Top speed: 196mph - 0-60mph: 3.8 seconds

Max power: 522BHP - Price: £150,000

With a 5.0-litre V10 that produces a healthy 522bhp, the Superleggera comes with 10bhp more than the standard Gallardo. It is also much lighter than the standard model because most of the bodywork is carbon fibre and most of the glass has been replaced with lighter clear plastic.

The braking's a bit better, too - from 60mph to standstill, this car stops one metre before the standard version.
