Exclamation The updated Gallardo in '09 will have to have atleast 590HP cuz of new RS6

The updated Gallardo in 09 will definitely have to have atleast 580 to 590 or more horsepower because even the RS6 will have about 580(or 571), and the updated twin-turbo 63 AMG and M5/M6 engines will most likely have atleast 580 or more also (I wouldn't be suprised to see well over 600 HP).

Audi owns lambo, and they know that the Gallardo is and should be considered atleast one whole car class above an RS6 in terms of performance especially. There is no way they would make the mistake of having a four-door wagon and family sedan be able to outrun a Gallardo in a straight line or any line for that matter... they would have to be completely out of their minds to allow any such thing to occur.

I'm betting around 600 HP for the updated Gallardo V-10, and then the Murci engine will be bumped to up over 700 or 720 HP to keep it definitively at the top of the range of Lambos. And don't forget Ferrari will be coming out with the F460 in 2010 which will most likely have atleast 560 HP and be even way faster than the 430 Scuderia!!!

Lambo and Ferrari better make sure that the coming updated Gallardo V-10 and F460 be able to hit 60 miles per hour in no slower than 3.2 seconds, and hit atleast 210 MPH or more in top speed to be considered "Definitely Faster in every way than" the upcoming twin-turbo V-10 RS6, TT M5/M6, and TT E/CLS 63 AMG.

I agree...but have any spy shots been taken of this or any information on a TT Gallardo at all other than using common sense?

(BTW, I don't know if this belongs in the E55 section...)

Smile Not yet, but I'm sure as soon as some surface we will see them asap

Not yet, but I'm sure as soon as some surface we will see them asap. And yes common sense tells all of us that this all makes sense in order for the consumers to always be able to see a Gallardo or F460 as an absolute definite step up from an RS6/E63/CLS63/M5/M6.

And yeah, sorry, I only put this thread in this e class forum because it has to do with the mid-level sedans too, like the E63 and RS6 and M5.
