Welcome back to another episode of Da Streetz, where I chronicle the lives of Edmonton’s cars. Today, I’ve found a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, the last (but not least) version of the previous-gen Gallardo. The Superleggera had an extra 10 hp, for a total of 530, compared to the Gallardo for normies. It was also 154 lbs lighter (the European version was 220 lbs lighter) thanks to carbon fibre this and carbon fibre that and even titanium wheel nuts. Having been only available in 4 colours, this owner chose the Telesto Gray; certainly a more subdued choice than, say, Borealis Orange.

I’m not entirely sure why anyone would want to bring a $300,000+ track-day special to the gym where I work out at, but that’s just me. With Edmonton’s abysmal roads, I’m sure I could have found the owner inside by looking for the guy (no way it was a girl) gripping his tailbone tenderly.
