Someone Stole This Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera Edizione Tecnica for $151k

Not only was it crazy successful in terms of sales, but Lamborghini made so many variants and special editions, you wouldn’t believe. I mean, how many Huracan models are there in total? Like 12? That’s a rough estimate. Ok, fine, I’ll look it up, geez!

Alright, so yeah, looks like they made 15 different types of Huracans, and this includes special and limited-edition models. What it doesn’t include is actual race cars like the Huracan GT3, GT3 Evo or the Super Trofeo Evo. Regardless, we’re dealing with 15 or so different types of Huracan supercars, for a production run spanning nearly 10 years (and counting).

Well, guess what? Those numbers pale in comparison to how many different Gallardos were made – I’ll just give you a ballpark estimate: over 30. That’s right. Over thirty (that’s a three with a zero after it). The numbers vary according to different sources, but it’s definitely over 30 once you factor in the market-specific special edition cars.

So, which Gallardo is the best then? According to Lamborghini themselves, it’s the Gallardo Superleggera Edizione Tecnica. Seriously, that’s what it says on their official website. They call it, and I quote, “The Best Gallardo Ever.” Not sure I fully agree, but let’s move on.

The idea behind this special edition Superleggera was to use the Super Trofeo championship race cars as inspiration, cut roughly 220 lbs of weight out of the regular Gallardo Coupe, and go from there.

“With a more determined, lightweight design, focus on high performance, and an overall purist look, the Gallardo Superleggera Edizione Tecnica marks the very pinnacle of the Gallardo family.” - Lamborghini.

If that’s true, then how come this 2013 Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera Edizione Tecnica sold for just $151,000? Sure, it’s got 19,000 miles on the clock, but one would think that a “tip of the spear”-like Gallardo would go for more than that, shouldn’t it? According to the seller, this is one of just 23 total units allocated to the United States, and the only one with this particular Ad Personam color.

Let’s check out the spec. The exterior is finished in special-order Rosso Efesto with tri-color side stripes and a white Superleggera script and features larger front air intakes compared to the standard LP560-4, as well as tinted windows, plus various carbon fiber elements (rear decklid, rear wing, mirror housing, side skirts).

Inside, it’s all Alcantara, including on the carbon fiber bucket seats, dashboard, center console, steering wheel, you name it. The vehicle also features dual-zone automatic climate control, sat-nav, a rear-view camera, several carbon fiber elements, plus Valentino Balboni’s signature on the front trunk lid.

As for performance, there’s a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 beneath the bodywork, rated at 562 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. There’s also a Super Trofeo racing exhaust system present, installed back in 2017.
