The Lamborghini P300 Urraco : major competitors.

The Lamborghini Urraco P300 against it's competition.

Lamborghini answered to the customers demands with the P300 version of the Urraco, better finished and with substantially more power, but by now more companies found the smaller sportcar market to be profitable. As with the P250, the Dino 308 GT4 was again a major player later replaced by the Ferrari 308 GTB which became a big selling hit for Ferrari. But the Porsche 911 Carrera was again in the picture. Other makes introduced their sportcars, like the BMW 3.0 CSL and the Mercedes 350 SL , although both were more two door coupé models than true sportcars. French car maker Renault had their little very powerfull sportscar the Alpine A310 V6 and of course the third Italian car maker was back with his Maserati Merak SS in fact a true competitor with the mid-engined layout like the P300 and the two Ferrari's (the Dino was built by Ferrari as we all know).

Return to the V-8's.
