    I finally saw a Diablo...

    Anyways, after having seen Lamborgini's last 4 cars produced, I'm definately going to say that the Diablo is asthetically the best. By a long shot. It had the most incredible street presence I've ever seen.

    Some rich guy drove by me the other day in one: Bright red, child in the front seat, and what I assumed was his son directly behind him in a Giallo Modena 348. Guess which one got all the attention

    Anyways, I'm very pleased with Lamborghini's new-found VAG-assisted reliability, but there's really nothing that the Murcie or the Gallardo could match against the awesome Diablo as far as grabbing my attention goes

    I prefer the Countach myself.

    The Diablo with 4WD is good too.

    I saw an ORANGE Diablo the other day when I was arriving to my university. It was beautiful.

    By the way egg nog, how's your car doing?

    The Diablo is nice... but the Countach


    About 8 months ago I saw a Countach in Frankfurt; yes I took pictures of it and almost couldn’t resist asking the owner for a ride... ( too bad I didn’t speak German back then, otherwise I would have.). Anyway I've seen Diablos and they are great... but a Countach is just breathtaking (maybe its more like an orgasm)

    Ive seen a few lambos mostly at car shows.
    a couple of months ago i saw a orange murcielago on a country lane coming towards me doing about 100 something mph gaining speed, it was like a bullet, i hardly saw it, it was amazing!

    the diablo is one of the sleekest & most beautiful cars ever made. They are very rare so ive only seen some diablos in dubai. The best diablo was a purple metallic diablo GT. ive seen diablos in red, black, white, yellow, silver & blue only plus a Diablo VT 6.0 in dark blue & one in yellow. The murcielago itself is a breathtaker but a diablo has its own beauty.

    some months ago i saw 2 murcies in black & orange back to back on the road & following a bit behind in traffic was a blue maranello which was followed by a red 575M.

    ive seen only a few gallardo till now. only in silver, blue, grey, orange, yellow & white colours.

    I was lucky to have seen several Diablos on the street, an orange, a yellow, a black and a purple VT (complete with the white VT letters on the side). Nice cars!!

    I saw a Diablo last year at the Gratiot Cruise in Detroit. I've also seen a Countach, Murcielago, and a Gallardo. In my opinion the Countach is the ugliest sports car I've ever laid my eyes on, but that's just my opinion. Egg Nog, you are definitely right when saying the Diablo catches your eye. I could barely see it the corner of my eye, and my head snapped towards it immediately.

    I prefer the Murciélago, it looks even better than the Diablo. I saw a Gallardo couple of weeks ago, but that one is too soft for a Lambo IMO. It looks good though.
