When Lamborghini's next-gen Gallardo LP 560-4 Spyder convertible burst onto the scenes earlier this year, the sporty two seat exotic impressed all who witnessed: it had a better albeit part-exterior from the million-dollar Lamborghini Reventon, output an additional 40 hp, and is lighter. Yes, it is a major challenger in the world of super cars.
So dropping the top on the latest Gallardo is the order of the day in the growth of the LP 560-4. With a tad-bit higher shoulders in order to support the soft drop top, the Spyder's fabric roof (which comes ion black, blue, gray or beige) is controlled by dual console-mounted switches. The car's sleek lines are well-designed while the top is on, and if you want it down, it is just a mere 20 seconds to feel the rays from the sun. Obviously, the major excitement is the exquisite growl of the 5.2 liter V10. The process of putting the top-down means the necessary rear windscreen will open. As you are motoring in the wind, the rear windscreen can be lowered or raised to be used as a wind deflector.
The ground-up modifications which support the soft top include a recalibrated spring and shock rates for more stiffness, and the inclusion of new rubber-metal bearings. The rear axle has a track rod, and Lamborghini states that the Spyder has the exact handling traits as the closed coupe version (although it's 44 pounds less than the ragtop). The aerodynamic underbody helps in structural rigidity, and the aluminum space-frame chassis has also been reinforced. The Gallardo spyder convertible gallops Zero to 60 mph in 4 seconds flat, a few tenths lighter than the coupe, and the top speed is 201 mph. The hardtop version came in at 202 mph.
The standard speed-demon features on Lambo's such as carbon fiber ceramic brakes are available on the ragtop version, but speed thirsty motorists should be comfortable by the fact that the Spyder has two spring-loaded rollover bars in the rear of the seats.
