Lamborghini Gallardo Ultimate Buyers Guide | WATCH THIS FIRST

[@Stormtrooper_Accuracy]

I gotta say. These Gallardo, regular ownership experience videos are way easier and more enjoyable to watch than the usual youtuber clickbait.👌

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad you like them! We don't do the typical stuff like other people who own cars like this. We like showing what it's like to own and the things you actually need to know when buying and owning certain cars

[@pilotgirl5953]

I only drive mine like a manual in sport mode only and I try to never back up a hill. Your comments are right on treat it like a manual drive it like a manual and the clutch will last forever.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

For sure! I stick with manual and sport 95% of the time. I'll do cross every now and then. But it's almost too abrupt. Sport feels like the time it would take to shift a manual and should be ideal for clutch life

[@damian_ddsguy]

I think its one of the best Lamborghinis especially considering its price, hopefully one day I'll own one of these

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

For sure! Such a thrill to drive and always is a dun time! I've even been daily driving it for the last 3 months. Lots of fun!

[@number36420]

Great video. My LP560 is immaculate in the garage right now ready for a Gintani cars and coffee tomorrow. Detailed it for 3 hours today. Such a sexy car

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Sweet! Have fun at the show!

[@Gnosis314]

Idk why I'm watching this

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Fun info to know about the Gallardo and things to keep a look out for on these

[@FreeTrapMoney]

Me either

[@thegentlemansmith5411]

Because you will own one!

Lol my thoughts too. Watch before you buy, as if I’m ever going to be able to afford a Lamborghini 😂 I’m really watching as I had to MOT test one last week and I can’t stop thinking about it since 👌

[@kentwright5346]

Very much appreciate your organized and thorough review of the car.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@kbw.rvwhntr]

Lamb is looking good man! Never knew there were so many trims to choose from. Did a great job breaking down the trims, features and their prices!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks! Yeah there are more than I can even name! Crazy how they went crazy with all the versions. Seems like all their modern cars, they just keep pumping out versions. Great way to sell more I guess!

[@tecnoart101]

Awesome! Nice car and video. The car is not my dream, is my goal. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks! Keep it as a goal and you will make it happen! You got it!

[@davidnilles3117]

Great car, great video. I love the closing still shot that shows some of the cars you and Mike have had over the years. Impressive! 👏

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks! Yeah that was fun to put together with some of the cars!

[@braddeicide]

Woo for the RWD versions!!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah it was cool to find this spec! Already racked up 5k miles on it in my first year of ownership!

Life hack, you can plug in a Bluetooth receiver to the glovebox so you don’t have to plug your phone in and can stream music wirelessly.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah I know, my brother has that in his R8, he had this as well so I didn’t have to buy one lol

[@etdancer]

Thank you so much for the info. I was always confused about all the models and pricing.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad to help! They made a ton of trims and have a lot of cool characteristics!

[@davidjaskiewicz3461]

Great car! Can you drive in sport mode, with the auto trans selected, or do you have to use the shifter paddles in sport mode?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks! Yes you can be in automatic sport. It's very aggressive in that mode and will hold the gears pretty high. So it's pretty good for fun roads if you don't want to use the paddles. Normal roads you'd want to stick with auto and normal mode

[@davidjaskiewicz3461]

[@starting5524]

How are the wear and tear of materials? I heard the buttons can get sticky over time.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

My reverse, Corsa, Sport and Auto button did get all sticky. I took them completely out of the car and used goo gone to clean them down to the plastic. So basically I removed the coating and they are just smooth plastic. That' the only thing that has got bad. Everything else is holding up very nicely. Leather all looks good, no sagging headliner and the rest of the buttons look good. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2HSkKGGptWHiq8 I showed them in this video

[@ajbox2369]

Can you take it to an Audi dealership for service since there’s a lot of similarities and shared parts?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

You should be able to. It might depend on the dealer itself. If they are well verses in R8 maintenance, their techs should be able to handle this and understand what it is. Basic fluid changes shouldn't be an issue. Diag might need a special Euro shop or the Lambo dealer tho for further things. Fore me so far doing maintenance myself, it's pretty basic

[@Artofspeedd]

Great video

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks!

[@AcapellaNutella6]

great video. The clutch issues on the first gen cars scare me into an LP i think.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Good thing is, there isn't any clutch issues. It just has a wimpy stock one. About a $5k job to replace it and you can put in a newer OEM one or a good aftermarket one and it will last just as long as the LP cars. Just make sure if you do go Pre LP, see if there is a record of a clutch job. Use that as negotiation. But I do love my LP!

[@AcapellaNutella6]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed nah. Goin LP. I don’t wanna mess with all that.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

@@AcapellaNutella6 Can’t go wrong! The tech upgrades are nice too and the more timeless style I definitely like

[@Spaz456]

Im stuck between this or the R8 primarily i want to go r8 if anything breaks because ofc it's an Audi hence no lambo tax but tbh now I think it all doesn't real matter at the end of the day

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

To be honest the parts on this are the same as the Audi. So it' snow different. All have the same part numbers on 95% of the mechanical parts. My brother has owned 2 R8's and both have been great. One year into the LP and I'm loving it! Either car you can't go wrong with. Just depends on budget for which year and version you want. All are good

[@Spaz456]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed that's true and great video as well brother. I'll be picking it up soon r8 or Gallardo. looking at a 13 Gallardo and a 2012 r8 but it has tons of mods wing carbon etc same with Gallardo so it's tough but you can't beat saying "i have a Lamborghini" 😂😂🫡

@@Spaz456 V8 is nothing to sleep on tho. My brothers is the gated manual and it’s a joy! But that’d be a cool duo!

[@oreally8605]

The Gallardo keeps its value too. It just does. I would figure the Huracan would be the next step up?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah these cars have held steady for the last 10 years. While the Huracan is the newer version. Huracan is a lot more tame and less raw. It's a better car, but not something I'd sell this car for. It looses the raw character. The Aventador still has the old school raw driving feeling especially with the single clutch transmission. So if you like the raw driving experience of the G, the Aventador would be the next step up. I wouldn't mind having a Huracan next to the Gallardo. More modern, faster and easier to drive. But these cars to me are about the drama. Aventador would be some fun as my next Lambo in the future.

[@oreally8605]

​@@BrosFOURRSpeed I'm forced to agree with you!

[@Belfast_edit]

For me, Lamborghini Gallardo is one of the best Supercar ever made (my opinion overall)

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Same! Such a fun car with lots of character

[@XFXBoard]

Does it still draw attention ?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah seems like it. I don't rally pay much attention tho when I'm driving. But people definitely take pictures and break necks when I pass them.

[@marcusmarcus8826]

I bought the gtr because of you…. Now lambo would be next

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh cool! GTR was a blast and I had a great ownership. Loving the Lambo! Great next way to go for sure!

[@LangTX]

I love the LP550-2. I'm seeing them for sale between $120-150k in Fall 2024. I have a '24 C8 Stingray that I paid $82k for. I was considering trading for a Gallardo after year 2. I would gain the Lamborghini factor, however, performance is similar or slightly behind the C8 due to the transmission and software/tuning. I am struggling to justify it. That's not a knock on the Gallardo, it still punches with 2024 MY C8s, a decade later! I can't imagine what a Gallardo was like in 2010-2014! I suppose the C8 is just too good a value. Regardless these LP550-2s will always be a sweet model to me.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Depends on what you are going for. The character of the Lambo is what you get out of it. The single clutch transmission is raw and old school, the V10 is addicting to listen to and the way the car operates being a 20 year old platform is just a really fun experience. It's a modern classic. So it has the old school feeling modern cars don't have. It's plenty fast tho and handles pretty good. You just won't be pushing the Gallardo is the turns quite as hard compared to a modern Corvette. It's like someone owning a modern GT Mustang and wanting a 1971 GT to replace it to have a classic car rather than a modern car. So for me, I like how this is super raw and drives like nothing else. You can't help but smile behind the wheel because it has so much soul and character. Still new enough to be usable and livable too

[@LovreZd-lm9hk]

I want to have a gallardo, murcielago, huracan and aventador

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

All great choices! Such a fun group of cars!

[@gerardmcmillan8591]

Another guy that owned a Huracan did a video of ownership. He stated he needed new brakes so he took it to an Audi repair shop where he was charged half the price than going to a Lamborghini shop.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh wow! This has the same brakes as the first gen R8. As long as you don't have carbon ceramics, any Gallardo, R8 or Huracan really isnt that expensive. Would have been even cheaper if he just bought good aftermarket parts and did it himself. Veery basic cars overall

[@JesusCarrilification]

I have a inclined driveway that I am worried about. Will it clear a higher incline if I back up instead of driving forward?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

This actually has a lot of ground clearance! With the front end lift too, its gets pretty high. I don't even need the lift to enter my driveway which does have a curb to go over. So you should be good to clear things that most cars clear

[@blacksuede]

Ive seen a few around 90k-100k low miles 09-10

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh yeah? Probably convertibles or bad history cars. Clean ones seems to be listed $125k and up. The first ten cars I'll see for under $100k

[@hounddogjakegaming]

What ones should i stay away from if i get one someday and want to do a tt to it Head the pre lp ones ain't good to do a tt from the thestradman

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah if you plan to do a twin turbo, stick with an LP. The 5.2 is much more suitable for that. However I'd stick with a VF supercharger. Underground Racing doesn't really support the Gallardo much more with TT kits. However VF still does a lot with the 5.2 Gallardo with Superchargers. Much more reliable with supercharging and still gives you the usability of the N/A smooth power. I'd only go TT on a Huracan to have the smooth transmission.

[@Mefrom_Here]

The ultimate example of looking at shit I can’t afford 😂

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Don't have that mentality. You can literally achieve anything you want. Just start focusing on your expenses and budget your money. I still pack a lunch every day, buy clothes on clearance, have an old cell phone and live far below my means just like I did when I was in college. Live simple and over time you can do a lot on a middle class salary

[@adamsonsmlpg4songs2024]

Many people in Malaysia who spotted a Lamborghini Gallardo often pronounced the name wrong by saying GALLARDO because the two Ls are sounded which rhymes with the evil Claude Frollo from Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame and its old 1996 animated Disney film adaptation. Any concerns?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Interesting. I just say it how the Italians pronounce it. The LL is pronounced like a Y from the people at Lamborghini

[@bentorrey12]

I heard the transmission on the first few years were garbage 🗑

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

It's not the transmissions. It's the early cars clutches. They were very weak and would wear out very soon. Good aftermarket clutches exist now and will last a long time! 2nd gen cars like mine should hit over 50k miles on the stock clutch if you drive it correctly. So on first gen cars if you buy a used one with over 10k miles. Most likely it already had a clutch replacement and you're probably good to go for many years.

@@BrosFOURRSpeed The reliability section is total BS. You can't just buy cheap parts if the dealer is working on it. Also, many things require engine-out service on this car which jacks the price way up.
