2000 Diablo VT Roadster Replica Roadster

John Cena’s Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadster Replica is now available at Gulf Coast Exotic Auto. ** Signed by John Cena ** Only 43 Miles on the Build ** V12 ** This stunning replica of the iconic Lamborghini Diablo VT roadster was commissioned by Cena in the early 2000s, with the project spanning nearly 20 years before its completion in 2024. Built to exacting standards, this unique vehicle features a fiberglass body finished in metallic blue, mounted on a custom chassis, and powered by a 5.0-liter BMW V12 engine paired with a Porsche-sourced five-speed manual transaxle. Inspired by the design work of Marcello Gandini, the replica boasts restyled elements true to the VT model, such as enlarged intakes and signature scissor doors. Its aggressive look is complemented by 18" polished alloy wheels, black Lamborghini center caps, Pirelli P Zero Asymmetric tires, Brembo disc brakes with white calipers, and a body-color removable roof panel. The exterior also features fixed composite headlights, fog lights, a vented engine cover, a rear spoiler, and quad exhaust outlets, embodying the raw, exotic appeal of the original Diablo. Inside, the fixed-back bucket seats are upholstered in white leather with black piping, with a color-matched dash, center console, and door panels. Modern touches include Vintage Air climate control, a touchscreen infotainment system, a reverse-view camera, power windows, carbon-fiber accents, and a gated shifter. The Diablo-style dashboard houses Lamborghini-branded VDO gauges, including a 260-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer, while a leather-wrapped steering wheel completes the high-performance feel. The digital odometer shows just 33 miles, reflecting the distance covered since the project’s completion. The 5.0-liter BMW V12 engine, reportedly sourced from a 1988 BMW 750iL, is fitted with a Fuel Tech ECU and engine wiring harness, delivering power to the rear wheels through the Porsche five-speed transaxle. The power steering components come from a 2000 Camaro, and braking is handled by ventilated C5 Corvette disc brakes. This meticulous build is backed by a comprehensive book of component literature. Cena recently discussed the project on the Bring a Trailer podcast, humorously describing it as his “worst financial decision,” with an estimated $500,000 spent over two decades.
