2. Car of the week
My personal pick of the week!
2008 LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO
Final bid: $28,775
It's hard to describe the Gallardo Spyder as anything but Lamborghini's best car ever. True, it's not the brand's most memorable model, nor will it likely be a timeless classic. But in terms of actual driving enjoyment and daily functionality, it can't be topped. It's the first Lamborghini in decades to be considered as daily driver.
