New Lambo Spyder is a ROCKET

For years, people have asked me why people buy Ferrari over Lamborghini, or vice versa. I always described the different image each car represents, with Lambo being ostentatious looks with great performance, and Ferrari more of high-performance art on wheels that also has the benefit of 16 F1 Constructors Championships and hundreds of sports car races. And as much as Lamborghinis pin my cheeks back during acceleration and yank my guts around in the curves, I’ve always had a little bit more passion for the Cavallino Rampante. But with the launch of the LP560-4 Spyder, I would probably have buyer’s remorse if I couldn’t have one of each.
The performance capability of the LP is mind-numbing – 0-60 in 3.5 seconds and a quarter mile time of 11.5 seconds at an amazing 128 mph. Yikes! Throw in a 201 mph top speed and that’s supercar territory. The rear-mid engine sports car sports a 5.2-liter, 40-valve V10 that pumps out a massive 552 horsepower and just under 400 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels.
Properly equipped (you want e-Gear, carbon-ceramic brakes, and heated power seats), prices will top $250k, but VW/Audi engineering and reliability eliminate most traditional objections to Italian sports cars, as long as there’s enough in the bank account to cover the check.
Give us a call if you are interested in putting one in your garage!
