well the new Aventador has an all new V12, so i hope the Gallardo successor will get an all new V10 as well (instead of a V8).

This will probably be the last decade of this though.

Turbos have become too efficient and too reliable/maintenance free to ignore the clear power gains that can be derived. The stigma is long since gone and outside of "purer sound", some small additive cost, and negeleg I cannot think of a reason why one should not turbo a performance engine.

Outside of Ferrari (who have been rumored to be playing with a turbo engine for the 612 successor), I cannot think of a major manufacturer who doesn't have a high output performance engine with forced induction option - turbo or otherwise - in their portfolio.
