Nissan GTR v Gallardo LP560-4

• Compare the Nissan GTR and Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4
• 2 Lap Passenger Ride in Hot Hatch
• 3 Lap Demo with Instructor in Performance Training Car

The Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 is the king of the supercars and was named the ‘Ultimate Performance Car of The Year 2008’ in CAR magazine's annual test. The Gallardo LP 560-4 beat contenders in its super car group including the Porsche 911 GT2, Aston Martin DBS and Mercedes-Benz CLK. This is the fastest ever Lamborghini and is an absolute pleasure for Ex Element to bring to you. The Italian supercar is not only beautifully easy on the eye, but scarily fast on the track and road. Comparing the Lamborghini against the Nissan GT-R is all about power and control, which the Nissan has in abundance. The Nissan GTR is powered by a 3.8L DOHC V6 engine, including two parallel turbochargers providing forced induction. The fantastically powerful GT-R can reach a top speed of 195 mph and has been tested to achieve 0-60 mph times as low as 3.2 seconds. On standard Japanese market tyres, the GT-R is currently one of the fastest production cars to lap the Nürburgring circuit. The GT-R also finished 8th on Top Gear’s famous track, with a time of 1:19.7 (equal with the Ferrari F430 Scuderia). Several automotive journalists have compared the GT-R to the Bugatti Veyron, due to its raw power and superb handling.
