Autocar magazine of Britain (one of my favorites) did a complete roadtest of the Gallardo 0-60 4.1 secs, 0-100 in 11.7secs at 114mph and 0-100 in 9.0 secs. Very impressive numbers, however they still gave very high praise to the 996 turbo and 360 modena. I feel audi nailed it with the new lambo, something to consider for the future!

60ft times are not mentioned, however 114mph is the stated trap speed, perhaps its a typo but I just checked again.
