1998 Lamborghini Diablo SV Coupe

All Lamborghini automobiles were initially rear-wheel drive until the arrival of the all-wheel drive VT (for Viscous Traction) in 1993. The SV arrived in 1995 with more power, less weight, rear-wheel drive, and a variant-specific body kit and graphics. Modifications to the engine boosted output by 40 additional horsepower and around 200 fewer pounds, resulting in the SV being one of the world's fastest production cars of the era. Zero to sixty mph was accomplished in less than four seconds, and top speed was achieved at 208 mph.

Lamborghini built 346 examples of the Diablo SV, and this example is finished in Giallo Fly (Fly Yellow) and rides on multipiece OZ Racing wheels. The 5,707CC DOHC V12 engine has Electronic Multi-Point fuel injection and produces 523 horsepower at 7,100 RPM. It has a five-speed manual gearbox, four-wheel disc brakes, and a double-wishbone suspension.

This Lamborghini was given a major service in 2018 with the work totaling in excess of $20,000. It has the correct factory Alpine-supplied stereo system with an Alpine 3DE receiver, an embossed leather folio, tool kit, bulb and fuse holder, spare belts, tire inflator, and original, factory-supplied gloves and leather carry bag. The front Pirelli PZERO Asimmetrico Tires measure 235/35ZR18 and the rears are 335/30ZR18.
