Lamborghini Gallardo 1st Generation
2003–2013 · coupe
Lamborghini's first Audi-era 'baby supercar' — the car that took the brand from boutique to volume. Initial 5.0L V10 (493 hp); 2008 facelift introduced the 5.2L direct-injected V10 (LP560-4, 552 hp). 6-speed gated manual or 'e-gear' single-clutch automated manual. Coupe and Spyder, plus track-special Superleggera variants. Over 14,000 built — most produced Lambo of all time.
Watch out: E-gear single-clutch clutch wear is the universal complaint — driving style matters enormously, and a replacement is a $5K-$10K+ job. Alternator placement (low and forward in the engine bay) makes service expensive due to the labor involved. Manual-transmission cars now command large premiums; verify originality.
Full clubhouse — owner Garage Lineage, common problems, year-by-year notes, and product picks — is on the build list.
