Default Lamborghini Diablo GTR
As announced by StMoritzer (see http://www.motorworld.net/forum/showthread.php?t=33799), we went today to take some pics of a Diablo GTR.

This car, a limited edition from R. Affolter, was nicely brought to us by Mr. Reust from "autoload Reust AG", close to Zurich...thank you very much :good:

Just seeing the car arriving was for me a great emotion...WHAT A SOUND!! :shock: AND THE LOOK!! :shock: :shock:

Unfortunately, I had some pb with my camera and half of the pics were taken in low res ops: . But thanks to StMoritzer, always very professional, you will get soon some more hi-res... and a video!! 8)

For the moment, here are some of my pics...enjoy











On some pics, I tried to slide in my speedy...just for laugh

Some more to come soon...from StMoritzer!

Thanks for the pics - very nice!

From the front it doesn't look too bad, but the reat is horrible IMO. Give me a standard Diablo anyday!

Actually not bad in grey/silver, but still not my cup of tea I guess.. an original Diablo is so nice.. I always wondered why Affolter felt the need to develop their GTRs

Thanks for the pics!

What are the performance numbers for that? Considering they butchered a good looking car - it better be 70mph faster and 3 seconds quicker and 400lbs lighter than a stock Diablo...

Otherwise it's just a rice... I mean pasta...

I quite like this kind of "tuning"

this color fits it well, not like that lime green I've seen before (wasn't it Strosek? )

nice pics, together with your Speedy :good:

looking forward to see moritzers pics aswell!!!

as far as I know, this GTR is not more powerfull than a "normal" diablo. In fact, this is a SV with a bodykit, with the 5.7L engine.

But I find it really agressive and nasty...I presonally like it very much!!

But like everything, it is just a matter of taste

Yes, your are right for both, slight chip tuning and free exhaust...but you don't need to look at the spec for the exhaust...just listen !!
