Precision-engineered aggression—lighter, sharper, and built for pure performance. It takes the Gallardo’s DNA and turns it into something track-focused and seriously fast... and it's 1 of only 500!
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2008 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera showing just 694 miles at the time of this cataloging. Finished in Giallo Midas over a Nero Alcantara microsuede interior, it is 1 of 500 built and offered in Dubai by a private seller.
The Gallardo made its mark in automotive history when it became Lamborghini’s best-selling model of all time. The car was praised for its performance, engine sound, handling, and of course its exotic style. The Superleggera was a limited-production variant, known for its increased power and reduced weight. Through the use of carbon fiber, engineers were able to slim the Gallardo down by about 220 lbs when compared to the standard Gallardo.
For a track-focused, visceral driving experience, the Superleggera hit the nail on the head. It delivered blistering acceleration in tandem with the confidence of all-wheel drive. The crown jewel of the car was its high-revving, mid-mounted V10, visible through a clear engine cover. Car and Driver said, “You consciously head for bridges and tunnels with the windows down, just to hear the exhaust note reverb. Flick the left-hand paddle shifter at high revs, and there’s an instant blip of soaring engine revs to enhance the effect.”
Manufactured in October 2007, this striking collector-owned Superleggera has accrued just 694 total miles. It was upgraded early in life with twin turbochargers from Heffner Performance and also comes equipped with special details like a performance exhaust system and staggered gloss-black HRE wheels. This Italian bull means serious business, whether on the street or at the track.
