    I'm not entirely sure, but I think Strosek (sp?) did modify some diablos and those headlights look very much like their work to me

    Thanks for info everyone. It's an impressive vehicle to see - with the mirrors, headlights, side scoops, rear bumper mods etc - and of course the great Lambo V12 engine rumble. How many were made? And where in the world are they now?

    Well... one's in Melbourne! :D To be honest though I have no idea... I'd guess no more than a handful were made.

    Doesn't Affolter hold the Turqoise-colored Strosek?

    Among many other..."modified" Lamborghinis. Those guys have some strange taste.

    In my opinion, Diablo's look aggressive enough from the factory...the Strosek kit makes it look like a kit car.

    Dear Lamborghinisti,


    You knowwww,

    They got the Diablo sooo right from the factory, every attempt to "improve-modify" it has really been a failure. Even Koenig can't out Diablo the Diablo !
