Lamborghini Diablo: Supercar Teardown

We may earn a commission from links on this page.

We're finally featuring a bull in our Supercar Teardown series, where we crack open supercars to peer inside. Luckily, the Lamborghini Diablo's packed with a gorgeous 5.7-liter V12. Let's take a closer look.

While the Ferraris featured here (the F40, F50 and 360) have all been some pretty clean examples, this Diablo does not fall under that category, requiring a full rebuild of all 12 cylinders. In these shots you can really see the Lamborghini tractor lineage due to the just-get-it-done appearance of most of the engine's components. Yes, it's an exotic, but not in the hermetically-sealed Ferrari sort of way. We can definitely appreciate that.
