The spider version of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 was presented in November 2008 in Los Angeles and immediately after at the Bologna Motor Show, to be sold from spring 2009 for 185,000 euros. The 6-speed electronic gearbox in Corsa mode speeded up the gears by 40%, allowing the exceptional torque of 540nM to be fully exploited at just 6500 rpm. The official data spoke of just 20” to open and close (thanks to two electric actuators) the black canvas hood. The mechanics are unchanged compared to the coupe, with the 5204cc V10.
