Diablo-Ebay

great looking car and great price .

 

Broke headlight motor is a red flag imo but then again I am not the one thinking about buying it, plus the autocheck score is low but I don't know anything about how reliable that is...I think a PPI would show alot of gremlins on this car.

 

I'd say a fair price for such a car.

 

Seven owners, formerly a rental, 45K miles, I would look it over very carefully before buying.

 

I think it was a leased vehicle part of the way through its California vist - and not a rental.

A car you don't own is a rental.

 

eBay ad claims 44,750 miles, but AutoCheck report shows 64,933 miles in 9/2008. Seller doesn't address the discrepancy in the listing, and amazingly nobody has questioned it on eBay (or the seller chose not to share that question and answer). Seems like a big red flag to me...

 

I would not say it is big red flag. I think most Lambo people know that the Diablo's odometer reads in KM so 64,933 works out to be about 40,349 miles. People reading the odo's just put down what they see so it's good to inform them to convert.

 

beautiful car from far away

 

Stuff and thought like this just kill me.

What would you have the owner do...drive it off a Dock in to the Ocean..?

It is still a machine and a car...if price reflective, which I think it is close...it is a worthy purchase.

I get so tired of hearing OMG it has more than 5K miles !! THROW IT AWAY it is a POS.

Tell that to the UK guy with over 122,000 miles on his Murcie..

Lets get real, it has value and it is worth something to someoe that wants to enjoy the next 40K miles this car more than likely has in it...easy.

Now, since it is sunny out today, I think I will go take my 2001 Diablo 6.0 out for a bit...Might be a sad day as I think it will break 39K today....maybe I will just drive to the end of the Ferry terminal and let it keep going..

 

Truth.

People need to stop whining and just buy the damn thing and enjoy it for however many miles that may be. It's a car, nothing more, nothing less.

 

its a well known car that was in south cali for most of its years,it sold from chicago than to beverly hills and its been there and now in texas,it has 60xxx km which comes out to 40 plus miles,you guys with 40 k miles is like high miles lol,the owner from texas bought the car from la and drove the car to his home in texas.

 

on a km car when you for example get smogged it gets recoreded in km not miles so miles are true.

 

YOU dont KNOW ****. Too good to be true? If this car revealed $10K worth of work, it would still be a good car.

Too good to be true. Not like you were going to buy it anyways nimrod.

 

Only if you let them....

You could always drop it off here Roy if you don't need it anymore. I will keep putting the miles on it for ya.

 

Hi-f*ckin-larious.

My keyboard has a good bit of Australian Shiraz on it now, but its worth it!!!!!!!!!

There are a lot of Fierros waiting for you to stretch, and a lot of bondo ready for your usage.

 

Haha. I remember when everything was all of the VW based stuff. When I was a kid, I wrote a letter to Bradley about the GT. They sent me brouchures on it and their new model the GT II. Then they had a representative call the house. He got to talk to my Mom, who laughed pretty hard. I had a neighbor that had a Sterling with a Porsche 914 engine. I thought that thing was the sh&%. In college, broke as anyone could be, I mustered up enough for a Kelmark GT. I took two Firebird emblems and a Pontiac emblem and ground the letters off & spelled F e r r a r i . I glued it to the decklid with contact cement. That was during the Ferris Bueller days. I had a personal license plate made that said "Oh Yeah". Kit car or not, I played it out at the local bars & college & had a blast.

 

Its now the Boxter's time to get beat up.

These are the operative words here.

We all did some different things when we were kids (in 1971, I worked at a shop assembling Laser 917s). Most of us have moved on.

Almost everyone here understands that: Kit-Car = Epic Fail.

If the end result is a fake something else, no amount of money or skill can change this fact.

A select few will never get it.
