Default Got a high-speed ride in a Diablo
I spent the week at our other facility in UK. Last night, one of the founders (who owns a Lamborghini Diablo) took me for a cruise up the express way. He said it had the higher HP option 500+HP. I couldn't believe how fast he got to 160 MPH from 60 without doing any shifting at all. He just returned from a Cannonball run through France and Italy where he topped her out at a tad over 200 MPH. I guess you can expect a lot from a $260K automobile. I must say, it was quite a ride.
