We must start by saying that my Versus model is not recent so it could be less detailed if compared to their latest builds. One of the first most obvious characteristics is that the painting: excellent! The color, then, is sublime probably because of its particularity. The interior is very precise and the thickness of the coating is not high. There are also carbon fibre decals with the mesh a bit oversized but still good. Excellent quality and transparency of the acetates. As for the level of details in the interior, we are not certain at the levels of BBR but, let's say, that the model looks more like an MR. Very clean anyway. They left me a bit confused with the wheels and ride of the model. The rims are a bit plastic-ish, but maybe it's just an impression of mine. Tires are slick (!!!) and with no decals on the tire shoulders (we have already got used to it). The ventilated discs look too much "chromed" and have disproportionate holes. Calipers are fine. The ride is too low and I've noticed it's not only a problem of my model but it appears also on other Diablo 6.0 SE models built by Versus, APM or MWS. I'll try to correct it with some other small changes. The base and the perspex case are really well done. It comes in a cardboard box. There's a sticker reporting the PPG code of the paint (Eklipsis Brown).
As for the car itself, this was the very last Diablo ever produced before the advent of the Murciélago. This particular version is called SE (Special Edition) and was produced in only 40 units, 20 of which were painted in Elios Gold and the other 20 in Eklipsis Brown. These two colors wanted to simbolize sunrise and sunset. At last, a photo of the model in Elios Gold:
