Pearl White Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0

Lamborghini only makes new flagship V12 models once every decade or there about. Usually when you talk about a VW Golf from two generation’s ago, it’s like talking about your bigger brother’s car, but when it’s a Lambo, it might as well be the model your father lusted after.
Needless to say any Diablo on the road today is priceless and makes for epic viewing material, but this one is even more unique than that. The Diablo was the first Lambo that could top 200 mph (320 km/h), and this little devil is even more powerful.
It’s a VT model, which means its the first one to have AWD, basically the father of all Lambos today. But it’s a bit different than the cars today, as it had a viscous diff that directed power only when the rear slipped.

The VT 6.0, released for sale for the 2000 model year, was the result of that design and featured significant styling changes both inside and out. When stock, this one was supposed to have 557 PS (529 hp) from its 6.0-liter V12, but it’s been tuned by SP Engineering and has racing exhaust, so it should be more like 600 hp. The video was posted by Allandiablo, who says that this is the only pearl white 6.0 in the US.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
