Finally ! I saw this Diablo for the first time two years ago, driving in front of me, and I hadn't been able to take a picture of it. I'd often come across the owner with his I8, but never with the Diablo. Then one weekday evening I was out for a drive and as I passed I looked at the TT, which had a spoiler, and just as I turned my gaze I saw the Diablo parked right in front of it, and I couldn't believe it. I parked immediately and went to take my photos and admire this beauty. A true marvel, this car has such a unique design, it's really impressive. The funny thing is that the next day an owner brought out his Murcielago Roadster and his F40 (Schumacher's old one and passed by on the same street), two other cars I've been trying to see for years. Unfortunately, I missed both of them by just a few minutes... I then saw this Diablo again 3 days later as I was leaving a parking lot, and as I couldn't stop I took a quick photo from my car.

What a gorgeous car and it has such an interesting history! First it was built under the command of Chrysler, which was bad for reliability and Lamborghini was almost bankrupt but then the Indonesian company MegaTech bought Chrysler and built the Diablo SV,an amazing car but even worse for reliability and soon with a big risk of dying out,Lamborghini saw the option to be bought by Audi to gain financial stability and seized the opportunity. Then the Diablo 6.0T was built and that was a completely different story,it was far better made accept it had Nissan 300ZX lights and according to some sources Lamborghini didn't remove the nissan badge from the lights. Now Lamborghini is stable thanks to the support of Audi but that is where it all began and the diablo was at the heart of all this madness! A misunderstood and disregarded car,but one with great capabilities when made well

Absolutely amazing spot! What a beauty! One of my favorite cars ever. I saw online posts of a red example near my hometown ona summer afternoon, man how badly did I wish I was there! Congrats on this masterpiece, hopefully you'll catch the Murci and the F40 soon - two other legends which are also highly ranked among my all-time favorites.
