Lamborghini had earlier made it clear that the Sesto Elemento concept when put into production will be a track special and hence the model that is set to debut next month would be on the lines of the official announcement made earlier. This time however, the word ‘concept’ will be dropped from its name. We will have to wait for the official word as to what the company plans for the future. The Gallardo is long due for a replacement and this is evident from the fact that it is losing ground to the Ferrari 458 Italia.
The Ferrari 458 Italia has set new benchmarks in this segment of the sports car market. The Lamborghini comes no where close to the poise and precision of the Ferrari which is hailed by aficionados as one of the greatest Ferraris ever built. The struggle for supremacy has been an ongoing affair between these two Italian heavyweights but, this time Ferrari seems to have leaped miles ahead of the raging bull from Sant’ Agata. We all know Lamborghini will bounce back and it is just a matter of time until the super car maker comes up with a suitable contender to take on the Ferrari 458 Italia.
