2009 Lamborghini Gallardo Lp560-4 Coupe 2-door 5.2l, E-gear, Matt Black Wheels on 2040-cars
Tuxedo Park, New York, United States
|
Model Overview The exotic 2009 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 (Longitudinale Posteriore, or mid-mounted engine, 560 hp, 4-wheel drive) sports car comes in two body styles, coupe and Spyder. With a new 560-horsepower, 5.2L V10 engine powering just 3,300 pounds, both body styles are among the fastest production vehicles on the market today. Lamborghini claims 0 to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds, with a top speed of 202 mph. The Gallardo's 5.2L V10 engine, mounted longitudinally over the rear wheels, follows a 90-degree design and utilizes variable valve timing and four valves per cylinder for optimum performance. Compression is up from the previous 11:1 to 12.5:1. Power is delivered to all four wheels through a standard 6-speed "e.gear" transmission - an electronically controlled sequential gearbox. The system is completely revised for 2009 and shifts up to 40% faster than the previous transmission. Five modes are programmed: Normal, which allows manual gear selection; Sport, which makes faster yet sharper shifts; Corsa, a track-ready shift map; Thrust, for optimal launch control; and Automatic, for smoother shifts more like a conventional automatic Traction for all that power is more assured than might be expected, thanks to the standard viscous traction all-wheel drive system, which at constant speed brings 70% of engine power to the rear wheels but varies the ratio for best traction and stability. A mechanical limited-slip differential is used in back, and an electronic one is used in front. Dual-zone air conditioning, central locking, bi-xenon headlamps, and a 6-CD sound system, are all on the standard-equipment list. Head and thorax side air bags are standard, too. Notable options include heated mirrors, a navigation system, a video rearview camera, a garage door opener and an onboard computer. The Gallardo's design was heavily influenced by contemporary aircraft construction. The cockpit is far forward within the car, and the windshield is one of the most sharply raked in any vehicle. A rear spoiler, which automatically deploys and retracts automatically, helps increase stability at high speeds by creating downforce. |

Aventador gets a split personality in Brooklyn
Tue, 24 Sep 2013If you're going to drive a Lamborghini like it's meant to be driven, you'd better make sure there's nothing else around. New York City most definitely does not qualify, as the driver of this white Aventador discovered the hard way.
Caught in motion by two closed-circuit cameras in Mill Basin, this supercar may have been speeding down the road a bit too fast for the driver of a black sedan to see it. The sedan hangs a left right into the Lambo's path, clipping the nose on the sedan and sending the Aventador into the wall. Our take? Both drivers appear to be at fault.
As you can see from the video below and this image on Reddit, the Lambo split in two on impact, but the carbon-fiber monocoque passenger cell stayed intact. The result may look shocking, but no one was reported to be seriously hurt.
Seinfeld and Chris Rock laugh it up in a Lamborghini Miura
Thu, 18 Jul 2013Jerry Seinfeld has featured many beautiful cars and hilarious comedians in his Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee web series, but this latest episode might top them all. (To his credit, it feels like we've been saying that a lot lately). In this video, Seinfeld snags the keys to a 1969 Lamborghini Miura and picks up funnyman Chris Rock.
Not surprisingly, Seinfeld says the Miura is "the most beautiful car ever designed," and he shows how fast it can be, too. After stopping for lunch and a conversation with Rock, Seinfeld gets an unexpected chat with one of New Jersey's Finest. There are plenty of laughs, but the Lamborghini and its long eyelashes steal the light in this episode. Check it out below.
Lamborghini owner parks Countach near London Tower Bridge, everyone freaks
Fri, 10 Oct 2014With its razor-sharp wedge shape, high performance and minuscule ride height, the Lamborghini Countach has always been a supercar made to be gawked at and grab attention. Even the model's name supposedly comes from an Italian exclamation. But not all recognition is positive, as is the case with this Lamborghini illegally parked within sight of London's famed Tower Bridge.
According to The Telegraph, this white Countach was reportedly abandoned after running out of fuel, blocking a lane in the process. In that time, someone apparently attempted to scratch off part of its no-parking sticker. In the end, the supercar was hooked up and lifted onto a flatbed truck to be towed away, drawing a sizable crowd in the process. Those interviewed seemed pretty upset and mystified that someone would illegally park the car there.
According to The Telegraph, the owner was traced via license plate, whereupon it was discovered there was a warrant out for his arrest on harassment charges. He was subsequently arrested in London and later released on bail. Sadly, there's no word yet on whether the classic Lamborghini was released with its owner or if its angular self is sitting in an impound lockup somewhere.
