"Collectors and supercar enthusiasts are about to have a rare opportunity to get their hands on one of the most exclusive Lamborghinis ever built. The 1993 Lamborghini Diablo Evolution GTR - a limited-edition model customized by Swiss Lamborghini importer Roland Affolter - is set to cross the block at Broad Arrow's Zurich auction on November 1. With only ten examples ever produced, the Evolution GTR is a piece of Lamborghini history, representing an era when bespoke performance modifications pushed the already outrageous Diablo even further."
"At its core, the Evolution GTR takes everything that made the Diablo a legend and dials it up for maximum drama. Affolter's modifications included a noticeably larger rear spoiler, a pronounced roof scoop, and rounded headlights that distinguish it from the standard Diablo of the early 1990s. These changes give the car an even more aggressive stance, turning an already attention-grabbing silhouette into something that looks ready for the racetrack - even when parked."
"Roland Affolter, known as Lamborghini's official importer for Switzerland during the early 1990s, had a unique opportunity to create something special. His take on the Diablo was more than cosmetic. By sending the power exclusively to the rear wheels, the Evolution GTR offers a purer, more driver-focused experience compared to the standard all-wheel-drive layout. This change delivers a raw connection between the car and its driver, demanding skill while rewarding those who can master its power."
The 1993 Lamborghini Diablo Evolution GTR is a ten-example limited-edition model modified by Swiss importer Roland Affolter and scheduled to auction at Broad Arrow's Zurich sale on November 1. Affolter altered aerodynamics and styling with a larger rear spoiler, a pronounced roof scoop, and rounded headlights for a more aggressive stance. The car was converted to rear-wheel drive for a purer, driver-focused experience while retaining the 5.7-liter naturally aspirated V12 that produces around 485 horsepower and a visceral exhaust note. This configuration emphasizes analog handling and rewards skilled drivers. This example features a Viola exterior and Blue Alcantara interior.
