Inside, features carpet with Diablo GT imprint in yellow, two individual seats with leather and velvet upholstery combined, and the seats separated by a centre console (partially-covered with carbon fiber material), manual gearbox in metallic and a simple designed steering wheel to complete the design style of the interior cabin.

In fact, the model was touted as one of the fastest supercars during that period.
