1991 Lamborghini Diablo White/Red

Year: 1991
Make: Lamborghini
Model: Diablo
Price: $79500
Mileage: 34000
Color: White
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): VA
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive

As much as I love the car, there are some other, smarter things I could do with the money right now. 1991 Lamborghini Diablo. White with red interior. Celebrity Owned. Roughly 34000 miles (54,XXX KM) but I will be driving it still so mileage may change. I purchased the car from an individual in Tulsa, OK in June of 2009 with roughly (43,000 KM). Oil pressure issues were noticed shortly thereafter requiring an engine out service, which was done by Chadbourn Bolles in SC (well known in the Lambo community). The issue was with the oil pump but while the engine was out and apart, many other things were replaced:
Oil Pump
Oil Pump shaft
Oil Pump cover
Oil pump bearing
Thrust washers/bearings
Clutch line
Clutch Slave
Front timing cover
Chain Tensioners
Bushings
Gaskets, and probably some other stuff I'm forgetting.
While the engine was out, I had the clutch inspected and it was good to go. The clutch is kevlar and was done by a previous owner, I think in 2008. I do have receipts from the past from the previous owner that he was given but it does not cover from new. I also just had the car in to Josh at ECS in Sterling for a tuneup and valve adjustment. Car is running great. Does have a slight oil leak at the rear main seal but no rush to replace that seal until the engine needs to come out again for a clutch change. I am into this car for $30k in maintenance so far but besides the oil leak, and regular fluid changes, this car should be great for a while!!
During my ownership, I have also changed the wheels/tires, new Optima battery, new water temperature sensor, new water temperature gauge, added in jumper wires behind the dash to give more accurate gauge readings (common issue in Diablos), air filters, and possibly some other stuff which i'm forgetting. The car does have some nicks and cracks but nothing at all surprising considering it is almost 22 years old (I've never had anyone say anything bad about the car in that regard).

What mades this different from other Diablos...20/21 wheels setup off an LP640 running a 375 in the rear, an aftermarket front lift system, skid plate, 3M covering many areas on the car, aftermarket shift ****, SP Engineering air intakes, CD player, etc. The early Diablos are some of the fastest due to the loss of weight from not being AWD, not having power steering, etc. There are also no airbags and no anti lock brakes. A previous owner also had the catalytic converters gutted, so if you are in an area with smog check you will need to pick up some cats (high flow, etc).

PLEASE NOTE: I am not interested in trades of any kind, 100%. I am also in no rush to sell, would be nice, but if I don't get what I want then i'll just keep the car. I also HIGHLY recommend coming to see the car if you can.

Best way to reach me is email, uvagrad0406@yahoo.com. Thanks!

Here are a few more pictures. Email me if you'd like more or if there are any questions! I would also like to mention that I have taken this car to plenty of events in the north east area and there are many people I know on here, on Lamborghini forums and other forums who have seen the car and can vouch for it and me.

Do you have more interior and front trunk pics? Also some close up of the nose would be great.

Thanks! Also forgot to mention the oil cooler was replaced, new spark plugs during the engine out. Also it has a trickle charger in the drivers side rear wheel well!
