Cars of that era all had a combination of straight vertical panels and then smooth flowing curves. It was a case of form having to follow function. The metallurgy ability at that time only allowed for gentle curves to be formed under mass production conditions. Advances in metal composition, more advanced moulds, better forming techniques arising from CAD/3-D Modelling/CAM give us today's complex shaped body panels. Just look at the complex angles and curves on a single panel of the BMW 5 series designed by Chris Bangle in the fifth generation E60 model Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story behind this unusual display piece starts decades ago as the “factory prototype” was used to promote the then new Diablo VT. Given that it’s a show car, the vehicle was built to scale and features body panels that are interchangeable with those on the production model. The vehicle also has a full interior, but it’s missing a few key components – namely its engine and transmission. After buying the Italian automaker “Audi went about revamping the Lamborghini factory, and, in 2001, opened the doors on the factory museum, smack dab in the old factory itself.” While the museum was filled with an impressive collection of cars, the “far white wall was missing something.” As a result, they decided to mount this Diablo on it. 2 hours ago, Toeknee_33 said: Very rare, want to buy one also cannot. There is none for sale in SGCM. i40 wagon was sold for a while here, when Komoco supplied the i40 sedan to Comfort and City Cab. I guess many were deregister to recover the high COE rebate. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
