That is a regular Gallardo. An SE will not have a problem with the M6.

Does anyone have an actual roadtest of an SE or 06 coupe, either 6spd or E-gear? The best test I have seen and perhaps the only one has been an 06 Gspyder by MT which did a 12.1 1/4 mile at 3800lbs and with an E-gear. I have also seen the MT/Italian test where the G E-gear coupe did a 12.3 but the numbers for the Z06 and 997tt were horrible in that test which kind of makes it questionable.

Well to give you an idea, the SE 6 speed weighs approx 400lbs less than the Spider. 6 Speed is also faster than the Egear.

arent the 06 and the se the same for hp? i personally believe you with the dyno results, but dynos can be manipulated so i think numbers in terms of secs to ___ mph are more telling. while i would take the g and day over the m6, i think the m6 had it at prob 125 mph and pulled away from there as seen int he video. i want to see a test on a 06 to put all this talk to rest and see what the car will run in the hands of a true pro.

cool. def will be curious to see. the gallardo is a hell of a car, but like i said dynos dont really mean much to me personally. yea theyre good if your into hp numbers(not saying you are) but i want the real performance. lets say it this way. the 'old' g put down 493 crank, good for i dunno assuming an 18% drivetrain loss, like maybe 390-405 AWHP? is that correct, you say 40 extra whp for the new ones which translates to say even 440 to the wheels. that means that this car has oh about at least 20 WHP over the 997TT. we have seen that the 997TT has a slight edge in races, so while yea its got all this extra hp, its not translating to much. i say this because from tests i have seen the old g ran 0-150 mph in like 22 secs, the new g is running the exact same times.

although, a tell tale sign would be an 04 g vs the 997TT and see how much the 997TT pulls on the 04 g and then vs an 06 g and see the results as they are close but the 997TT does take over.
