Lamborghini fans eagerly awaiting the chance to bring home a Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder can now contact the loan officer at the bank with a figure: the new open-topped Lamborghini starts at a cool €273,142 (US $371,666). That price includes BPM and VAT.

Of course, purchasing an open-topped all-wheel drive super car with a 560-horsepower V10 need only be the start. Discerning Lamborghini buyers will want to consider opting for the newly available (in the Spyder) e-gear automated manual six-speed transmission, which is an additional €183,406. Ceramic brake discs will add €19,356, painted calipers in yellow, orange or gray another €1,129, and power heated front seats €4,839. A choice of soft top colors is also available. Expect dealer markups on this hotly anticipated exotic.

The Gallardo's new direct-injection engine provides improved emissions, which aren't typically a concern of exoticar drivers. Improved cooling and a lightened all-wheel drive system, on the other hand, should improve the already staggering performance. The e-gear transmission's shift times have also been improved.

The downside is that the Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder is sold out, of course. There's already a several month waiting list, even though the first cars aren't scheduled to be delivered until spring.

Holy moly that tranny is expensive! Whoa... I wonder what this car would cost if it was brought to Finland... We sure have a nice vehicle tax system here.

Well, the tranny clearly cannot be that expensive, so which is it 14k or 18k?

WCF should be 'banished' for false claims and too much ads. Too bad the cars sold out tho'.
