Exclamation LA 2008 Live: Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 Spyder drops its top in 20 secs

• A convertible version of the Gallardo LP 560-4 Coupe.
• 5.2 L V10, 560-hp with a peak torque of 398 lb-ft.
• 0 to 62 mph in 4.0 seconds; top speed of 201 mph.
• Drops its soft top in 20 seconds.

There are many distractions at the Lamborghini display, one being the ladies and the other wondering how CEO Stephan Winkelmann actually puts on such a tight suit. Nonetheless, when you get around to focusing on the car, it’s hard to look elsewhere. The Lamborghini LP 560-4 Spyder made its world debut at the 2008 LA Auto Show today and CEO Winkelman says he expects this to be the best-selling Spyder made by Lamborghini.

Oh, we forgot one thing. If you want a good laugh - head over to the Lamborghini display and watch people trying to get in and out of the cars.

I just don't get it. Here was a perfect oppurtunity for Lambo to WOW us but instead another white car with black wheels. I love the way this car looks, even better that the coupe. But for God's sake, how about an interesting color combo for the drop-top. Every dealership has a white car sitting on the lot. I feel like the are jamming this combonation down our throat. They did the same thing with yellow and then orange.

maybe white looks best with the new lines? I would order it in white or black, they seem to compliment the car better.

For some reason i feel like white and black suit the car more , when the reg galardo looked better with exotic colors , green, yellow etc , but id take it in black mettalic , white is just way too played out i just cant stand it anymore of how played out it is , and stupid flat black

Don't get me wrong, I like the car in white. It's just overplayed. It would just be nice to see some imagination from such an exotic company. Even Porsche and Aston Martin create new colors for the debut of new vehicles or convertible versions

This is the new Matte white color. It is available by special order using the ad personam program at your dealer. In person it is obviously not your average white.

It is a metalic pearl with no clearcoat. You have never seen anything like it. Did you notice the complete alcantara suede interior?
