You Auto Know: Lamborghini Gallardo

One of the regional cover images on this week's edition of our print publication is a Lamborghini Gallardo.  The car is a rare edition Bubble White with a scant 2000 miles on the odometer.  Are you in the market for a new Lambo?  If so, a cool $144K will park this 2008 model year in your garage!

Did you know that the Gallardo, named for the fighting breed of bull, was the manufacturer's most popular selling model during its decade of production?  Just over 14,000 units were manufactured between 2003 and 2013, with the last one rolling off the production line in November of that year. 

Believe or not, two Gallardos are used by the Italian police force for traffic operations.  The pair of L140s were donated to the force in honor of their 152nd anniversary in 2004.  To read more about the history, use and manufacture of Gallardos, check out the Wikipedia Lambo article from which we sourced our facts!
