The long version

Fourteen thousand built is a rounding error for Porsche but a flood by Lamborghini's usual numbers, and that volume did the whole market a favor: Gallardos have spent two decades as the entry point into Lamborghini ownership instead of a trophy reserved for people who don't drive their cars. Gated-manual examples command a real premium now specifically because rowing your own gears in a Lambo became rare enough to matter, and that premium is pulling them into collections faster than the paddle-shift majority. E-gear cars remain the working fleet — driven to dinner, driven on trips, doing the job a usable exotic was supposed to do.
