Eccentrica Makes its Debut in the Middle East

11 May 2024
  • What are the technical innovations and enhancements of the Eccentrica?

Pupil of Fate Motors, the Middle East’s largest luxury car showroom based in Dubai, UAE, proudly announces the exclusive debut of “Eccentrica”, the restomod based on the 1990 Lamborghini Diablo, crafted by the renowned Eccentrica team. This unveiling marks a significant milestone as this exclusive car makes its first appearance in the region, following its highly acclaimed global introduction.

The Lamborghini Diablo, a symbol of high-speed and artistic design, has been re-envisioned by Eccentrica to combine timeless aesthetics with modern performance enhancements. This exclusive model arrives at Pupil of Fate Motors after sensational showcases in the UK, USA, and Japan.

The Pupil of Fate Motors showroom is now home to a masterpiece of automotive reengineering that merges the nostalgic allure of the Diablo with groundbreaking Eccentrica enhancements. It is the chosen venue for Eccentrica's introduction to the Middle East, aligning perfectly with UAE's innovative spirit and luxurious standards.

The Eccentrica benefits from a first-time-ever V12 restomod process led by Emanuel Colombini, a visionary entrepreneur and Car collector with deep ties to the automotive legacy. Featuring a naturally aspirated V12 engine, custom-tailored interiors of leather and alcantara, and revolutionary design tweaks like its iconic 'pop-down' headlights, this car is tailored for enthusiasts seeking a blend of performance, nostalgic driving emotions and exclusivity.

Emanuel Colombini, Founder of Eccentrica, shared his passion for the project, “Reimagining the Diablo was not just about reviving the car but enhancing it to meet the sophistication of today’s technology while maintaining the essence that made it legendary. Bringing this vision to Pupil of Fate Motors showcases our commitment to excellence and our belief in the unique luxury market of Dubai and the United Arab Emirates.”

To further elevate this exclusive offering, Eccentrica has announced that only 19 Lamborghini Diablo donor cars to date will experience the restomod. Each purchase includes the exclusive 'Eccentrica Esperienza,' inviting buyers to Milan and San Marino to choose their car's configurations directly with Emanuel Colombini and witness its assembly alongside the engineers. This unique experience fosters a community of enthusiasts who share Emanuel's passion, providing more than just ownership - it offers a sense of belonging in a family of collectors who have deeply engaged in the vehicle's journey from conception to completion.
