to give it'credit, this was the lambo that saved the company
True true and true again
The company was bought by Audi in 98, so it was already saved by the time they made this.
@@Orcawhale1 yes but it kept it from going under again. If nothing is showing promise after already being saved, it won't be a good sign
@@Orcawhale1 Nah. If the company didn't make profit then Audi would've had to sell Lamborghini off to some other people.
@@dmcpartlin17 No it didn't.
The massive cash reserves and ownership by Audi, is what kept from going under.
People who say it has not aged well have not seen one in person. They are stunning.
Let's be honest. The car is outdated. The sound it makes.... absolutely timeless
Sounds like 2 Quattros s1 in stereo
Idk why people say that it's a timeless car to me.
Armando Morales
I don’t understand why people say it’s timeless because imo the only timeless Gallardo is the LP560-4 and the LP570-4 Superleggera. But the sound the OG Gallardo makes is definitely timeless
@@AzaanPD because the pre lps came with a manual and in my opinion better front styling. It has a real Lamborghini engine and lacks refinement. Isn't that what a lambo Is?
Armando Morales
I meant in terms of styling the pre LP Gallardo looks outdated. And the LP Gallardos came with manuals but they were VERY rare
The gated pre lp Gallardo is easily one of my favourite lambos.
All I would do is an LP facelift so I can have the LP looks and pre LP sound
Agreed!
The facelift looks way better than the previous gallardo
Idk i still like the pre lp style more. Reminds me of playing need for speed carbon
My favorite too !
Gallardos will always remind me of the "Here in my Garage!" Meme
Tai Lopez...another living meme
That was a Huracan. Not a Gallardo.
47 Lamborhinis in my Lamborghini account.
skurt it was a black LP560, not a huracan
@@rv9990 it was a Gallardo....
That 5.0 sound though!
Do you prefer lp or pre lp Gallardos?
obviously he prefers pre-LP he has an underground racing pre-lp gallardo
Tenevoy Volk he also has a lp gallardo so what’s your point
Daily use = LP
Spirited drive = Pre LP
The perfect gallardo = TT Pre LP 6 Speed
i knew he preferred the UGR gated 6 speed! and thank you for the reply JR!
Disappointed to find out people don't like the Pre LP, I love the brick tail lights, the slick aero , and the long headlights, the post LP looks good too, just not nearly as good in my opinion.,.,., Mabee it's because of my age and when I grew up, but I would take the pre LP all day long
Same, i love this body style!
10000% this ^
100% the Pre-LP is the one to get the engine sound is 100% better sounding than the LP. The guys at AGX will confirm this as well. hands down you want the Pre-LP for many reasons.
I love my 08 and everything you said it right!
To me The lp looks like an Audi that was injected with a bit of Lamborghini. It looks good but it doesn’t scream lambo
I'd personally take a raw and analog supercar over an over-refined power-assisted supercar. After all, isn't the driving experience the reason we love Lamborghini?
I love Lamborghini because he told Enzo to fuck off, and they still make tractors, even if Lamborghini Tractori is owned by Deutz and not Lamborghini any more.
Let's be honest here, no one buys or drives lambo because of driving experience
Eh, most people just see them as status symbols.
It is a great experience, although maybe not the fastest, or smoothest. The sound, styling, high speed handling and the lines more then make up for it.
@@DuBstep115 yes they do tf
Also when u shift take your foot off the gas shift than re apply just like a manual
Honestly, that’s how I’ve been shifting in cars. I found it to be much smoother this way
I dont care how dumb the transmission is or dated. I'm still working toward getting a Gallardo one day. That v10 is just amazing and the sound doesn't get any better.
the trans makes the car feel like a real supercar the dubbel clutch transmissions really made cars way to easy
Lexus lfa has a better v10 sound tho but the price is higher
@@philipmario9809 ya but its practically unattainable. I would love a lfa but its a totally different level
I'm working towards it's cousin v10 manual Audi R8
@@GR-uc1gq Save the pennies and buy S6 V10 for 5k
For all that trouble, I’d rather just have a true manual.
well yea everybody would, but it was the design that came up with the DCT
Id rather have a true manual anyway these select shift transmissions are boring as pee i dont get the appeal i guess if you go on a track i could understand it but just out driving on the road give me a true manual
Manuals are harder to find and more expensive so I'd rather have the car than not
I wouldn't want manual. In eu I drive manual everyday, a automatic usually is more premium
The manual pre lp Gallardo is probably the earliest dream car I remember having
tbh, the "slow" transmission and the smaller V10 sounds much better to drive, gives the car a more mechanical feeling tbh
agree , you're definitely driving it , not letting it take over
So uhh, does this dude know how a non dual clutch transmission works on a gated shifter?
...again TDIB disappoints me.
it aged PERFECTLY
I am old, Countach and Testarossa posters on my wall, these still feel like "new" lamborghini's to me.
I had them too! I'm 41, but I'm far from old man
@@gumballer133 😂 You're over the hill bud, just accept it
@@TTime685 Haha! Hopefully I keep going faster the further over the hill I get!
@@TTime685 what was the point?
What was your reaction when this car first came out?
I've got an 08 Superleggera and it doesn't seem to have aged horribly IMO, with the carbon fiber and Alcantara interior mine seems to have held up well. And the 5.0 V-10 with my decatted factory Superleggera exhaust sounds pretty good. I rarely go anywhere without someone complimenting it and best of all I'm not eating 30K in depreciation every year like a new Huracan and it's a relatively simple car to work on when needed.
gallardo superleggera > huaracan all fucking day
Shares many parts with Audi and has parts that were produced for almost a decade
I loved my 2004 Gallardo. One of the most fun cars I have owned to drive. My 360 felt like a heavily toned down version of the Gallardo. The Gallardo was raw and aggressive a ton of fun on a track. I think I even liked it more then my MK4 Toyota Supra's..... Wow I want one again now lol.
That's hardly a surprise, mk4 is a boring fucking car
I’ll take this car off anyone’s hands here that don’t like it
Hey David! You should do another series like the one where you found the Buick! Maybe find your first Mustang?
Listen to this man David
Why does he look like shaggy
Personally I think the pre-LP Gallardo is under-refined, and the Huracan is over-refined. The perfect balance of a raw driving experience in a "baby Lambo" is the LP Gallardo.
I definitely perfer the first gen gallardo, I like the look of the front better on the old one, the back I can go with either generation of gallardo, but the sound is what sets the 1st gen apart
4:38 i literally FELT the shift through the screen lol
I wonder if it would be softer if you let off the throttle when you shift
Been fortunate enough to drive many of my childhood poster cars including a Diablo and Countach. The Countach was so analog and raw with sooo much theater...the essence of an early supercar. Still one my favorite cars!
The Contach is my favorite all time Lamborghini and it’s in my opinion the coolest looking Lamborghini ever built
I really want to own diablo once, how frequently do you change oil?
Been waiting for your review on this David! Nice to see it finally out :D
Love the video. Stay safe out there
As a pre-LP owner, I also want to say 5.0 sounds better (especially with LOC exhaust) and you would have much better chance at finding a gated shifter, the proper shifter for super cars.
The first gen Gallardo is and will always be my favorite Gallardo
Great vid.. streetspeed is killing it
I’m glad people think it’s aged bad. I personally love the simple & more compact design. Also love seeing guys build these motors and romp on em at the track. The true enthusiasts Lambo.
Bro this is such a funny video.. Your reactions are priceless! About to pick up a gated one myself i CANNOT wait.
Hope you had a good time in PA!
Omg that Lamborghini sounds awesome i Love the sound of the 5.0 v10 and you are awesome David i like your videos realy mutch you are One of My favorit UA-camrs
Another good video man
I got a pre LP Spyder E-Gear. I certainly have a love/hate relationship with the car. Looking back, would’ve bout the gated manual. But every time I walk into the garage it puts a smile on my face.
To prolong the clutch life, I also recommend the clutches from “High Tech Exotic” the OEM are garbage.
You could always manual swap it. It’s less than 30k all in.
What do you do for a living
I was always told that if I were to get a pre LP gallardo you have to get the manual and the e gear was garbage
The e-gear is definitely garbage, but that’s also why they’re so much fun.
It's only garbage if you drive it wrong, if u lift on the shifts it's smooth
I’ll always love the look of the gallardo, it looks amazing even tho it’s pretty simple
hi David. nice vid. liked b4 watching b/c I knew it was going to be good
Sometimes slower and more raw brings more smiles per mile.
I low-key like these a lot. Honestly these give me such nostalgia for those years despite I was a little kid at 7. They sound so good
Been watching this channel since the Nessa and Jasmine days. its crazy how much the content has grown. This is one of my favorite videos to date!
I never knew that I needed to hear David's Italian impersonation more than today.
Next video: The Spaghetti Pasta Has Aged Horribly
Have one of these at work atm. Awesome fun to drive!
7:34 where's the paddles David? HAHAHAHA
I grew up with the Gallardo and Diablo being THE car to get in Need for Speed games (that wasn't the McLaren), my fondness and memories prevent me from hating on any fault it has in real life. I think it has the BEST style ever, its like the perfect style transition from older style to pre modern style, I always LOVED the long and boxy head and tail lights.
You can't even lie, that moment of weightlessness in between shifts, there is just something special about it that can't be replicated... love this car~
Sounds better than the LP cars, makes it better imo
What a sound, and those downshifts😍
I drove a 06 Gallardo at the dream car drive in central FL and I honestly expected more of it from it in terms of cornering compared to the F430.
The steering was really heavy and fought you especially coming out of corners in comparison (expected of a awd car with a bit of power). It had terrible throttle response for the first 2 laps while popping and sputtering when hitting the gas at low rpms and It’s pretty much what I expected for a baseline vert Gallardo, at first.
Once it warmed up and was feeling happy though, it took off like a bat out of hell in the straights and became a totally different car.
It was a car that’s had a rough life so I wasn’t too hard on it’s engine condition and it should be expected of any car with a racing life.
All and all, in terms of straight line speed (and sound) I had the most fun in the Lambo. In cornering though, the F430 took the cake and still was no slouch when it came to straight line speed and it would have been a good race between the two of them.
Both of them were super fun though and if anyone lives in central fl, you should give it a go if you’d like to drive one they way they are supposed to be driven.
It’s like riding in a drivable rollercoaster and something you’ll look back at and defiantly remember.
I honestly don't understand why people don't like this body style. I actually prefer it over the LP. If I could take 2 things from the LP and bring it to the pre-LP, it would be that wing and also taillights. Not the housing, but the lights within. I can understand the trans complaint. But I love the way they look.
Love the pre LPs because of Need for Speed Most Wanted 2005. That car wrecked the blacklist once you acquired it.
Love how for a perfect picture of a mercy you show Ed’s
I never noticed the difference between pre and lp gallardos and now that I see them, although i love the LP gallardos, i originally fell in love with thr looks of the pre lp and for that reason the pre lp will forever hold a place in my heart
I love this theme of driving Non modified cars! Good to see how they compare as they came to the factory!
Bam was my hero as a kid and his purple Gallardo made me want one.
“You don’t get to have a cupholder because, BWAAHH!” Easily the best quote ever from our boy David.
Having many hours of experience behind the wheel of a manual first gen Gallardo - you hit the nail on the head with this. I was curious to hear someone else’s thoughts and it sounds like you found all the same points.
I will say - I really don’t mind the rough ride and can spend hours driving the car really hard without feeling like I need a chiropractor after but it is entirely possible that it’s just me.
Far and away my favorite part is how mechanical it feels. It feels like you’re just being pushed from behind by this raw engine/machine and that feeling is pure bliss.
The pre lp ones look more iconic imo. Those big ugly brick tail lights and overly extended headlights look so great lol
Love the upshifts as well the feel is everything.
This car was in midnight club la. Been one of my dream cars since.
How many cars does mike have jeez love the videos btw
Currently Mike has:
Corvette's:
2020 Lt3 C8

He is currently working on getting a 1963 C2 split window vette as well.
I have a pre LP Spyder with an LP front bumper and carbon fiber interior, side skirts and wing. It still has the true Lamborghini motor that just has that scream. Best of both worlds. Car is black and the top of the taillights have black vinyl. Easy fix and looks nearly identical to the LP.
Beautiful we used to have one now have a hellcat and 2021 HURCAN EVO RWD
7:35 David misses the paddle😂😂
I honestly think I would prefer a transmission like this one to the newer and smoother dual clutches. There's a roughness and a raw racecar feeling there that I just like. Honestly, I think I like that car more than the newer ones. Haven't driven any of them, probably never will, but that's just my opinion from what i've seen.
It's one of the reasons why I'm sad the next V12 will also move away from the single clutch.
I like the drama of the shifts. It’s rough but a Lamborghini is supposed to be harsh and dramatic.
Nope... That car is actually timeless and aged well and still a head turner
bought an '08 spyder. catless exhaust, rwd coversion. love it
This is one of my favorite Lambos ever made. The design is beautiful and the engine is astounding
When I was 12 I had a Spyker C12 Zagato poster on my wall. Ahhh good times. Good times.
Ahhhhh XD I remember that poster haha
better than my online school
The Gallardo is one of my all time favourite Lambo's... I hope I can own one someday, pre LP or post.
I was curious to watch this. I picked up a pre LP (also yellow, but gated) last year that needed work. Having *mostly* sorted it, one thing I'll say is that it's pretty usable, I'm not sure I'd be inclined to drive a "big body" car as often, whereas with the Gallardo it's easy as "I have an errand to run, I'll take the Lamborghini". Thus there is some non-monetary value proposition there of lower barriers to just jump in and go. It's also been shockingly easy to work on, although in typical fashion, the mostly-italian shop manual is garbage.
It’s aged beautifullly imo. And the straight lines looks futuristic🔥
I really don’t understand why your channel isn’t getting the views it used to. Have noticed it for a while. Sure hope it comes back to life and you start making the money you deserve!
Cause he supports Trump and UA-cam shadow banned him
I agree the LP refresh makes the previous one hard to look at haha
this car has aged great WTF are you talking about?!?!
Dude maybe the transmission is bad, but to me it doesn’t feel it. Sure late in the day when you’re headed back to town and just want to get some food some of those downshifts at the stoplights throw you forward a little much and start to get on your nerves once you’ve had your fun for the day. But for me, Saturday morning when you’re ready for some antics, it just translates to straight drama once you get on it. I love that gap of silence between the shifts that feels like it takes foreverrrr for the next gear to kick in 😂 then you get a horse kick in the back as you run into the next gear. Also, like you said best part is the upshifts 100%, so loud and aggressive. This car still commands as much attention going through town as any modern Lambo. Nice video loved the thorough review.
I have the very similar 08 V10 M6 with the single clutch SMG auto. I love every second of it... it is raw and fun. Oh and I live 45 minutes from Hershey tell Mike we should get the V10 's together!
Easily my favorite car. Will definitely own one during my lifetime.
That shifting to neutral is a myth its not true about wearing out the clutch
Gotta get a manual with them, but this is one of the best sounding cars in existence, I love it!
I've always loved these cars!
looks mint!
Sure, it’s outdated, but I still like how it looks and sounds. It’s a little pocket rocket that anyone can drive. Whether or not anyone can drive it full throttle, however, is a different story.
That 5.0 V10 sounds amazing!
How do you rate the LP E-Gear over the pre-LP E-Gear. Is it less "rough"?
"no I'm a lamborrrghini I do whatt I wantt" had me dead 😂
When it comes to design and looks every Lambo was ahead of its time and aged well. Countach came out in early 70s and it turn heads today as much as it did half a century ago. Just look at the Aventador, it came out 13 years ago and it looks modern in and out. It even had a digital cluster as a base model!
😂 at 7:37 when David pulls the invisible paddle
Even though it has aged, still one of my favourite cars of all time.
I think that if you plan on buying a pre lp you need to get the gated shifter. It will probably be more collectable in the long run.
I saw an exact same one in that yellow color in Italy a year ago and that literally made my trip worth it 👌
that sound is everything for this car and mike knows it ahaha
It looks way better than today's Lamborghinis. A very clean design, no cheap ass plastic crap.
that downshift does sound great! but id need that gated manual
which one should i get. Either a 04 gallardo with a bluetooth or the new 2022 C8
i prefer the 5.0 gallardo, they sound amazing
For a sports car...I would always prefer one that is less refined and like you said, mote analog. Definitely more fun!
It's funny cause LP just means Longitudinale Posteriore", which refers to the longitudinal mid-rear engine position.
