This is also one of my favourite modern classics, I like the timeless pinsharp styling as opposed to the Huracans jelly mould type of styling . These will become highly collectable in years to come , produced in very limited numbers and they weren't churned like the huracan performantes were , I would " buy the dip " before they rise , they will become the lamborghini equivalent of the Porsche 2.7 RS. Nice provenance on that particular one too, bonus. ! 👍👍👏👏

Had the pleasure of driving one of these for a week x 2 times back in 2012 as part of being a member of a Super car Club that was based on pay a yearly fee and you had 20 plus supercars to use whenever. What a fabulous experience this machine it is. I actually owned a R8 V8 at the same time and it left it in the shade for the experience. Remember closing the drivers door and it always sounded cheap and horrible with a rattle and clank from the carbon fiber door card(obviously the cost is the opposite) and the seats were hard and oh dear the egear was emotional and rough,but the trick was to full fuel lift just before the change in a nano second and then plant it again. I would own one in a heartbeat if my wife would let me as it ticks all the human senses boxes and emotions in multiples times 10. Never driven a car that made you a instant rock star so much back in 2012.It was a absolute magnet. Drive a Porsche now and a bit older and really happy with my lot.

[@javierweatherspoon4313]

The Lamborghini Superleggerra was my introduction to performance cars when I was 12 years old. My mom traded some Disneyland tickets for a charity in exchange for a Lamborghini ride to my school dance. The owner took the VERY long route to my school which I could walk to in a just a few mins and made sure it was the most memorable Lamborghini Demo ride ever. Showed no restraint to the throttle and made sure to show off the braking performance. I’ve been a gear head ever since. The only difference was the yellow stitching on the seats. Other than that this spec looks completely identical.

[@lukyle1381]

Sam, after owning a gallardo with Larini exhaust for about 5 years in Singapore, I’m here to tell you, just get it. It’s one of my biggest regrets to export the car. It was one of the few cars that put a smile on my face and really really got me into driving, you wouldn’t mind driving it three times a week. Yes indeed the Lambo world is different but promise you that early ones such as this Superleggera will always, always put more smiles on your face with satisfaction.

[@AutoPilotgogogo]

Good for you, Sam, for trying something new. I drove a Superleggera along with a 458 Italia at a Las Vegas exotics track experience a few years ago. I came away raving about the 458, and feeling *blah* about the Lambo. Whereas the 458 felt razor-sharp and immediately responsive, like an extension of your mind/body, the Lamborghini felt dull and slow to respond to inputs, like driving a truck. Maybe that particular example was just in rough shape?

[@jtcedwards]

You and Shmee are some of the few if not only channels right now who are not Lambo biased and it is kind of nice. Honestly, I would rather see you sport that Renault and get up to some teenage angst.

[@memduherdogar150]

That sound is just silky smooth, I don’t know that make any sense but I really do love the way it sounds, I think Gallardo aged very well, still look modern, so it looks great, sounds amazing I think you should get one straight away.

[@iantownsend500]

For me the best Gen1 Gallardo was the Balboni. In grey with the white & gold stripe with a manual gearbox & steel breaks is my dream spec

[@cmphoto_]

I shot a house here in Australia and they had a Superlegerra in the colour of this one but with black wheels. Plus, their driveway lifted up and there was a JetSki underneath, so there’s that.

[@driverfocusedcars1556]

Wow, Eric Clapton is a pretty cool name to have associated with the car, might even help with it's future value vs other examples. I'd love to see you drive more of the "modern classic" Gallardos though before you decide to take the plunge or not, it's such an interesting era of Lambo. Loving the new logo on your socials btw.

Sam, it's all good buddy! The Gallardo is one of the nicest Lambos of all time, and it is the very best way to initiate yourself into Lambo ownership. Buying the Superleggera is first step flexing my friend. This would be a great car to add to the garage, Sam. However, you are correct in stating that if you were to go 'all-in', you may find that down the line this year, other goal possibilities maybe affected. On the upside, Gallardo's will still be available down the line as well. Decisions, decisions!

Would be a dope purchase for sure, the Gallardo has always felt like such a defining moment in Lambo history. Like the bridge between the new and the classics.

Hi Sam I am the current owner of this exact car and I agree with everything you say about it. I did see you didn't mention the famous Lamborghini test driver that has signed the sun visor. I also have a letter from Lamborghini saying this is the last ever MK1 superlaggera ever produced making it number 618 of 618 ever made, so this also means every Lamborghini after this exact model has a Audi produced engine and sound wise the Audi engine doesn't come close to sounding as good as this one.

Have owned mine for about 3 years now, it's without a doubt the best Gallardo iteration out there. The LP versions are more refined, but don't sound that good (5.0 vs 5.2L V10), and none are as raw as the original SuperG. And yes, the Lamborghini Orange County exhaust really opens it up.

I'm not a big fan of Lambo's also I don't hate them. I think it's like Marmite and Bovril. Sam I understand now why you would like to get a Gallardo, your reasoning is spot on. One can only say they hate something as soon as they experienced it. Good luck for the future Sam, this Covid just caused havoc in the world.

[@sabre22b]

Maintenence, upkeep, servicing, insurance, fuel...but then he gave it some gas under that bridge. I peed a little. WHAT a sound. I got that little lift you get in your heart at that sound. He does sound a touch defensive. Of a lambo. That sounds like that. That looks like that. There will always be faster, quicker (two different things. I won't bore you), tighter, more powerful motors out there. If you are in love though... I still love the first car I drove , the first car I owned, the first set of yokohamas, the changing over to the splitfire plugs... You get the picture. All cars can be objects of desire. Unless it's a new shape beetle. Spawn of the devil.
