Color & Provenance
Recorded by the International Lamborghini Registry as a one‑of‑one Verde Hydra Metallic over Avorio Lilium pairing, this final‑year VT 6.0 represents the model at its most mature. The late‑series refresh under Audi stewardship improved structural polish while preserving the Diablo’s charismatic analog character.
Design & Refinements
Led by Luc Donckerwolke’s late‑series design revision, the VT 6.0 adopted cleaner surfacing, integrated front fascia work, and subtle aero changes— a measured evolution that bridged raw early Diablos and the more resolved Murciélago era.
Highlights
The 6.0‑liter V12 delivers around 543 hp and 457 lb‑ft, paired to all‑wheel drive and late‑series chassis updates. Presented with comprehensive documentation, this specification showcases the Diablo’s apex while retaining the tactile immediacy that defines Lamborghini’s pre‑electrification flagships.
