Someone Just Paid $1.1 Million For Donald Trump’s Lamborghini
A classic car buyer has doubled-down on Donald’s old Diablo.
A 1997 Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadster that was originally owned by Donald Trump was sold at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale auction on Saturday for $1.1 million.
The same car was sold on Ebay in 2016 with the highest price posted before the sale at $460,000.
That was about a $200,000 premium for the model at the time.
