One of 468 produced 1997 Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadsters will be up for sale at the March Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. Despite the impressive mileage for a supercar, the car is in excellent condition: since the last service, it has traveled less than a hundred kilometers.

• For almost a quarter of a century of operation, the mileage of the roadster, which at one time was considered a cult model for its appearance and characteristics, amounted to 31,070 kilometers. However, since August last year, this Diablo VT has hardly traveled: then the supercar was revised by the suspension, replacing many components, right down to the shock absorbers. The suspension of this instance is adaptive, the wheel drive is full.
• The seller claims that the car was stored in a garage all its life and never went on the roads in winter.
• The body of this instance is painted in the original Scuro Blue color, and the interior is finished in a combination of black and cream leather. The Lamborghini Diablo VT is powered by a 5.7-liter 12-cylinder engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. The engine output is not named, but at the time of the market debut of the model, it developed 492 hp. Up to 100 km / h Diablo with such a power unit accelerated in 4.1 seconds.
• The auctioneers do not name the estimated price of the roadster. According to Classics.com, the average cost of Lamborghini Diablo at auctions is about 220 thousand dollars (about 16.5 million rubles), but collectors are ready to pay up to a million dollars for especially rare copies.
