Here It Comes Again: Lamborghini Brings the Countach Name Back To Life!


Here It Comes Again: Lamborghini Brings the Countach Name Back To Life!

(By Tom Lohnes) – After the Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae was revealed as the last AVentador, we were all ready to move on. Well, apparently the Aventador’s ancient platform is still in use, because It is having one last hurrah while reviving the looks and name from perhaps the most famous 80’s car of all time. You guessed it, the Countach.

That’s right, the official car of a child’s bedroom wall is making a comeback, but as an ultra-limited, 12-cylinder powered true successor to the car. The signature wedge shape is making a return, as you can clearly see from under the cloak it wears in the teaser pic, but that’s not even the best part. Lamborghini was going to save this car for a few years from now, but they’ve decided to make their last-ever car that runs purely on old dinosaurs a remake of possibly their most famous car ever. It should look straight out of 1986, just with some modern touches. Hopefully they address the Countach’s biggest issue of anyone over 5’8 not being able to fit inside of it.

Either way, if this thing looks like we all think it does then we have another car that will turn a whole new generation of people into gearheads purely by looking at it.  Good move, Lambo.
