Help Make This LEGO Lamborghini Diablo a Reality

We love LEGO Ideas and this Lamborghini Diablo replica might be our favorite yet.

Now seeking supporters, the LEGO Lamborghini Diablo was created by Dani87 and features opening scissor doors, hood, and trunk, along with a fully detailed engine, and dash with realistic stickers. Other details on the creation include pop-up headlights or clear-glass headlights, ability to transform into a coupe or a roadster, different rims, chrome parts, and detailed stickers throughout.

The creator said this LEGO version is based on the later GT model, powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine.

If you’ve never heard of LEGO Ideas, the program gives LEGO enthusiasts the opportunity to see their creations become actual products. A project has to reach 10,000 supporters in order for it to qualify for review, done by a board of set designers and marketing representatives. Although LEGO admits it can’t make everything, every project in review does get a fair shot.

If a product gets approved in the review process, then the creator gets to give input to professional LEGO designers to finalize the product. Once it is completed, it goes to the factory and then it’s shipped around the world and released for sale. The original creator, in this case Dani87, would be featured in set materials and would receive a royalty on sales.

So if you want to add a LEGO Lamborghini Diablo to your collection, support the project here.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
