 2004 Lamborghini Gallardo - Previews - Car and Driver - July 2003
For 15 years, since the Lamborghini factory at Sant’Agata last threatened the rule of Ferrari’s V-8 (then the 308/328) with the Jalpa, various owners, including Chrysler, have dangled the promise of a baby Lambo in front of the motoring world.
First blood in the revived junior division of the ongoing Ferrari versus Lamborghini supercar battle appears to be going Lambo's way: The Gallardo has 25 percent more horsepower than the 360 Modena (for a total of 493), and at 376 pound-feet, an extra 101 pound-feet of torque.
Lamborghini says it will build just 1300 Gallardos a year, which probably accounts for the use of a few Audi A4 bits on the console of an otherwise impressively roomy and beautifully finished interior.

Lamborghini, on the other hand, has much of the history and tradition involved in creating thoroughbred exotics as its Modena-based rival, yet without the prolific exploits in motor racing.
The Gallardo (pron: Gai-ardo) is smaller than Lamborghini's Murcielago in both proportions and engine capacity, the name coming from a famous 18th century bull breeder, by the name of Francisco Gallardo.
Cranking out a healthy 500 ponies in the old money, the 10-cylinder powerplant has a vee angle of 90-degrees, which was chosen over the more traditional 72-degrees in order to not only limit the height of the engine, thus increasing rearward vision, but also lowering the center of gravity for more linear handling.
