Although covered in black disguise, there's no hiding this prototype's removable soft top. Unlike the Ferrari 360 Roadster, the Gallardo's top isn't expected to be fully automatic. Instead it will probably be more like the system used on the Murcielago Roadster that requires considerable wrangling to get it into place. In other words, you better decide whether you want it up or down before you head out for a drive.
The prototype seen in the pictures also reveals a new wheel design, but it doesn't have any changes to the side vents like we've seen in some recent prototypes of the standard Gallardo. The V10 power plant isn't likely to change much for the Spider, but given that the current engine already delivers 500 horsepower through all four wheels how much more do you need?
The 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Roadster could debut as early as September at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
