Trump's Lamborghini is for sale...again

This time it's on eBay, and there are no apparent takers.

One would think a Lambo Diablo is a popular ticket to collector cars. While that's true to a point, used ones go for less money than expected, but because because people who drive them don't want seen in yesterday's design they lose value.

Therefore, this Diablo's entire value is based on Donald Trump's celebrity status. If he wins the election, it could soar as a sitting president's car, but if he loses it's worth a typical used car Blue Book price.

A year ago it was offered privately for $300k. It didn't sell then so now as the candidate he's shooting for $400k+. With only two days left, no one at all seems willing to speculate:
