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.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...
