@@audiophile6475 replicas tend to take either legit money or legit time. they're best as hobby things. that it is a replica just gives it a goal to go towards rather than making a custom car. though still, the benefit is that it can be anything you want it to be on mechanicals etc. as a hobby thing the time investment becomes more of a positive, as a learning, doing and timewasting hobby. approaching it as a thing to save money is a fools errand, more so if you pay someone a lot of money to do things.

I think because he says he doesnt drive it alot, it makes sense to sell it. Especially since Matt Farrah preaches the driving them alot is actually what keeps them running well and saves on the maintenance. So it sounds like it would be better off cashing in now. The only sad thing is the price point its at, probably will still not be driven alot by whoever was willing to pay.

My former landlord had a number of exotic cars that he had restored, and one of them was a Bizzarini (1960s tube chassis with aluminum body panels and a Chevrolet 327). He was hit by a pickup truck when driving the Bizzarini, and had to do some serious work to get it back to perfect. He later built a Cobra kit car, which came out very nice because of his attention to detail, and this was the car he actually drove and enjoyed.

There are some cars that are very difficult to find real versions of. I think as long as the replica is well made then it's fine, just don't try to sell it as something it isn't. Like, most people aren't going to be able to find a Shelby Cobra or a Ford RS200 even with money. Hell, I'd gladly put an RSi bodykit on my Beetle if I could find one. Would I tell people it's a real RSi? No, I'd be honest, but I'd love the look regardless.

I don't think I realized until very recently... that It was actually a privilege growing up living next door to a guy who owned not only a yellow, but also a white Countach. And not only was my bedroom window right next to where they were parked, but every single morning I would wake up to the loudest noise of him cold starting either his or several other people's Countach's that he worked on as a full time mechanic....out of his garage. That shit drove me crazy hearing those things at 6am on a Saturday morning. I will admit, those days when I missed the bus in the morning and ended up nervously walking behind his car with what seemed like...6 foot wide rear tires at the time. To make my way up to his front door and ask if he could give me a ride to school.... were absolutely legendary. I was so young and so used to seeing them everyday that I didn't really comprehend how awesome and not-so-normal it was to see 4 of these beautiful beasts all parked out front, much less getting to ride shotgun in a Countach going 90mph in our neighborhood at 6 years old....before he had to tame the wild horses down as we quickly got to that 20mph school zone.😂 Then I'll bet he probably regretted saying yes to those few rides to school after maneuvering that bright yellow Countach through the carpool line. Good times...

Hey Hoovie, years ago back when the Countach was being sold new, Harry Levinson of Harry Levinson's men's clothing in Indianapolis had one. I remember him pulling up and parking it along the windows of the Friday's on the north side of Indy. He got out then walked around the car and opened the door for his wife/girlfriend. She was in a dress and heals, she turned sideways in her seat and put her feet out the door. He then grabbed her hands then pulled her up and out very smoothly, I was impressed. His car looked like a twin to yours, white with a red interior.

Enjoyed the torn bar code sticker on the back of the rear view on the red replica. It says everything the guys who build and keep these things. Also liked the puffs of oil smoke out of the exhaust. It's always fitting to use junkyard engines in the replica cars without going through them. When they get too bad, just get another one from your local auto recycler. Don't even bother to hose off the grime. That said I feel that 20k is too much money for them.

I saw a Fiero replica on CarGurus for an insane price the other day, but it was listed entirely as a Countach. Zero mention of it being a Fiero, aside from the picture of its engine, but a non-car person wouldn't know its about 1/3rd the size, but if you know even a little you can obviously tell just looking at the fenders etc, but it looked just like all the other kit cars.

Hey Hoovie I love your videos and content... the laughs and knowledge are well worth subscribing, I am sorry to hear the double edge sword has come to swing on the ownership I love that you finally achieved your dream car, but sadly it is time to send it on to the next custodian. If you cant enjoy it because your afraid you'll destroy the value then its no longer any fun to own and I am a man who believes in Jay Leno's mantra, cars are meant to be driven not sit in the garage.

The replicas all fall short unless it’s a full blown recreation with modern tech. The 25th anniversary Countach is a glorious automobile and undervalued for what it is. Funny how the vintage Alpine ate Tyler’s Top Gun soundtrack, kinda appropriate really. Good to see the man’s balls have healed, he was showing off his new shorts in a athletic way. Best wishes to all!!

My first amateur rally build was a Fiero when I was 16. I still have that car, but it's a few generations of rebuilds later with a manual gearbox Toyota 2GR V6 I planned on using for a Celica FWD build. All new suspension and everything to give a solid mix of grip and comfort for touring. Body mostly original but with a slight different height (I liked it when it was actually raised a bit for rally, so it's basically a wannabe Lancia Stratos in terms of height and tire style). With some common complaints fixed, they're not bad little cars for what they offer for the price. I have two Opel GTs (One all stock, one with a turbo LE5 1.4l I4) that blow both the Fieros I own away in a lot of categories, but all of them are fun to drive.

I love the sounds of engines and sitting at a stop light in my youth, hearing that roar as it came to a stop right next to me, thinking "What is that? That is NOT a V10. That HAS to be a V12!" And sure enough, at green oaks at an under pass in Arlington, TX of all places, a Lamborghini Diablo pulled up next to me. I became a man that day.

Stop fixating on the Countach's damn value and just enjoy the thing for what it is: an iconic car that millions would love a chance to drive let alone own, but that you DO actually own. Cars like the Lambo were meant to have fun with, but the ridiculously wealthy have turned them into garage queen investments instead, to be pampered and coddled until it's time to sell for next hot commodity to throw their money at. Instead, break this chain of insanity and just enjoy the Countach for exactly what it is: one hell of a car. No Fieroghini will EVER give you that because you will always know that it's merely lipstick on a pig, one that's built totally on lies.

I haven't even seen a replica Countach in person yet... though they're probably illegal in my country, like most modified cars. I did see an Espada though, and that's even more rare. The red one looks quite convincing from the outside, even the sound was fine. The interior needs some more attention, though it's not like they didn't use leather and foam-wrapped plywood in the original dashboard as well... But yeah, don't sell the real thing, if you don't absolutely have to... you'll regret it, either emotionally or financially.
