| Eagerly awaited has been
the launch of the Gallardo, Lamborghini's first venture under Audi ownership
into the mid-size sportscar market. Aiming to go head to head with the
Ferrari 360 Modena, the 500bhp V10 engined Gallardo drew mixed reactions
as the covers came off. While in a real case of shooting themselves in
the foot, it has been revealed that the V10 will gain turbo power and more
horses when it is fitted into an Audi, leaving the Gallardo looking like
a poor cousin.
Very much looking like a
"baby" Murcielago, some of the styling looked awkward and ill fitting,
while the agressive, chunky tail left journalists undecided. The interior
did however win praise for its styling and layout. |
