Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 on BaT

[chassis]

Proof that Volkswagen is doing good things with the Lamborghini brand. What a car.

No connection with BaT, VAG or the seller.

Not a big fan. It looks like they ran out of ideas and decided to build something that was designed in the '80s

It looks like the sort of think an Arab Oil Baron would have commissioned. It's hideous.

[FC4]

Those are dope.

True, it'll never be an original one.
For a brand that's so big on styling, bringing out a retro model is for sure a step back as nothing at Lamborghini has ever revolved around retro.(ok, this could also be seen as a tribute, small difference)

BTW, designed in the early 70's (imagine how far ahead they were with styling, at least a decade )

That people still think this new one is supercool shows how good that original design of Gandini was.

I prefer the original. And given the seriousness of VWs financial woes, one has to start wondering if the non core brands, such as Ducati, Lamborghini and Bugatti will be sold off?

Gorgeous!!! ..... Thanks for sharing

Needs a front and rear spoiler in order for it to be called a Countach LP just my nickel.

Wow $105K for the exterior carbon package.

[NickyC]

I think it looks incredible. I absolutely adore the exposed fat tires in the rear, super cool.

[dgoldenz]

I’ll bet it sells under MSRP

[Jbrown7403]

Not for me….way too difficult to parallel park. High mileage as well.

[RM7]

This is the original and best.

[chassis]

Proportions and shape are outstanding. Every square centimeter of this car has details to feast the eyes on.

Good things with the Lambo, see the Temerario... its front end has a pair of half-baked fog lamp alike LEDs, and the ACC sensors on both sides like an Audi from a decade ago... oh and the rad grill is all the way out in the open right behind the license plate. Looks like some non-designer botched the front end design in the last second. Volkswagen is quite frankly collecting the garbage, has been that way for long.

[Efthreeoh]

Lambo doors have been so over done at this point.

Wonder if it’s because of the tacky gold spec?

Probably would have done far better in white (and looked far better too).

Not a great fan of interior and exterior carbon so would gladly skip that if I was choosing.

[M5Rick]

The original F1 style pedestal rear wing should be an option with one double central arm instead of those girlie flaps, now that would be something.

Probably because there’s no reason these cars should be $2.8m when an SVJ is $2m+ less. Maybe if they had made it with a manual.
