  Lamborghini Jalpa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lamborghini Jalpa was a car produced by the Italian automaker Lamborghini from 1981 to 1988.
The Jalpa was a development of the earlier Silhouette, but was rather more successful; a total of 416 examples were sold.
The Jalpa was intended to fill a role as a more "affordable" Lamborghini, being much cheaper than the Countach.

 Lamborghini Jalpa
The Jalpa (pronounced "YAWL-pa"), named for another breed of fighting bull, was introduced at the 1981 Geneva show though the first production models didn't go on sale until 1982.
The Jalpa was really an updating of the Silouette styling with more pronounced moulded fender flares with a revised engine lid that gave it more of a hunchback appearance.
Only 410 Jalpas were built during its production life, just enough to keep values at a reasonable level to make a used example a good investment in spite of its V8.

 Lamborghini Jalpa P350
Internally designated tipo P118/B and known as Jalpa, the revised model was to be an updated version of the aforementioned P118 Silhouette and Lamborghini used an old chassis (40058) for the prototype.
Along similar conceptual lines to its predecessor, the Jalpa would be another two seat targa-topped V8 to compete directly with the likes of Ferrari’s 308 GTS (later to become the 328) and Porsche's 911 Targa, both of which were enormously successful and dominated the marketplace.
Revised transmission ratios were introduced, the Jalpa's 158mph top speed and 0-60 time of of six seconds making a genuine alternative to a 308 or 911.

 Sports Car Market > Profiles and Price Guide > 1986 Lamborghini Jalpa P 350
Lamborghini has rarely, if ever, had a stable financial history, and the early 1980s were among the most tumultuous of times for the company.
One of the benefits of a third-generation design is that the Jalpa had a well laid-out dash and console, and build quality was as good as had been seen on any Lamborghini at the time.
The Jalpa pictured here wears the "dipped" look that was popular in the early '80s, a monochromatic scheme that is now as fashionable as unconstructed men's jackets and stubble beards.

 Lamborghini V8 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lamborghini V-8 is a V8 engine designed by Lamborghini for their less-expensive (by Lamborghini standards) vehicles.
A 1994cc (2.0 liters) version was also introduced in 1975 for sale in Italy only because of the Italian legislation which imposed punitive taxes on cars whose engines displaced more than 2.0 liters.
The engine was also used in two other models, the Lamborghini Silhouette in 1976-1977 in which it kept the 3.0 liter displacement, and the slightly-updated replacement in 1982, the Lamborghini Jalpa which saw the engine increased in size to 3485cc (3.5 liters) for ease in meeting ever-tighter emissions requirements.

 Lamborghini Diablo To Contest ALMS GT Series   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Sources suggest that the Lamborghini could make its ALMS debut at Mosport on August 17th or later at Elkhart Lake at the end of August.
One not so well kept secret is that Lamborghini is keen to get back into racing, and the semi-factory involvement on this particular Diablo surely points towards a more serious factory-backed effort in 2004 if the decision makers in Sant Agata Bolognese like what they see.
Either car could be made to work, but one must wonder if savings could be achieved via economies of scale should Audi also choose to contest the GT series with their own sports car rumored to share significant componentry with the Gallardo.

 LAMBORGHINI JALPA your comments please - FerrariChat.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
The Jalpa is in my opinion one of the worst cars Lamborghini has produced.It was supposed to compete with 308 Ferrari but it falls short in all departments.Bear in mind the car was an offshoot of the Silhouette which was not very popular at the time.
So when Lamborghini came up with the Jalpa,they were in financial dire straits which led to minimal development of the car.
I have never owned a Jalpa but have driven 4 different cars on separate occasions and none of them impressed.What really caught my attention was the amount of chassis flex as i had a targa panel fly off one car when i crossed some railway tracks.
