Its Official ... The Manual Transmission is officially dead ... Forever
Nearly a year ago I stated that my sources at Lambo already had plans to eliminate the manual transmission in the Gallardo replacement, everyone scoffed at the idea saying it was impossible ... I also said that they would NEVER put in a manual transmission into the Aventador ... again everyone freaked out and said that was not true ...

Here is your proof:

Lamborghini Gallardo Successor to be a Simpler Lineup - Top Speed


Like I said ...

On a side note ... from here on out used Manual Transmission Lambos should retain their value better due to their rarity.

Nope, we freaked out because you stated that it was technically impossible to put a manual transmission in the Aventador, when in fact it's merely because Lamborghini doesn't want to.
