Lamborghini Countach

by **2dimes** on Fri Nov 09, 2018 12:36 pm

I figured we need a thread to post about the Lamborghini Countach in.

It sounds like a euphemism.

First picture and you are out.
Almost feel like asking you to go f*ck yourself!!!!!!

The countach is the most beautifull car of all times, you ruin this thread posting the most horrible example possible, a 25th anniversary with US specs.

Wasn't it enough to disrespect this car in the wolf of wall street with that tasteless version? f*ck anybody who would dare post a 25th anniversary model again.

The only good thing about the 25th anniversary is that it was created by Horacio Pagani who would never have made his own company without it.

Anyways... lp500 or 5000qv all the way. With or without the wing, it's equally gorgeous. Only liked it with the wing as a kid but I ended up loving both. For colours, white, red, black in no particular order. Special mention to silver and yellow. No other colour is acceptable unless proven otherwise.

The entry scene in Rainman is the hottest car porn I've seen in my life. Perfect version and perfect colours for the most beautiful car ever.

They are sexy and iconic. I hear, however, they are an absolute bitch to drive. You ever driven one Frenchie?

Damn near every kid I knew had a countach poster growing up, including me :lol:

Saw one for sale, a 76, for like 1.2 mill. The 89's are readily available and appear to be in the mid 300s. Damn things hold their value and will always have a following.

I was 11 when they came out and they were the SHIT!! LOL

you are that old? the first production countach was from 74 but I'm pretty sure the concept car was way older than that.

I remember like 12 years ago I saw Keke Rosberg's countach for sale for 74 000€ in Monaco in mint condition , in white. I had that kind of money had I invested it all in my childhood dream car, which would've been really stupid.

NOT. it now costs... 920 000€ lol

I haven't driven one obviously, but I've seen tons of reviews including modern reviews... and yes... this car seems to be proper shit todrive; proper shit mechanical issues and proper shit italian quality finish and its performance are laughable by today's standards. Who cares though with those looks right? lol.

also here are a few pics to save us from dukasaur's vision of horror

Sexy as hell. Timeless.

And I was referring to being 11 in 74, so if that's what you meant, oui, j'ai cinquant-cinq ans, mon frere! Je suis vieux!!! Mais je crois que je suis jeune dans ma tete

Fucking OUCH. Probly butchered that...lol. My youngest is in his third year of French in high school so am trying to remember my studies from 35 years ago :lol:

by **2dimes** on Mon Nov 12, 2018 11:09 am

So just because duk posted a picture of one you don't like you bitch? There are no bad cars. Just bad people who attack others just because they like something different.

Let's enjoy this thread about the wonderful Lamborghini Countachs in all forms here people.

you probably have the best French skills I've seen on CC among the ones I've seen attempting!

I would just've added "encore" in your last sentence, just like in English, without the "still" it doesn't sound that right.

So just talking about cars from this era.... Funny how I loved the Testarosa and I really didn't like the F40 as a countach fanboy..... I only started to really like it in the 2000s I guess.
But my all time favorite Ferrari is the 288 GTO

anybody defending the 25th anniversary or posting pics of that turd in this thread will be severly insulted. It's objectively a massacre.
If you ask a 10 years old to paint on the Mona Lisa with fluorescent markers, I'm sorry but anybody prefereing that version of the painting take deconstructive art way too seriously.

The curvy line going towards the chassis are essential to the design of the car in contrast to the boxy fenders and pilars. Making it all boxy below as Pagani did is a disgrace to Gandini's masterpiece.
Also... ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME WITH THAT REAR BUMPER???? THOSE TAIL LIGHTS? THE MOTHERFUCKING TOP REAR AIR INTAKE DESIGN?

ONLY THING YOU COULD DO TO MAKE IT EVEN MORE STUPID IS ADD A FRONT SPOILER LIKE IN CANNONBALL

this one is ok though

stupid US regulation front and rear bumper

stupid 25th aniversary with stupid US bumpers

CAR PORN AHEAD!!!!

If you like the older ones better post pictures of them. If Dukasaur likes the other ones better that's his right. Let him enjoy his choice.

I made this topic as place to take a break because the forum sucks. Everyone is fighting about things that should not be fought about,

You should be ashamed of yourself but since you are not maybe you should get a forum ban for trying to ruin the thread.

If i won one of those massive lotteries I'd gift betty a 25th anniversary countach.
I'd bet he'd still take it.

Countach parmesan does have a certain ring to it.

To be honest they all look more-or-less the same to me. I guess I'm not the artistic type, trivial details in finish don't concern me.

I just thought it was odd that the thread went six posts deep without any pictures, so I thought I'd help out the community by throwing up a picture. I googled it and posted the first pic that looked decent.

Sorry for trying to help.
