Lamborghini Diablo - Diablo GT 1999

As much as the SV (Sport Volce) was already a near race-ready version of the Diablo, the limited run GT model went even further. A modified version of the V12 engine, bored out to 6.0 litres and producing 575 horsepower (430 kW) powered the vehicle, while enlarged brakes, an improved and lower riding suspension and owner-specific gearing that was customized by the factory were other mechanical changes. More aggressive bodywork with flared fenders and wider wheels were introduced. Only 80 units were produced in total and the vehicle was sold officially only in Europe.

The 1999 Diablo GT was dubbed the fastest production car in the world; its newer design and engine (which ultimately influenced the restyling changes for the 6.0 Diablo) were the most technically advanced of any Diablo yet:

new Lamborghini V12, 6 litre engine
new design of the body
wider front track
improved chassis and suspension
reduced weight
