For Sale 1991 Lamborghini Diablo

Thanks. Sorry I thought uncle Sam got a piece of it despite going to the state. Same difference to me

 

I'm trying to sell a car, if you don't like what you are reading, move on. I know what I paid for the car, and I know what I have. I am also not interested in reversing the market or be influenced in doing so. Any serious party should PM or call at the very least, but not challenge what I am posting. I think I know what I am doing, thank you.

 

This was for "tbuff", sorry:

I know what a "real" interested buyer is, thank you. And I am quite calm.

 

Still trying to figure out the "deception" part, but that's OK. Price just went up to $175K. I'm all about profit from now on. Welcome to my new world.

 

Wrong again. Not sure what game you are playing but I am actually enjoying it now.

 

Based on your previous comments I sense you couldn't afford a new microwave. I'm not worried I lost a sale here.

 

I think I found the issue here. If it is post #13, I didn't say that I paid $150K, I said if you make a $150K purchase at 8.1% you do the math, simply implying how much sales tax is involved on a large purchase. I rarely disclose what I pay for my cars because it is nobody's business, sorry if this post was misunderstood. On the flip side, I am entitled to ask whatever I want, regardless of what I paid. I was asking market value. End of story.

 

Post #7. Is that how you wanted to know about the car? Insinuating I'm unloading the car after 5 months when I've had it over a year? What was that about? I can't stand people that make their own assumptions. What if I had a son that needed treatment for cancer? What if I needed the cash to save my mom's house? I posted the car for sale, not interested in anything beyond that, only the car matters, and I will answer serious buyers questions about the car. My personal life has nothing to do with it.

 

I understand, but then why didn't you PM me again? It would have made more sense, and I would have remembered you if you indeed contacted me last year about this Diablo. But when I see questions like that out in the open it shows me other motives. Sorry if I took it this way, this is why PM's are the best way to communicate when looking to buy a car on this forum. It has worked for me on numerous occasions. In fact, I don't think I would even post anything out of fear someone else sees it and buys the car before me, I always get scared when I see more posts on a car I am interested in. Just my opinion.
As to the reasons, I think I stated them in my first post, I am blessed to have "too many" cars and I really don't drive this one often enough, plus my business could use some cash as well. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this Diablo, and I am not unloading it because it has issues or to make a profit. I welcome inspections if needed, the car is straight and solid. Thanks for the comments everyone.

 

Of course I have to believe that now and thanks for posting it, but I assure you at the time I inquired about the car with Roy it had been dropped to $140, or 139,900 (From an initial asking of $150). Reason I know this is because that was my max budget (140) . I wish I had seen that 136,888 price which would have given me a little more negotiating power and believe me, there wasn't much of it there. Too late now. LOL. As it turns out, I bought a great car from a great reputable guy, and there is no regret whatsoever. The reason I bought that car is because I knew who represented it and the fact that the last major was done in 2015, that was a big plus.
Going back to what I have in it with taxes and work done there is no profit even If I got my full asking of $150K, but I am not complaining, nor trying to recoup a loss, you can't buy what these cars do for you, there is no cash value there. I've owned 6 of them and I will die a very happy man.
Over the last 12 months I have done the usual stuff Diablos require, which include:

Alternator rebuild (common for early Diablos, they fail regularly, inevitable expense)
Battery (do at same time as alternator)
Clutch slave cylinder (common weakness on early Diablos, they are prone to leak).
Oil changes
Exhaust replacement with LOC unit. Must do if you own an Early Diablo, rear muffler is useless, designed to be a crumpler zone, heavy, totally useless large metal box. LOC unit makes Diablo breathe better, sound better, lighter, and more HP. It does trigger sensors/CEL lights but who cares.

In my opinion, other than the annual oil changes this car will need nothing for the next 5+ years. I would not hesitate driving it across the US, rain and all. Someone called and inquired about rust. I don't think there is anything that can rust on this car, it is mostly carbon kevlar and aluminum with a steel roof, super cool piece of artwork.

 

Very kind of you Joe. Sorry about the Mondials

My pleasure. Sorry again for being rude, I must have been on my period again.
I should point out that of the work done under my ownership, none of it was done by me, I couldn't even change a light bulb. LOL. I did however replace the tool kit leather straps and Gandini badge as they were showing some age, and I like the Diablo to look good in places you don't really look.
