Yuckity. I don't get the Diablo. It has neither the full-bore impracticality and ridiculousness of the previous Countach and Miura, nor the build quality and all-around performance of the later Murcielago.
Oh, and Chrysler didn't like the original Marcello Gandini design, so they had their in-house designers redo it. Exotic!

Honestly, I kind of like the Diablo.
The Countach looks like something that fell to Earth from outer-space. The Diablo looks like a Countach that has been reverse-engineered and thoroughly worked over by Giacinto Ghia. It's sleeker and more refined, but still hints at the fact that there's probably a dark-matter reactor under the bonnet.

I still like the countach more, but I have a soft spot for the diablo in my heart. For exactly the reason stated above (earlier need for speed games). Plus, when you are a kid and you think sports car, one of three cars comes to mind (sorry F1 is not one of them, I didn't know about it till 2003)...the countach/lamborghini, a ferrari, and a porsche.
