The Diablo was destined to become the worthy heir of the renowned Miura and Countach. Wide, low, and futuristic, it linked the rudimentary supercar of years past to the hypercars of today. The definitive poster car of the 1990's, many remember racing the Diablo to its then-incomprehensible top speed of 202 mph in the original Need for Speed video games. Today it has become a generational legend, as did its predecessors.
