    -Only 1 out of 12 factory RWD Diablo produced in 1996....

    -Possess all the modern technologies of 2nd generation Diablo combined with an exciliating feel and thrill of a super sportcar....The best of both world.

    -SHOW car. +17k on the clock

    -April, 2007--- had a complete major service at Lambo of Chicago. Anything that need to be done and/or preventive maintenance was done....even 4 brand new Mich. tires w/ less than 45 miles.

    -Unbelievable car....Undoubtedly, one of the nicest and best riding Diablo I have owned. -Here is the only condition....car will only be sold to a someone who invest their time to come and see the car, get driver seat time, inspect it inside and out, over and under....IN PERSON. I figure if someone can afford it, he/she can afford to take a day off work and a round trip ticket. I shall take care all transportation and accomodation (if staying overnight)

    Had no plan to sell it but something else (much more ambixious) caught my attention this past week so I need to make room for it.

    Nice looking car. There is not much information on the 96 series cars. As I mentioned in another post on L/P, their is a seperate Lamborghini factory service manual, for this particular year model car.

    I suppose it is quite similar to the 91-93 series, less the dash, power steering, and lighter clutch. Brakes ? - The same ?



    Tom, it is time to try a Countach. You owe it to yourself, to find a nice classic sportscar. You do not need just power-assisted chickensh*t modern cars. - The 930 is a good direction.

    Thanks. Interior design and components more modern and more spacious. In addition the all the amenities of the 2nd gen. Diablo, it's also equiped with the hydrolic front lift (not sure if that's a liability or assets..... :) ) and it is and feels soooo much lighter.

    I am taking a breather from Lambo for the time being into a different marque........to fullfill a life dream. As far as classic cars, I appreciate them from the ICONIC standpoints but I enjoy the comfort and reliability associated with modern technologies too much.

    Now Tom, We are talking the hub of the universe (AKA Ohio/Cincinnati...)

    We are not in Kansas anymore Toto :)

    How does the old saying go... Those who live in Farm states - should not throw cow sh$#

    So what are you thinking about getting.... Come on - I am now really curious... You have had F-cars, Lambo's, Porsche.... You thinking Ford GT40? Porsche CGT? Jag XJ220? Am I warm ? Maybe Bugatti EB110?

    Just a hint you tease :)

    Gorgeous color Tom! There's always something about the diablo that strikes my eyes - no matter what angle, you see a different personality of the car.



    Lamarossa is selling his car?! No way!

    Since you said it was a Life Long Dream... I will assume it is going to be an older make model, something you saw or had pics, mags, etc as a child... I assume it is not new...

    I will take a few guesses -

    Rolls Royce Phantom (or some model not real familiar with the differt variations) convertible?

    Or maybe a:

    1939 Graham "Sharknose" supercharged convertible

    Or...

    1926 Packard Boat Tail Speedster

    Or a custom hotrod (aka the 1950's hotrods).

    I was going to guess a Mercedes 300 Gullwing, but they are not one of a kind....

    Am I warm?
