Painted in a one-of-one special Blu Le Mans color, the car was customized to include a door plaque that stated “Donald Trump 1997 Diablo.” Only 132 Diablo VT’s were made between 1997 and 1999.

Trump sold the Diablo VT in 2002 with dead on 15,000 miles on the odometer, meaning that it was actually driven, and quite often, in his ownership period.
