Road&Track article: Four of the Best Lamborghinis Ever
I have just found amazing R&T tests including LP550-2 Valentino Balboni, LP560-4 Spyder, LP570-4 SV, LP650-4 Roadster and interesting interview with Valentino Balboni.

Some astonishing facts I have found while reading these articles. Both cars are simply astonishing fast.

LP670-4 SV:

0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds
1/4 mile @ 10.9 seconds and 129.4 mph speed

LP550-2 Valentino Balboni:

0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds
1/4 mile @ 11.5 seconds and 126.7 mph speed

OMG! that car is fast

No love for the Superleggera? Most Lambo owners say it's one of the best cars they've ever built.

They forgot the 560-4 coupe, its much better than the spyder in looks the only thing that surpasses it that you can hear the exhaust much freely with the topdown experience @ wot/ tunnel etc.

Crazy time difference for close trap speeds.
SV must be a bat out of hell at the start, not what I expected.

Tha is INCREDIBLE. The SV 0-60 in 2.8 Seconds .4 faster than the factor claims.
REP FOR YOU!!!
It is a shame that the pictures are so small

And what about the Diablo SV? The Jota? The GT? what about the Miura?? The reventon?? Hmm... The lp560 spyder is one of the best Lamborghinis EVER?? I dunno about that. They are all brilliant cars and works of art but, if it were me it would be the Balboni, the 670 SV, the Diablo SV, and the Miura. But thats just my opinion . Great thread and thanks for sharing!!
