The 2001 Lamborghini Diablo GTR, one of the most exclusive and audacious track-focused Lamborghinis ever built, and one is now up for sale. Born from the already extreme Diablo GT, the GTR pushed the envelope even further with radical weight reduction and racing-specific enhancements. Produced in an ultra-limited run of just 30 units, this track-only marvel is powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine delivering a staggering 590 horsepower and 472 lb-ft of torque. Designed to dominate the racetrack, it features a lightweight, carbon-fiber-intensive construction paired with a racing-spec gearbox and rear-wheel drive, making it an unparalleled driving machine.
