Photo's from Fletch - 145 shots of this Orange Diablo 6.0 which was just sitting in the parking lot at my work.

The new Diablo sets a new benchmark for high performance sports cars. The Lamborghini Diablo 6.0 is newly redesigned for 2001 and features both new technology and a new design.

It features a new body design with a new front bumper and spoiler and wider fenders to house the wider front and rear tires. The entire body is carbon fibre except the doors which for safety reasons are aluminium and the roof is made out of steel. The chassis has been reinforced with carbon fibre inserts increasing the torsional rigidity of the structure.

The new Diablo is propelled down the road by a newly designed 6 litre V12 engine. The new engine produces an output of 550 hp at 7100 rpm and 620 Nm of torque at 5500 rpm. This is capable of launching the Diablo from 0-60 mph in less than 4 seconds and can reach speeds of over 200 mph. It also utilizes the 4WD transmission based on the well proven "VT" (Viscous Traction) system which is used in the previous Diablo Roadster and VT Coupe.

The newly designed interior is aimed at combining sports style with elegance and comfort. The instruments have been redesigned for better visibility. The interior features a combination of elegant hand-stitched leather and sporty carbon fibre and aluminium. Airbags for driver and passanger are standard. An Alpine sound system with a 6 disc cd changer keeps the music playing when your not listening to the sweet sound of the 6 litre engine.
