    Also a cool car. The OP of this thread has to know what differentiates his car from the rest.

    As the resident Lamborghini guy here, I'll disagree. I've had my Testarossa and Diablo VT Roadster side by side in my garage for over 10 years. Even though I have a "later" Diablo, the fit and finish of the early Diablo was far superior to the Testarossa. The VT Roadster was also superior by a long shot to the 512TR.

    Now, what you prefer is personal choice. After detailing both for and winning platinum awards in both cars..I've been into everything on them.

    The Diablo and Testarossa are pretty much the same size except the Diablo is wider. Both are extremely reliable but the Diablo is far more expensive to maintain.

    At the end of the day, I always preferred the Diablo over the Testarossa. I currently have a Murcielago Roadster that will be going up for sale soon for a LP640 Roadster. I could buy a 458 spyder but it doesn't have much of an emotional appeal to me.

    Well, clearly everyone here is saying that testarossa prices are falling...

    I guess the smart thing would be to part it out...

    Motor, 50k
    Windshield 4k
    Seats 10k
    Wheels 5k
    Computer do-hickies 10k
    Gearbox 15k
    Diff carrier 7k
    Body panels... 30k?
    Frame 20k?
    Suspension 5 k?
    Oil filter $150 (kidding)

    That's $150k so far...

    Hmmmm. Guess the first guy willing to part his car out will make a killing! Who's first?

    I'm comparing 91/93 diablos to 90/91 tr imo tr is a bargain look at the asking prices of the early diablos and has the worst interior with that huge cluster driving wise tr wins and looks tr is aging much better than early diablos. Prices are not sinking there stable

    I would never buy a 512m. It’s like seeing a pretty girl you used to like that did too much plastic surgery and turned ugly;)

    Some of us like babes with some plastic parts. You need to expand your taste buds and imagination a bit and maybe then you appreciate the M.

    I am a buyer at $235K. Got a M lined for that amount in Europe. Unfortunately I cannot bring it here for another 2 years.

    The only M i ever like is actually for sale on this forum. A blue one from Japan, looks surprisingly great.

    I love the early year diablos. But I am also not a fan of the interior cluster. Other than that I think they are killer. As far as prices, I think they're going to more than likely sink a little bit further as interest rates continue to rise. The private owners with no need to sell will keep them, but the dealers and brokers will have to begin to price them more aggressively. Those levered dollars are going to start getting heavy, the free ride doesn't last forever.

    That's an amazing price even if it came close. I recently sold an '87 with ~10,500 miles for nowhere near that. If you ask me, it likely sold for a solid $120k or equivalent trade of about $135k tops. Just my opinion.
