FS: 1991 Lamborghini Diablo

Please direct all inquiries to member topcarbon here:

http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/p...=newpm&u=19535

1991 Lamborghini Diablo
54K Kilometers
Formerly owned by Malcolm Forbes

This is a known car, not just an ordinary Diablo (if there is such a thing)

Malcolm ordered this car in money green over gold leather interior. The color was from the factory, not a reproduction.

Through the years this car has received the level of care that is indicative of a collector car. I have receipts dating almost to new.

Most recently, I had the engine out and did everything imaginable to the interior of the engine. All gaskets and seals were replaced. The car does not leak a drop of fluid, and runs flawlessly.

The Diablo is now wingless as it came from the factory. I upgraded the wheels to 18 inch roadster wheels and it has new tires.

$98,800

I will consider partial trades(if you have something interesting)

This is a very unique car for sure. A good friend used to own this car before he passed. The new owner will enjoy it for sure. GLWS

Not trying to start any problems, but did Malcolm Forbes ever receive this car, or did he only "order" it?

Forbes died in 1990, and this car is a 91 - I'm wondering if he got this in his hands before he passed, or died before receiving it.

Regardless, this car is absolutely beautiful. GLWS!!!

thats correct, Malcolm ordered the car and never drove it.

Not starting any trouble, the allure of this car is the one of one nature. This was personalized before Lamborghini did that.

Tubi exhaust, and I am thinking of straight pipes.
