This is the 1993 Lamborghini Diablo VT by German vehicle refiner Vittorio Strosek Autodesign GmbH (Strosek), chassis number LA12914. This example originally started life out as a European-market example and has since been treated to a Strosek conversion, now being finished in a beautiful light blue/green color over a dark blue leather interior. The first ever Strosek-converted Diablo made its global debut at the 1994 Geneva Motor Show. After working for one year under the iconic German aerodynamicist and industrial designer Luigi Colani, Vittorio Strosek officially founded his own company, Studio Automobildesign in 1971. By the year 1982, the companies name was changed to be Strosek Car Design and the primary focus became Porsche tuning and conversions. As the years went by Strosek began to also work on other various brands, one of them being Italian manufacturer Lamborghini. The Diablo model in specific was produced by Lamborghini from 1990-2001 (2,884 produced) and it’s famously known as being the first production Lamborghini to hit 200mph. This specific variant, the Diablo VT was the first all-wheel-drive supercar Lamborghini ever made. The VT was first introduced in 1993 and differentiated itself from the standard Diablo in numerous ways, most notably, with the addition of all-wheel-Drive. Some improvements of the VT included new front air intakes below the driving lamps to improve brake cooling, four-piston brake calipers, power steering, and minor engine refinements. Of all the Diablos produced only about 400-500 of them were VT coupes like this one. Strosek went above and beyond when it came modification, and for the Diablo model in specific in many cases the company added rounder front and rear bumpers, removed the pop-up headlights, added a new rear wing as well as changed the location of the rear-view mirrors.
How many made? It’s believed possibly less than 10 Diablos were modified by Strosek
