the one in this video although with the small wing (which I also think is less common, even the exact car he drove doesn't have it anymore and got swapped to the big wing).

[@normalguysupercar]

Ah nice!

[@Spin_stagrams]

Great to see these two revisited 20 years on. I’ve been gobbling up your content because I’m currently considering LP, 430, R8, 997. Nice problem to have but order of preference changes with wind direction 😂

I will have the lamborghini then if no one wants it 😂 the early V10s sounds epic 😎 I would love to build a V10 😍

[@tonyzamudio8708]

Which Lamborghini model are you referring to? The Murciélago (Pre-LP640, LP640 Manuals, and SV), Aventador SV/SVJ, Huracán Performante, and the classic Countach and even later model Diablo 6.0 all disagree. The models are holding value very well and over MSRP. These aren't event the one off Lambo models like a Veneno.

[@khel9505]

Ferrari hold their value because of the formula 1 history. But look at the market for sf90 they crash like a brick

[@jameswatson7218]

When comparing issues the Lamborghini is much more reliable because of Audi

Both are awesome cars. Gallardo Superleggera is a rare sighting. Ever hear of the 2005 Momo edition Gallardo? Only 12 of those produced.

[@normalguysupercar]

There's a bunch of strange low production editions. Lamborghini loves to do that

[@Not_APoser]

It's simply because of that gearbox in the Scud, its value is 2x that of the Mk1 Superleggera. The difference in values between the Superleggera and Scuderia definitely reflects in their drive and also Audi parts doesn't help the Superleggera's case.

[@normalguysupercar]

Agreed. The SF2 is outstanding.

I’m taking a Superleggera every time, the price delta is just too much between it and the Scud. If they were closer in pricing, maybe say 3-40K more than the Lamborghini I’d take the Scud as I prefer everything about it, it’s a better package for the type of driving I like to do and looks better in my opinion. Both will be highly sought after collector cars 20 years from now though i expect the difference in pricing to be even more extreme then.

The GREATEST Lambo blast was Meg" Lambo owners are just mustang owners taking their final form"

[@ricsu3462]

Scud is dynamically way better than lambo during this golden Ferrari Schmaucher era, but the lambo has its charm with the sound looks and brute power. Ironically lambo today is the better brand and being more purist, staying with big NA engines and staying true to the DNA while Ferrari is just clueless running hybrids and suvs and front engines etc. it’s feeding off its fantastic old cars but the new crap is diluting the brand slowly, best they can hope for is another f1 championship soon to claim they still got it. that’s why old lambo values are on the rise quick. I love everything about the super G, however just like murcies, the upkeep on the super G is much higher than the 430 platform (scarce parts, have a number of expensive issues like AC and engine esp on the pre lp)so that’s def a factor …while murcies have doubled and tripled the gallardo have been lagging for some reason.. but scud super G and 997 gt3rs are def a trio of future classics of that golden era of last of analogue cars

[@normalguysupercar]

You aren't wrong about the modern cars. Although the latest lambo is disappointing.

[@Not_APoser]

@@ricsu3462 Your take on modern cars is just clueless! All cars in Lambo's lineup is a hybrid now and Ferrari still offers a NA V12 free from hybrid components. Lambo is still a brand for posers, not for drivers, which is why you see Lambo owners revving their cars in the middle of a public road. Also more than 50% of total Lambo sales is from their SUV and the Pista is a much better driver's car than any Huracan.

[@Sandy-oy2lr]

I'd have to choose the Ferrari over the Lamborghini. As much as I admire the Lambo, for me, the Ferrari just provides all the compromises I'd want in a sports GT. I like the more refined styling and I'd prefer the ability to take long road trips. I'd probably never take it to the track. So the softer demeanor of the Ferrari would be more for me. I'd still prefer a manual over the single clutch auto...My TR6060 is just too terrific to give up....

[@normalguysupercar]

Technically the Scud can be converted to a manual....
