This 6.0-liter engine produced 540 horsepower, and was said to be faster than a Diablo, although this was never officially confirmed. The Modena-based company would begin actually selling the car in 1991, and by this point it was in direct competition with its spiritual offspring, the Diablo. The V16T had several advantages over the Lambo, but price was certainly not one of them. At a price of $300,000 in 1991 the V16T was about double the price of the Diablo, but without being double the car. The name Cizeta also didn't carry the same weight as Lamborghini, and in the end, just eight cars were produced before production shut down in 1995.
