If they follow the countach appreciation curve, with no reason why they shouldn't IMO, it could be worth double that in a 3-5 years. GLWS.

 

I agree, and especially in the case of a roadster, where you couldn't get one in a Miura or Countach.

A Diablo roadster stands pretty well unchallenged in what it offers:

1. Mid-engine V12
2. Top down motoring
3. Design by Italian legend Gandini
4. Reasonably modern performance (530 hp in a 1999 model)
5. Low production (less than 450 worldwide, just a little over 100 '99s with its one year only design)
6. Hand built, vintage feel

 

I'm surprised no one took you up at $123k. If I didn't have my F355 I would have.

 

Absurd it hasnt sold. If i had the space woulda bought it

 

It doesn't sell at $123 so raise price to $140?

 

In all fairness, the '99 body style is more desireable to most, which is why all the craplicas want that look and the premium (far more than $20k) is deserved.

But every roadster is highly collectable, especially in THE Diablo color, yellow.

 

Which means .... If you offered him 123 today, he's take it and sell you the car.

 

Actually 450 produced with about 2/3 coming to the US. Still, rediculously low numbers and remember Lamborghini in the late 90s was an independent boutique company producing about ONE CAR A DAY.

So assuming 300 US roadsters and a population of 300M, thats one car for every 1M people. So here in Houston, that is 4-5 roadsters or so. I know of 3.

 

Not neccessarily, this guy has a big stable of fun cars and may not be all that motivated to sell. I found that alot on my search (I made legit cash offers on 5-6 roadsters). With my funding level (or lack thereof) that was frustrating.

But he has a good position in a future appreciating asset. There was a guy this Spring with an 8k mile salvage '99 roadster (had been rebuilt beautifully by George Evans) that he wouldn't takes less than $136k for. A few of us thought that was crazy. The rarer a car is, the wider the spread of asking prices.

 

I've seen the OP's answer above already......In other words, he has no interest in really selling, he rather just bust balls.

I went through this with a potential seller in the spring ..... After 3 months of an agreement , he kept changing the game a bit , along with time lines. Personally, it's a waste of time, and I refuse to deal with people like this.

Guys like this need to keep there cars.

 

Good luck with your sale , only you and a potential buyer can decide what the right price is....love yellow on lambos

 

Brilliant car, I have seen it in person at our local car shows and it simply SCREAMS in yellow. Stunning to see in person and even more dynamic to see in motion.

Patience is the key though, there is someone out there who is looking for this car and when the time comes they will pay the price to play. Good luck with your sale.
