About the Diablo 5.7 V12 (492 Hp) RWD

First Lamborghini over 200 mph. The original Diablo put 492 hp through the rear wheels only, hit 325 km/h in period tests, and did it with a 5.7-liter V12 that redlined at 7,000 rpm. Rear-drive, mid-engine, no electronic nannies. The car would bite you if you got careless with the throttle mid-corner, and plenty of owners found that out the hard way. Raw in a way that nothing from Maranello was anymore.
