"The Pregunta began life as a Diablo, but its transformation was anything but subtle. French coachbuilder Carrosserie Heuliez-Torino was commissioned to craft a completely new carbon fiber body, drawing inspiration from the Dassault Rafale fighter jet. The connection was more than superficial: the car was finished in the same matte dark grey paint used on the aircraft, creating an appearance that felt more military prototype than production-ready supercar."
"Its lines were a dramatic departure from the flowing curves of the Diablo, favoring sharp angles, aggressive intakes, and a more futuristic stance. The rear featured exposed mechanicals and a minimalistic tail treatment that pushed Lamborghini design into uncharted territory. It was the kind of concept that looked like it had rolled straight out of a sci-fi storyboard - bold, polarizing, and utterly unforgettable."
Created amid Lamborghini's late-1990s ownership shifts from Chrysler to investment firms and ultimately Volkswagen Group, the 1998 Pregunta is a one-off aviation-inspired concept destined for auction with an asking price above $3 million. The car began as a Diablo before French coachbuilder Carrosserie Heuliez-Torino fitted a new carbon-fiber body inspired by the Dassault Rafale fighter jet and finished in matte dark grey. The design favors sharp angles, aggressive intakes, exposed rear mechanicals, and a minimal tail, projecting a military-prototype, sci-fi aesthetic. The cockpit splits driver and passenger zones, features aviation-style seats with four-point harnesses, and includes advanced dashboard technology such as onboard GPS navigation.
