To be a reminder, the Lamborghini Italian based supercar maker launched the Gallardo model during the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, the model sporting the platform of the first production version, the 350GT.

The 350GT was lighter with around 100 kg than the standard Gallardo, as it used rearview mirror housings, central tunnel, engine cover, rear diffuser and much more.

Eventually, the Lamborghini Gallardo also received a powerful enough engine to develop 523 horsepower, being connected to a 6-speed E-Gear transmission in the US.
