1976 Lamborghini Silhouette P300

The Lamborghini Silhouette P300 was introduced in 1976 as a redesigned and more distinctive evolution of the Urraco P300, aimed at revitalizing Lamborghini’s V8 lineup. Designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone, it featured sharper, more angular styling and became the brand’s first open-top production model with a removable targa roof.

Powered by a 3.0-liter V8 producing around 250–260 horsepower, the Silhouette retained the mid-engine layout of the Urraco but focused more on style and driving character.

Visually, it stood apart with widened wheel arches to accommodate larger low-profile tires, a prominent front spoiler with integrated air ducts, a redesigned rear section with a distinctive roll-over hoop behind the cabin, and the addition of the targa roof, which also meant the removal of the rear seats, turning it into a strict two-seater.

Produced until 1979 with only 54 examples built, the Silhouette remains one of the rarest production Lamborghinis and an important step toward the later Jalpa.
