Today’s featured car of the week is a Twin-turbo charged Lamborghini Gallardo spyder by Underground Racing. Why would one twin-turbo charge a Lamborghini Gallardo? Because sometimes 560 horses galloping to all four wheels isn’t enough. The Underground Racing edition Gallardo is outfitted with a Stage 3 turbo kit, and some engine modifications. This increases power to 1000whp on pump fuel and 1250whp on race fuel. This practically doubles the output of the engine and it can all be yours for a measly $94,000…on top of the $232,000 base price. For all you non-mathematicians out there that brings the grand total to a whopping $326,000, and that’s with no options. Lets suppose you want a matte paint job $26,000. How about automatic transmission? $10,000 or carbon ceramic brakes? $16,450. One could see how quickly that base price could spike out of control. All that said lets get back to this specific car. Benefits? Well first of all you won’t be needing coffee in the morning because this goes 0-60 sub 3 seconds, that should be enough adrenaline to get you through the morning. Ladies, you wont be needing that hairdryer anymore either. This is the spyder which is car speak for convertible. At the top speed of 210+ this will definitely dry your hair; gentlemen with toupees be warned. Downsides? Well shopping will become a little difficult, you might fit 1 gallon of milk and a loaf of bread in the trunk, and you’ll go through gas and tires so fast you might want to buy stock in Pirelli and Mobil. All that said this is a beautiful machine, made better right here in the U.S.A and while it may have a few flaws it can easily put a smile on your face, bigger than the new hole in your wallet.
