| Quote » | | Limited Special Edition: Lamborghini Gallardo SE 250 vehicles in an exclusive two-tone exterior design Improved acceleration from 0-100 km/h in 4.0 seconds and improved top speed (315km/h) The Italian sportscar manufacturer presents a limited special edition of its successful sportscar: the Lamborghini Gallardo SE. The Lamborghini Gallardo SE (Special Edition) which is limited to 250 units is characterized by a two-tone body paint, an even more sporty interior and technical improvement. The basis for the Special Edition is the extreme, uncompromising and unsurpassed Lamborghini Gallardo. The Lamborghini Gallardo SE is equipped with a permanent 4WD, 6 speed gearbox, aluminum space frame, ESP and ASR, ABS, ABD, air conditioning, as well as two front and two side airbags. The color range consists of six alternatives: two grey shades as well as white (Balloon white), yellow (Giallo Midas), Orange (Arancio Borealis) and green (Verde Ithaca). The roof, the engine bonnet, the front and rear spoiler as well as the two side mirrors are painted in black (Nero Noctis) making them stand out against the body color. The rear lights are slightly tinted. The newly designed “Callisto” rims give an extra touch to the overall appearance which is complemented by the colored brake calipers (available in grey or yellow). The interior design sets forth the two-tone concept by having all piping and stitching matching the exterior body color of the car. The Lamborghini shield is embossed on the headrest of the driver and passenger seat. The Lamborghini script is preciously inserted into the dashboard. The carpets are black having the borders again matching the exterior body color of the car. Needless to say that the entire interior is handcrafted in leather partially perforated and of supreme quality. The interior design underlines the new, more aggressive personality of this Special Edition. Exclusively for the Lamborghini Gallardo SE: an additional shield with the embossed vehicle identification number. The limited Special Edition is richly equipped with standard features such as a rear view camera, which in combination with the build in multimedia screen facilitates parking. The sports suspensions with the sports steering wheel and in combination with the P Zero Corsa tire (specifically developed by Pirelli for more ambitious driving) are all standard features on the Special Edition. The long list of standard equipment comprises also an exclusive car cover. Upon request a vast range of additional equipment is available. A customer can choose additionally the robotized gearbox e.gear, as well as a navigation system (depending on the country), heated side mirrors, fully electrical and heated seats. A winter package (heated seats, side mirrors, heated wash jets, rubber floor mats, 12 Volt outlet), and a lifting system are also available. Standard tires instead of sports tires can be ordered without surcharge. The Gallardo SE benefits from several technical modifications: The gearbox is now equipped with shorter gear ratios in the first five gears, enhancing the dynamic performance of the vehicle. The result is also shown in the acceleration from 0-100km/h in 4.0 seconds which improved by 0.2 seconds, achieving a top speed of 315 km/h versus 309 km/h previously. This is shown impressively on an e.gear equipped car with a feature called “thrust mode”, optimizing acceleration and gear change from a standing start throughout all gears. The more direct and precise steering are additional modifications carried out to improve even more the superb handling of the vehicle. The Gallardo SE will be available from September onwards. In Europe it will be available at a list price of € 141.500, -- excl.VAT. Sant’Agata Bolognese, 19th July 2005 |

My word The Gallardo is a seriously sexy beast. I love both of Lamborghini's modern designs, but I prefer the Gallardo. Gorgeous.

That is GORGEOUS. I am very glad to see that they improved performance not by adding more power, but by fixing the insanely tall gear ratios. I love that steering wheel!

This Lamborghini will be PERFECT if it has his bigger brother's "scissors" door... I take Gallardo anytime over Ferrari F430/360... Lamborghini are much rare on Toronto street compare to Ferrari.

With the demise of the Grand Am SE, it wasn't certain if another manufacturer was going to step up and take the crown for Best SE-Spec Car. I'm vaguely impressed.

I'm typically not a big fan of 2-tone, but that's pretty nice.

Then it's a good thing the Gallardo still uses a variation of Lamborghini's proprietary AWD and not VAG's system...Yet.

Are you serious? The R8 doesn't use DSG, the point of which is to make the faster shifts more comfortable. DSG has about as much in common with the tranny out of an R8 as a manual does to an automatic. | Quote, originally posted by what » | ok, I was bored

You forgot to add that the steering wheel is from an RS4 and so is the cluster.

Are you kidding? Those have got to be the ugliest wheels I've seen on any car in a longgggggggg time. I like the "standard" Gallardo wheels much better.
