They look great but here is a comparison....... Take the steering of a 1978 small front wheel John Deer Tractor then paint all the windows on your car and cut out a 6"x12" window in the back to see out of. Now put a pirate patch over your left eye and now you have the visibility down. Now turn your heat on high in the summer and you have the temp. of the car down. Last but not least the clutch takes both feet and if you need to stop you have to push so hard you will be about 4 inches out of the seat. Other than that they are the best! They look so great though.

Ive had 2 Diablos and they are nowhere near as difficult or as bad to drive as you say.. unless you are weaker than my 100lb 5ft tall wife who never complained...

Also the pearl Sv is not the Victoria Secret car.

If you're talking about a Countach you're on the right track, but
nothing could be further from the truth if you're talking about a late model Diablo. I say late model because i have never driver an a pre-98 Diablo.
Let's see, it has power steering, brakes are Brembo's and work very very well, air conditioning is freezing, car is so wide inside you could probably seat a third person (preferably petite female
) on the hump, adjustable suspension (4 settings, from soft to indy car brick). Clutch is not that bad at all. 6 o'clock visibility is good. Only problem some people would have is with the right side. This can eaily be solved by changing the mirror glass. Of course you can't compare the technology to the new lambos. But i know which car i would rather be driving.
