dougal200 Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 Well not quite. I just got back from a trip in Japan. Didn't manage to spot any z32s but I was lucky enough to ride the Shinkansen, I was quite surprised when I took a photo of the front, look familiar to anyone? Quote
Alic Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 The diablo's headlights are so similar that when you order replacement headlights for it, they come from nissan. Quote
Mondo Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 The diablo's headlights are so similar that when you order replacement headlights for it, they come from nissan. You mean that the Diablo actually uses Z32 headlights, but Lamborghini put a strip across the very top to obscure where it says "Nissan" on the glass... ;) Quote
Alic Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 Yes I just read that, Nissan also used the headlight in the r390 race car. Quote
AndrewG Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 You mean that the Diablo actually uses Z32 headlights, but Lamborghini put a strip across the very top to obscure where it says "Nissan" on the glass... ;) According to the Diablo owner I meet at the NEC Classic car show Lamborghini have their own stock of new Z32 headlights. He also mentioned that the carbon fiber strip added by Lamborghini to hide the Nissan logo cost £300 a pair to buy! Quote She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went - Simply irresistible.

I wonder what that white looking strip/packet looking thingy does, in the photo? Quote
Osty1 Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 Isn't that just the reflection from the outer chrome ring possibly reflecting the ceiling??? Quote
RichardS Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 That's pretty cool - almost like the Bullet Train is paying homage to one of their country's finest cars....:bow: Quote I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

Alic Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) [ATTACH=CONFIG]93046[/ATTACH] That was on CT this morning, i had to argue over the comments of everyone slating it :P :wacko: (CT is CarThrottle which is sort of a car social media site) Edited January 4, 2016 by Alic Quote
dutchgold92 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 [ATTACH=CONFIG]93046[/ATTACH] Saw that not long ago... Strange that they took the old-style headlights then they did the Diablo facelift in '99. Quote
