    It's amazing how this car styling has stood the test of time. Usually bold futuristic cutting edge designs become outdated and have that "what were they thinking" effect.

    Without a doubt THE UNDISPUTED SUPERCAR of the 80's. While some will argue the 512 boxer or Testarossa was more refined and possibly better engineered it was the Countach that was without a doubt EVERY 80's kids dream!!! Very few cars can match the visual impact that this body style did over 30 years ago. The wedge styling of the Countach was breath-taking that is like a "first crush" in gradeschool. Few will forget about it, and almost everyone acknowledges and still respects the impact this car had in history.

  • @seinsc7913
    @seinsc7913 7 лет назад +2

    Don't blame the owner. Maybe he came into some cash or scrimped and saved....like maybe 400K to make the purchase. Now he gently nurses the car down the road because he's scared shitless and praying that the engine doesn't puke while he ownes it.
    I saw one countach on youtube that had a major servicing with carbs rebuilt....not a total engine rebuild but "a service" cost $40K.
    So one requires deep pockets to buy and also to maintain!
    I almost bought a Ferrari 308 GTSi years ago. The price of the car was reasonable but the absolute FEAR of huge repair bills kept me on the side lines.

I like the white better though. THE dream car of the 80s. I kind of like the 88's rear body style a little more, but I still love them both equally!

I held a full international racing license in the UK for many years racing saloons cars and touring cars , drove rally cars in Canada as well as raced snowmobiles , if you have any doubt to what i have said i would be happy to provide you with photos, oh the one car I have never owned has been a Toyota .

      I like the 1989 Ann Countach. I'm sad that these cars are out of my price range. If not mistaken wasnt the MSRP on the 1985-1988 about $120K when new?

      Cool thanks for the link Lou. I really like your channel. I always loved cars since I was a kid. Italian cars of course because I am son of immigrants from Italy. I drive a 2014 Dodge Charger. Its the best sedan I could find with a big engine that was not too expensive.

    • @loucostabile

    This disaster on wheels revs at 3800rpm at 70mph. City cruising in 5th gear at 2200rpm at 45mph. That's the cruel reality of a Countach.

    Jesus, I see redline just about every time I drive my 512tr. But hey, maybe he was in the market for a town car and got a Countach instead. Me i drive them like I can afford them. Hell, this here is just me taking a 3 block drive to the supermarket.
    ruclips.net/video/dWJh_t4Y810/видео.html
    And no I'm not rebuilding engines all the time. I still remember seeing a 60 thousand mile 993 carrera S getting a full engine rebuild due to so much carbon build-up atop the pistons whereby the valves started hitting the carbon. The cause? The owner thought that 60 thousand miles under 4000 rpm would have that engine lasting forever. He should have bought a Lincoln instead. Here's another one while driving my 993 supercup down to a local winery. No carbon build-up in this one.

      Hi Ed Bighi, Suggestions 1) WHEN YOU WANT TO BE AN EXPERT CRITIC SHOW YOUR CAR, NOT THE GEAR SHIFT IN YOUR VIDEO & YOU'LL GET A LOT MORE THEN 12 VIEWS 2) Starting you comment with "Jesus", his message was "Follow Me" & "Seek to understand" so when a guy is kind enough to share his car for you to enjoy & he's just getting used to the car, cut him some slack, instead of sounding like a know it all. 3) Based on where you reside, we can take your Countach for a ride and I can video & share with Viewer on the Channel and let them share with you what they think. Stay well, and look forward to hearing from you, Lou www.MyCarStoryWithLou.com

    • @dmonsef
      @dmonsef 3 года назад

      There is a recommended way to how you should backup the Countach in Reverse gear. You simply just lift up the driver-side scissor door, sit on the doorway edge, look back over your right shoulder and go in reverse. It might be a little tricky because your sitting on the doorway edge while stepping on both the clutch and gas peddle.

      @slamcrank 7 лет назад +1

      Yes, it was. If this is a 5000QV, it probably needs to have a service on the injector system. Something is not right in the idle. Also, this driver is going to need a new clutch VERY soon the way he's driving it. It's not a problem to skip gears, per se, but his technique of starting off in 2nd gear is burning the clutch to bits.

      Goran Radovanovic The first Lamborghinis ever made were tractors. Anyways, truth be told, non-professional drivers really shouldn't push a car like this too hard. It doesn't have a single modern safety piece of electronics. No traction control etc. You can really get yourself into some serious trouble if you don't have some real skills and experience with a car like this when you push it. Plus even a minor fender bender is going to cost ridiculous amounts of money to fix properly
