Doug DeMuro gives the 1998 Lamborghini Diablo SV a mixed review (46/100), praising it as an iconic exotic that's more thrilling to drive than expected. The car excels in performance with 510 hp from its V12 engine and upgraded brakes, plus distinctive design elements like roof scoops and the now-desirable "SV" lettering that have aged well. However, the cabin feels compromised by cost-cutting measures—a tacky dashboard bulge housing the airbag, an arcade-game steering wheel, and dated interior plastics that creak and rattle—while the over-boosted power steering undermines the driving experience. This is a car for collectors and enthusiasts who value raw exotic appeal and historical significance over modern comfort and refinement.
