    LP 590-2 is what sounds best of all...

    I would choose the LP570-4 SV, we have snow in the winter.

    There are pretenders among us.....

    i love how lambo basically takes the same car, increases power in increments (5 hp here, 10 hp there), nips here , tucks there, applies a special color combo, jacks up the price by 20K and calls it a new car. do lambo buyers really keep buying these things?
    Past- A4, TT, S4

    Present- R8 V10

    I asked myself the same question until I met a guy that owned a first gen Gallardo, LP560 and a Superleggera. He still has the lp560 (coupe not roadster) and superleggera.... guess they do.

    Yep. And it has been working just great for Porsche for 60+ years.

    IMHO ''basic'' Gallardo from 2004, and these new Gallardos are everything else, but the same cars...

    No Comment for Porsche comment...

    not really.

    the basic porsche always remains available, with S, TT, and GT3, GT2 versions on a relatively stable regular basis. not so lamborghini where at any given moment there is basically one variant with a different limited edition counterpart on sale every 6 months.

    porsche doesnt sell a different TT with special wheels, pinstripes, and a 5 hp bump every 6 months.

    Guys, my Porsche comment is comming from a huge Porsche fan, so take it for what it is.

    But to be honest, come on, Porsche has a much bigger history of "incremental" improvements than any other manufacture, and I am all for it. I like "evolution" over revolution. So back on topic, I have no issues with Lambo's current philosophy. Build a GREAT product and then milk, ahem... update it continuously till the next all new model debuts. Works for me.

    Don't be hatin'.

    The standard LP560 is just under £150k, so it should be.

    Just a question, wouldn't an LP590-4 and LP570-2 have made more sense?

    I know, that's why I asked whether it would make more sense to apply AWD to the 590 version. The RWD one will be quite rabid enough with 570 and given that the LP550-2 Billy H. Bonnie edition is speeced at slightly lower power than the LP560-4, I would be surprised if they go this way.
