Weighing just 3,152-pounds, Lamborghini’s Gallardo Superleggera comes equipped with a monstrous V10 that generates an incredible 530hp, rocketing it from 0-60mph in just 3.8-seconds

The engine hood is made of visible carbon fiber and transparent polycarbonate, a type of material that guarantees lightness and also shows off the magnificent V10. The rear diffuser and underbody covering, the rearview mirrors, door panels and the central tunnel’s covering are also made of carbon fiber

Mercedes-McLaren SLR is a Super Car (Class 1, or full size)

on the other hand, Gallardo is a sub-supercar (mid-size supercar) :wink:.

Lamborghini Murcielago is a SuperCar:wink:

about the transparent Engine hood, Ferrari Enzo has it (2002/03).


Gallardo can be compared with BMW M6, Porsche 911 Turbo, Ferrari F430.


btw Lamborghini is developing a Diesel Engine for use in these cars:cool:

the developement got a kick-start when Audi bought Lambo.:D

are you guys interested in CARS???

i mean so interested to talk fully blown TECHNICALLY.


coz i really like technical discussions:)

for example, Honda's V-Tech, BMW's VANOS, Ducati's Desmodromic... , Sequential Gear boxes..., Pump'e Duse Injectors....,

all valve timing technology are similar but have LOT of difference.

I went to a shop in Inorbit (it's a mall in Mumbai) where they sell exact replicas of famous auto brands...and one of the toy replicas of Lamborghini cost over Rs.25000/- there were other models which cost Rs.50000/- plus ... damn I can''t even afford a toy model ofthis car ... I can upgrade to C2D with gfx 8800 with that kinda money. and drive one of these babies in NFS kinda games with the highest settings.

^play GTR2 & race with Lambo:twisted:

now you'll know its real power & handling charcteristics:wink:

GTR2 is a Simulation Racing Game, in which cars behave as the original REAL car.

so have Virtual fun driving Lambo.

NFS is a arcade game, i can beat you in a race with a VW Golf:D

not GTR, its GTR2:wink: (gtr 1 does not work whn u d/l it:D)

dude dont be so sure about NFS & Lambo:D, coz there's hardly any difference in handling, power.... between any of the cars:D.

i'm sure i can beat a fully pimped Lambo with any other pimped car, like VW Golf, Fiat Punto...:D

i know you refered it to me, :D, i havent played any FPS till date (except FEAR & COD both for total of 1hr:p ), so you cant say i suck or 'm noob... in it :p:p:p.
its just that my current PC cant handle them:oops:

but i can confidently say you suck in racing... BIG TIME:D:D:D:D:D.

to prove it, just find any of these games & come online or set some lap times. i'll break ur noob record like a piece of ............cake:p

But Still Everyone prefers a particular Car and does best with it..Like in UNDERGROUND my fav was Mazda Miata MX-5..

And yes I feel like vomiting if I play FPS continuosly for say one hour...Till date I hv only Succeeded in Half Life 1+2 and Quake 3..no other FPS games..
