this has been done before. If i remember rightly, if that photo had been taken from a different angle it would have included an almost equally appalling Gold Diablo in the background.

Yeah, you're right. One of the other pics has a gold car (wouldn't have guessed it's another Diablo, but could be very possible) in the background. Have you got any information about the owner of that car and the terrible events that occurred during his childhood and made him lose every bit of common sense and automotive taste? Or is it just that his own kids started using crayons on the car and he said "Not bad, let's hire a professional to finish that job"?

The "Art" Diablo has been posted before. someone mentioned that it resembled an experiment in car styling a few years back when several artists were given motors to muck around with, with similar results.

I remember seeing an article about this in a magazine years ago. I seem to remember a BMW M1 in white with the same styling as this poor Lamborghini. This is driving me mad now, somone post the details of this event, pleeeeese. If only to hope that it might prevent the same thing happening ever again.

As for the gold Diablo. Please note that it originates from South America. Owned by a long and loyal customer of Senior Escobar perhaps?

I'll probably get killed for this, but I think the Coatl looks amazing.

And the McLaren tuned engine with additional goodies...if only I had the money...
