    I love this era of supercars, these three cars really represented the feel of what each brand meant. As fast and advanced as these cars were at the time they somehow managed to create the sense that they were so much more than what they were in reality, which is what I think a supercar should do, make you feel like it's the most amazing and exotic thing you've ever seen.

    I still have this glorious VHS tape, along with a few others from the era. Think I bought it from a NAPA Auto Parts store back in the late 80s.

    It's good to look up what Lambo test driver has to say about Countach. His story is gold!

  • @awakenedsoul2638
    @awakenedsoul2638 10 лет назад +1

    Is this in VHS or BETA MAX copy? Its a bit boring no skid pad test, acceleration, topspeed, breaking and handling test to prove who is the better among the three but none the less rare VERY GOOD VIDEO I appreciate your upload uploader thank you!
    Lamborghini Fan here Since the 1980's! Countach blows away two!

    Porsche = slowest BUT most reliable of the three and with the lowest maintenance. Countach = looks aerodynamic but is as aerodynamic as a brick; also has the heaviest clutch, the most uncomfortable seats, and is a real pain in the ass to drive. Testarossa = great aerodynamics to where it's glued to the road, BUT the most expensive to maintain and a lighter clutch than normal for Ferraris.

    Anyone know where I can find the 1985 "The Lambos" video that they speak about at 4:44? Been looking for it for years!...

  • @denmalski
    @denmalski 9 лет назад +1

    I thought the countach wasn't fuel injected until 1987, was this an option earlier than 85

      @drivenmann6211 8 лет назад

      It was a requirement on US spec cars, while European cars still had carbs, and probably a bit more power.

      Why do people come to an American owned website, watch an American made video, then complain about Americans?

    • @Pietervdv
      @Pietervdv 8 лет назад

      Not complaining at all, it just doesn't make any sense to pronounce it that way in either English or Italian. Same goes for "risotto" for that matter.
