LAMBORGHINI Gallardo _MANUAL_ REVIEW on AUTOBAHN by AutoTopNL

The Thrill of Driving a Manual Super Sports Car: A Review of the Lamborghini Gallardo V10

As I put the keys in the ignition, I couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and trepidation. The owner of this car had mentioned that it was one of his favorites, and I couldn't wait to experience its raw power and exhilarating handling. With only 91,000 kilometers on the clock, this Gallardo V10 has seen its fair share of adventures, including a few "horses" that may have escaped during those miles. Despite this, the car still delivers a remarkable performance.

I took the Gallardo for a spin on the autobahn, and as I accelerated, the engine roared to life, producing a sound reminiscent of a Formula One car. The V10's unique firing order creates a distinctive sound that is both beautiful and intimidating. As I worked my way through the gears, I couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment when I nailed each shift perfectly. However, I also knew that perfection is boring, and with a manual transmission like this one, you're always trying to improve your skills.

The Gallardo V10's performance is undeniably impressive, with some estimates suggesting it can reach speeds of over 309 kilometers per hour. While the auto version may have a slight edge in terms of top speed, I found that the manual model delivered an experience that was just as thrilling, if not more so. The car's unique characteristics and handling make it a joy to drive, especially when you find your rhythm.

One of the standout features of this Gallardo is its relationship with the driver. With a H-pattern gearshift and no dual-clutch technology, every shift requires precision and practice to master. It's an imperfect world, but one that I thoroughly enjoy. As I navigated through the gears, I found myself getting into a rhythm, feeling more connected to the car with each passing mile.

As we approached the end of our journey, I couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment. The Gallardo V10 is a rare find in today's market, and its value is only increasing. With prices starting at around €100,000, this car is an investment that could pay off big time. And with its unique sound and driving experience, it's no wonder why enthusiasts are clamoring to get their hands on one.

Interestingly, the Gallardo V10 has a reputation for being more reliable than some of its competitors, including the Lamborghini LP560-4. With proper care and maintenance, this car is expected to deliver years of reliable performance. And while the LP models may be newer and lower mileage, I believe that this five-liter engine is one you want.

In conclusion, driving a manual super sports car like the Gallardo V10 is an exhilarating experience that's hard to match. With its raw power, unique sound, and impressive handling, it's no wonder why enthusiasts are willing to shell out top dollar for this rare find. Whether you're a seasoned driver or just starting out, I highly recommend getting behind the wheel of this incredible machine.

As we refueled with nearly half a tank of petrol, I couldn't help but think about the car's history and its place in the world of super sports cars. With only 10 years on the market, it's surprising to see how well it has held up. And while it may not be as flashy as some of its competitors, this Gallardo V10 is definitely a unique gem that's worth exploring.

One final note: when considering purchasing a Lamborghini, owners should take into account that ceramic brakes are now available for the newer models. However, in 2003, they stopped being an option, and from what I've learned, the Galardos were sold with steel brakes during that time frame.

Throughout my journey, I was thrilled to discover just how much fun it is to drive a manual super sports car like the Lamborghini Gallardo V10. With its unique characteristics, impressive performance, and raw power, this machine has earned a special place in my heart.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys and welcome to this pov review about what's up now mark marx mart martin mars mars is leaving with the taken gts and obviously our lurch does not fit into that supercar again so that leaves me testing this car this is the lamborghini gallardo the original one this is a 2005 car and it's not the e-gear cool car it's not the e-gear guys it's not like 99.9996 went for the e-gear which was a 16 000 euro extra in the netherlands and nobody nobody wanted the poor man's manual but thankfully a few did and this is one of them so this is the classic italian supercar aluminium gated six shifter and it's what this video is all about oh and it's the five liter not the 5.2 uh it's not an el it's a pre-lp car so that's what the the lambo enthusiasts call it so after the facelift of the gallardo they start calling their cars lp something and then something so like a 564 stands for 560 horsepower four wheel drive so this would be a 500 for 500 horsepower 5 liter v10 with four wheel drive now this car belongs to ryko from 13th concepts which you probably know their company they have wrapped several cars of ours and they have always done an amazing job at a very very decent price so if you want your car wrapped really well and for a good price go to 13th concepts so royco is someone with a very good taste because it's very similar to mine and he put this rotiform wheels on there to make it like this porn look so we have michelin pilot sport four stars very very skinny tires as you can see and this is just ridiculous when i saw the car i thought this is going to be very painful and undrivable but that's not the case which really surprised me so we have this like army green wrap which looks absolutely awesome on this guyardo i completely love it we have a superleggera carbon fiber or rear wing which is just beautiful and just two round exhausts this is a simon exhaust so it's a little louder than stock because it's a german exhaust and they have to meet all these regulations and laws so it's not like a stray piped five liter which should be the best sound ever because that's the case with the five liter it's the best sounding lambo engine well it's it's the best sounding v10 because as you might know there has also been the 5.2 the lp 560-4 let me show you the engine because i have found a lot of info about it and that's thanks to re performance in the uk who have done many videos about this engine so go check them out in the top right corner thanks for all the info guys and the great content on these cars well that's really high both pitch wise and lengthwise all right let me tell you all about this car this is a 5 liter v10 now there have been many many wrong facts out there about these v10 engines first one is that the 5.2 is a board 5 liter that's not the case they are very very different engines this is the original engine for the gallardo so the five liter with two throttle bodies uh five liter displacement and it's an even firing v10 so you have two cylinder banks two straight fives you could say and they are both firing at the same time the 5.2 liter was an old firing v10 so it sounds like two five cylinders instead of one 10 cylinder now these throttle bodies they are really really sensitive especially because this is an early car so you really should have this checked before you buy one and the cats are also a big issue with these cars because they are really really old cats and when this engine gets hold and it gets really really hot it like burns the cats to a dust which is not a problem when you're on throttle because you will push it out of the exhaust but once you let off the throttle you get negative pressure in the exhaust line and it sucks in the dust into the engine so that's what you don't want so get rid of the store cats or go for some nice modern sports cats so that was it for the engine and apparently if you straight pipe this engine it's one of the best sounding engines ever made well it already is but should be even more insane with a straight exhaust which is often the case oh i just love this detail just have a look at this black on black guyardo logo as if we are in back to the future it's such a retro design this is a 2005 car but it looks like it's from 1985 looking at this logo hope you guys can see that why did they do black on black that's really weird so this car it's an imperfect gallardo and i love it because otherwise i would be really really careful with it not too many kilometers not too hard on the throttle you know oh that turnover sound like the moment you just you decide to give up okay it's not going to start it starts that's such a cool sound let's just get driving because the driving experience in a manual gallardo is just ridiculous now it's even better than with the audi r8 v10 i reviewed with the gated manual because this has a very thin shaft and a big bowl yes i went there and the audi has a shorter shaft with a thicker weird shape shifter okay that's really weird but in the end it means that they do really feel different this is really that classic italian supercar feel that you just won in a car like this i just can't believe so many people went for the e-gear the single clutch quirky jerky unit that gave a lot of problems and was 16 000 euros more expensive and nowadays everyone is going back to the manual because this is just classic technique it was the same like 50 years ago as it is right now and that's not the case with auto boxes they just keep getting better and better and better which is why old auto boxes like the e-gear are worthless they really are let's go and drive it let's just enjoy this so 0-100 it should do according to lambo 4.2 seconds for the manual the e-gear did four seconds dead so not that much quicker but it's really really hard to get that number this car has done nearly 91 000 kilometers a few horses may have escaped during those kilometers but i did a 4.8 with a decent launch i think but that's always the case with manual supercars it's really really hard getting a good launch getting a good first or second shift but that does mean you are trying you are perfecting it you are working it and it's not like with a duo clutch where you will hit factory claim numbers every single time it's the perfect world and it's a very very boring world perfection is boredom you may want to write that down i am going to try and launch it that was a safe launch but a great launch nonetheless maybe no performance wise but experience wise everything is great okay have a listen have a listen to that matterly sound especially from fifth to fourth here we go oh that's like a ball action rifle right oh man why is it that i get such a beep when i do that now this is not the most practical car because my camera gear is in the front which means the car cover is right here so i have a g meter a lot of g's i've been driving this car for five days now and i'm as excited as i was on the first day oh now i go the owner of this car has my m3 and i said to him okay just keep the car i'll keep yours and we'll call it even but now i have to return that i have to return the car and i don't want to i honestly love it i already told him but if you want to sell it at some point uh don't use the internet use your phone and call me okay let's take it to the autobahn and enjoy all the gears of this lovely v10 powered supercar so we have nearly half a tank of petrol and we can do 130 kilometers yeah i don't think greta is going to like this one sorry okay from second gear onwards it's such a nice sensation getting those shifts right because it's not really easy because of the h pattern the crooked shifts are some take some getting used to and take some practice downshifting downshifting again it's an imperfect world as you just saw and i love it wow that is quick now this manual version will do 309 kilometers an hour the auto will do 350. oh my god i need this in my life now these manual gallardos what do they cost well at the moment a decent one costs about 100 000 euros but i really expect them to go up in value now the lp cars the lp 564s are way more expensive well they're newer i'm really screwing this up they are newer they are later they are lower mileage but this five meter because of its even firing order is the one you want driving experience wise it's really that v10 formula one sound and when you treat it right it's a very reliable engine according to the guys from re performance so the reputation this five liter has may be a bit incorrect but that's good news because that means it's undervalued so if you have a 100 grand lying around this is the destination for it oh it's seriously quick it it did like an 8.5 somewhere around that number 100 to 200 but it feels a little faster than that and for me the experience is always a lot more important than the actual performance number yeah we have to refuel edge just under half a tank what a car what a car once more yeah you have to get into a rhythm and when you nail the shift it is perfect might have some space oh that was the rev limiter at 8 000 rpm the 5.2 will do 9000 but this sounds better weirdly get over the bumps and all throttle wow home stretch wow wow wow oh this is even better than the v10 audi r8 with the manual it it really is and it's cheaper so it's all good news today well the only bad news is that it's on steel brakes and i don't think you can get the gallardo with ceramics so they started selling these in 2003 and they stopped in 2013. so if i'm not mistaking it competed with the ferrari 360 its successor the 430 and its successor before vive how cool is that just an old school manual ammo i mean i've driven the cheapest lambo now the gallardo manual and the most expensive high-tech one the goyard performante uh i like this better for me this is it okay guys i hope you enjoyed this video is my gopro still working yes it is that one is also work this is a good day thank you guys for watching go check out this video subscribe please do so and go check out the playlist of reviews bye guyswhat's up guys
