6. Lamborghini Gallardo

Lamborghini might be Ferrari’s chief competitor in its class, and the cars might be clearly benchmarked against one another, but the two companies’s attitudes could not be more different. Ferrari is pretentious, whereas Lamborghini always seems to do everything with a tongue-in-cheek demeanor. Ferrari’s cars are designed to look sporting and elegant, Lamborghini’s cars are designed to look wild; and while Ferrari seems to be mostly concerned with preserving its image, Lamborghini seems to be mostly concerned with creating insane and jaw dropping cars. Many Americans can’t help but find Lamborghini to just be a little more charming because of it.

It seems now that the Gallardo has been in the US forever, which is impressive, as it is still a competitive supercar, it doesn’t look dated, and it is still the favorite of many Americans. Without the “baby Lambo,” the company probably would have declared bankruptcy some time ago, so the Lamborghini lovers are immensely thankful for its existence.
