You could buy Donald Trump’s Lamborghini Diablo
If you’re looking for the perfect birthday gift, you’re in luck: Donald Trump’s 1997 Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadster will soon be up for auction. A Diablo for the demon politician, it’s hard to find a vehicle that can so perfectly match its former owner.
Special order
This exceptional car is special, having been specially ordered by Trump through a privileged relationship with Lamborghini. It stands out with its Le Mans blue paint, which was not officially available in 1997, and a “Donald Trump 1997 Diablo” plate on the driver’s door, personalizing the car.
In his hands for 5 years
Ordered new by Trump, he owned it until the summer of 2002 before passing it on to two other owners, totaling only 24,836 miles (39,970 km). However, a CarFax report highlights a possible mileage inconsistency or rollback.

One-of-a-kind
Despite this controversy, this car represents a piece of automotive history. Equipped with a 5.7-liter V12 engine in a mid-mounted position, producing 492 hp (367 kW / 499 PS) and 430 lb-ft (582 Nm) of torque, it features a five-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive. It reaches 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds and has a top speed of 202 mph.
An unconditional sale
Aside from these details, the auction offers the car with no reserve, accompanied by its documentation, tool bags, and a cover. The overall condition seems excellent, with almost new paint and wheels.
The two-tone interior includes an analog clock, digital air conditioning, an Alpine audio system, and an H-pattern gear lever, adding a touch of exclusivity.
Although there is no official estimate, this car is one of the 132 units produced for the United States between 1997 and 1999, making it a rarity even before its association with Trump.
