It’s been a while since we last saw a Lamborghini Diablo in the headlines, but we think this cool-as-hell one-off presented by Super Veloce Racing is worthy of the spotlight. That’s because it’s one of the last all-original examples of the diabolic bull on the planet, offered in concours-ready condition with several factory-fitted upgrades, including a unique “Ice Blue” paint job straight from the auto show circuit. Any collector would be highly fortunate to get this gorgeous Lambo into their garage, and now that it’s going up for sale, its exclusivity could be all yours – if you have the means, that is.

The Diablo is one of Lamborghini’s most iconic models, with a production run that spanned over a decade. Originally launched in 1990, the Diablo was the first Lambo road car to tip the 200-mph mark, boasting a rear/mid-mounted 5.7-liter V-12 producing nearly 500 horsepower at the rear wheels by way of a five-speed manual gearbox.

Over the years, the Diablo received numerous revisions and special editions, including the SV model in 1995. The “super veloce” designation is a nod to the Miura SV, and as such, the Diablo SV came equipped with more horsepower, adjustable aerodynamics, tweaked styling, and larger brakes.

As you might expect, this particular example gets all that and more, but when it comes to what makes it special, the devil is in the details.

What makes the Lamborghini Diablo SV by Super Veloce Racing so special

The wallpaper-worthy vehicle before you is from 1998, the final model year before the Diablo received its next-gen facelift. It was first seen in public at the 1999 British Motor Show, and was initially painted yellow. However, before it hit the limelight, Lambo re-sprayed it with a shot of light blue metallic, giving it a jaw-slackening pearlescent finish wholly exclusive to this particular example.

The original owner purchased the car directly from the show floor, and interestingly, also bought the rights to the car’s unique “Ice Blue” hue. Super Veloce Racing claims it’s the only Lambo finished in “Ice Blue” in the U.K.

Along with its stunning exterior color, this SV gets a slew of OEM improvements that add even more distinction. In profile, we find SE side skirts mounted to the exterior, while the cockpit is bathed in two-tone Alcantara (blue and grey) with blue contrast stitching. The seats receive hand-embroidered SV logos, while anyone fortunate enough to sit in the driver’s position will enjoy a carbon-fiber gear lever. Meanwhile, a high-performance stainless steel exhaust bellows the V-12’s tune.

The car comes complete with full documentation from both of the two previous owners, including complete service records and history files. All of the original accessories are present and correct, including both keys and even the Lambo-branded umbrella. Less than 7,000 miles are on the odometer.

If you’re interested in adding this exceptional SV to your collection, Super Veloce Racing is taking applications now. No official price is given, but if I were to hazard a guess, I’d say a ballpark figure of $400,000 is reasonable.
