I took a Lamborghini Diablo for a drive today

Awesome good fortune on my part, I'm in a strange town on business, 1000 miles from home and I've made an arrangement to meet a fellow NSX owner whom I've only known online until now. I get settled in my hotel and get his address & directions and jump in my car headed his way. The last line of his directions is "you'll see my NSX and some other cars". I know he has a white NSX with a black roof so off I go.

When I pull up to his place, I couldn't help but notice there was bright yellow Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0 in his driveway.


To make a long story short, he's car sitting for a friend and we got around to taking it for a spin. At some point during that spin, he asked if I wanted to drive. No let me ask you this, how many answers are there to that question?

So I drove the beast maybe 15 miles - about half back roads and half highway. I took it pretty easy (duh) but still found myself at 90 mph without realizing how I got there. While he was driving he did several pulls through 1st & 2nd. It has head-snapping response and the sound was sweeeeettt.

Here be me.


The seats were supportive, but hard. I think my NSX seats are better. I wasn't crazy about the cluster, either. I want a bigger tach.


This car is carbon. fiber. everywhere. Everywhere.

That is just badass.


Gotta get some NSX love in. I danced with the Diablo, but I took the NSX back to my room.


This car has 120K miles on it and is perfect from end to end.


That's all. Just had to brag a little.
