+The Coochmon Agree ton of work in it.

The Coochmon at this level... its a masterpiece !!!

+Phillip Irving Agree my video didn't do it much justice way better in person.

Not performance wise but the looks of it are amazing

Except for Nissan 300zx headlights

​@@joseguelen5979The real Diablo uses Nissan headlights....

@@lulz4lulz nop Nissan uses Lamborghini Diablo headlights

jason shuler The video doesn't do it justice way better in person.

kinda feel it's not needed, I mean no reason to pretend it's a v12 when it isn't.

Agree

Cindy McClarty Thanks for watch'n

VectorW8 It is way better in person.

Agree a lot of craftsmanship went into this build.

Nice congrads, huge effort just to these close to done.

Lamborghini Countach Replica thank you to watching my KZfaq

benzlick Agree took the time to do it rite!

benzlick why spend 14 years building a fake lambo ?

This so called fake lambo is not only immaculate but it also surpassed some of the original diablo has. This is an absolutely fine piece machinery.

Bull Winkle I'm talking about the fact that someone spent 14 years building a fake lambo instead of working on getting more money to buy real one lmaao

Why do you need to over analyze this. This was his pet project. Unless you were skipping over the video, he wanted to build a car. BUILD A CAR.!! I suggest you watch it again and hear why he built this lamborghini diablo replica. In fact, his version of the Diablo practically surpasses the real one. This builder obviously loved the challenge of building a car....even though he built a Lamborghini replica. The custom things he made for this lamborghini is absolutely superb. I bet if you put this replica against an authentic diablo in a car show, this replica would beat the authentic lambo hands down.

+munichs23mostwanted Thanks for the comments. You may want to check out this link to a video I did there are some Builders and resources at the end of the video to forums that are the commonplace nowadays to try and find builders kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hJOTaqequqywdXU.html

Yes, on occasion. Great guy plan on visiting him next time I'm out his way.

+ninpo21 sorry no its not I just enjoy sharing the car. If you want to look into getting one check out this video I did. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hJOTaqequqywdXU.html

She show is the Import Motor show at Carlisle, PA. However they have limited kit attendies now.

@@Replicas_Kits_or_Customs Thank you very much for your answer. Can you please tell me when there will be an exhibition this year or where one could see such beautiful replicas of different models?

jacob ledbetter Adrian is building just that you will see it in next week's video.

Thanks for your comment but what illusion shatters once the engine is started? I know it isn't a 12 cylinder but the exhaust is a very healthy rumble that tells everyone it is powerful and not a simple four or six cylinder. If I spent even more money and time I guess I could have had a 12 cylinder. I happen to like the "good old American V8". After all, I build a street rod to be driven and serviced right here is the USA. I'm happy. RT

I''m not trying to take anything away from your build at all, you've done a fantastic job and the car looks as good as a real Diablo, the vast majority will never know the difference between an american V8 and a V12 anyway so it doesn't matter that much. I've personally always loved the engine note of a V12 engine though and that's what i meant, just by looking at it when stationary it's very hard to tell the difference but once started you hear it right away. That's the thing though, a BMW V12 from the 800 series doesn't sound like a Lamborghini V12 and you would have issues getting the kind of power you have in yours from it without a twin turbo setup and barely even then (the sound would be altered aswell). While it would be very cool to use a real Murcielago engine or similar they cost somewhere between 25-50k $, very expensive but also much more complicated, not really an option imo. I would easily choose a car like Ken Imhoff's countach with its V8 and 180 degree headers over the same car with a BMW V12 tbh, it sounds amazing.

Sunedosa... Believe me, I'm not offended by your reply. I was just trying to find out what might have made my build better. You are right about the BMW V12 and even a real Lambo engine. I considered the 180* headers but that would open up a whole new "can-o-worms". YIKES! I went with the X-pipe because I was told that would be pretty close to the same, performance wise. And all things considered with as much horsepower I have, who really cares or knows what it will do. Besides, I probably will "baby" it. LOL In the end I figured it will sound like it sounds and so it does. These builds will always have compromises made to just be able to get them finished and working. I do give a lot of credit to those who build with a V12. That Mercedes V12 engine in Adrian's build looks fantastic. Adrian is a good guy and I will be following his progress. He owes me a ride. RT

Haha awesome, film it when it happens please :-)

Udo does but it costs close to $200k and will take a couple years.

@@Replicas_Kits_or_Customs is there a link? to see it

Think Ron says it best....It's not enough to buy one you have to build it. Your probably correct on the investment however in retirement you need to keep your mind and body busy. What better way to do both with something your passionate about. Most builders enjoy the journey not the driving but it is part of the journey.
