Funny thing, that headlight as spare part was cheaper to get from lamborghini than from Nissan!

At the factory’s 40th anniversary I remember seeing a big tourist bus departing and by coincidence noticed its taillights ... yep, Diablo taillights

as shown in this thread. They looked good on the bus too.

Damn, we missed each other on the 40th event, it was too hectic, the only person from US I was able to talk to was Jack Rydell...

well, with a lot of cars copying the designs from each other, i think borrowing a piece or two is ok. nevertheless, the diablo lamps and lights look better than the ones on 300zx....who cares.....its not like mbz s class and lexus ls totally copying the bmw seven series inside and out.

Sorry about the language (I presume we're all adults here) but this is like saying: 'great tits, but the nipples look familiar'. Know what I mean?

I suppose this speaks more to the genius of the 300ZX than to the lambo.

Lamborghini is the greatest car manfactuarer in the entire world. They are more then cappable of making there own lights. Look at the gallardo for instance.

This isnt news you really think after all these years NO ONE new!!

WRONG....It is to cover up the WORD Nissan that is stamped into the glass mold at the top edge of the light!!!!

NOW that is engineering!!

That is new at least to me, very interesting Roy.

Jack Riddell is a good friend of mine, so there is a chance that we actually met without realizing it. I am sure we’ll knowingly meet in the future.

Wasn't the automatic in the Espada a Chrysler Torqueflite?

It would seem that would help bring the maintenance cost down for the tranny. Anybody have one they'd like to share thoughts on this?
