[@gsmith207]

support truck was genius. Doesn’t matter what kind of car when they are that old and not driven a lot shit will happen. Great story JT!

[@Bob_Smith19]

Not driven is the part that matters the most.

[@jdmmike7225]

3:42 This Countach is awesome. Almost looks like a land speed build. Love the look of it.

[@WeAreCurated]

Some of our finest days. Thank you to everyone who took part!

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

John, are Americans pronouncing Countach wrong when we say it as “Countosh” or is Valentino Balboni’s pronunciation wrong how he says it at around 2:40 in the video linked below? kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3STm2Rtp5eJhrc

[@MAGGOT_VOMIT]

I saw you guys in Asheville. As you guys went by I was jealously pointing and saying, "Hate, Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate!!" 😉🤣

[@Pits750]

​@@Lettuce-and-Tomatoesyes they all say it wrong, it's Com-taTch it's exactly like Valentino says it

[@Pits750]

John stop calling it a Cooontaahhjjjee it's Con-taTch.

[@slcncr]

What i just realized, besides really loving John`s Videos and all these background stories about finding rare supercars: He is a really good storyteller ! The way he talks, the voice, his charisma and personality. More than just a supercar dealer.

[@kr8219]

Every time I hear this guy speak, it becomes more obvious that he's driven by a passion for these vehicles moreso than just for money. Really refreshing attitude.

[@stuffhappens5681]

It’s heartwarming to see young guys like John and his crew carrying the torch for these cars.

[@99bimmer]

That dark copper with gold rims looks so sick on the Countach. If I happened to see this parade of my all time favorite car drive by, I think I would blink out of existence

[@violinmiata]

Damn that’s beautiful, all the cars with the doors up, the engines rumbling and revving!! The support vehicles were a brilliant idea! Thanks John!!

[@truflixmedia]

Beyond grateful to have filmed this incredible once in a lifetime event in Asheville. Great video guys

[@TheCannonball79]

Thanks John. Congratulations on your Rally success it must have been a great experience for everyone.

[@ericcipolla]

I’ve only seen one Countach at my local cars and coffee, I can’t imagine how it would be to be around dozens lol

[@ImARealHumanPerson]

I've only ever seen one too. But it was a Fieroghini.

[@ferrynpalmer3875]

When I was in middle school in the early 90's my dads friend owned the local Nissan dealership in Columbus, IN. He bought a white 25th Anniversary Countach and I was there when it rolled off the truck from Texas. I'd go there on the weekeds and sit in it. He'd take me on short drives. I got to idle it around the dealership parking lot from time to time...when it was running, which wasn't often. I was enamored with Jalpa's as a kid but recognized how special that car was then. If I could afford it, that'd be the one that lived in my garage and was never touched. The 25th anniversary editions were bonkers.

[@VINwiki]

This event makes me wish I hadn't sold my Diablo Roadster to Patrick Adair. Hmmm....

[@charlesmaddox3859]

The VT roadster would be my child hood dream (achievable) car

[@pistonburner6448]

MR2s are cheap, fibreglass is cheap, and there are plenty of instructions online... 🤡

[@kkjoe1911]

Go rewatch his updates... you'll get over it real quick 🤣

[@CoopCollins]

Ed can we please get another Garadge appraisal episode. Pretty Please. lol

[@Truth-And-Freedom]

sad that you feel the need to tell people you used to have a diablo.

[@markk3453]

the ultimate client building experience for John. brilliant! most marketing stunts dont make money BUT if done right they propel the brand higher. i got a feeling in 5 to 10 years. John can start his own auction house and since he build all these relationship with very well of customers they might come to him before they go to the other major auction places.

[@christopheranderson3297]

Late last year, you guys did a similar rally here in western NC that went directly past my house (Rugby Rd, not far from Horse Shoe Farm). I had no idea that it was happening, so you can imagine how surprised I was to first HEAR - - then SEE the incredible group of cars that had been assembled. Multiple Countaches, Diablos, F50s, F40s, Testarossas, 911s - - even a bonkers XJR-15. I was the guy who ran out in my boxers, partially hungover, mouth agape, with a cup of coffee in hand ha ha. Without a doubt one of the coolest, most unexpected experiences of my life so far. If you'll accept a lowly 360 into the mix, I'd love to join you guys next time you're in the area. Love your business, YT channel, and general passion for these cars John - keep it up!!

[@Jordunk23]

Temerian. Favorite car youtuber, curator, vintage car seller, IG car influencer, and guest on vin wiki.

[@1koolkat76]

That's straight passion from the heart, whenever John speaks.

[@rossdinius3303]

John is one of the best story tellers on vinwiki. Please keep bring him on to make videos

[@shafferjoe1962]

Ed, please put up a video of this rally. This is more than like a once in a life time event in the US. If I missed it, I'm sorry in advance. Be blessed brother

[@frankhayward6758]

There are videos on John's channel @CuratedTV

[@FicarraClassic]

Yes, John you are crazy. A wonderful kind of crazy that creates amazing events like this. Keep it up my friend!

[@Ma660t5andw1ch]

Love that they got to drive some of those roads we love between HMB and Monterey!

[@sarahatcher1663]

So I work right next to the Ritz in Half Moon Bay and had the pleasure of seeing these cars. Spectacular display of vehicles for sure.

[@brandenjones192]

That sunburnt orange countach is beautiful.

[@Pedal2Metal_on_YouTube]

Definitely looks awesome

[@Knautschfriese]

I was in Switzerland two weeks ago. On the highway was a bunch of about 100 Porsche of all models driving. That was absolutely awesome to see. I only ride on two wheels, but I LOVE a well build beautiful Car!

[@dylanrieck6671]

Imagine being on a road trip and encountering a Countach Convoy. You must've blown some minds

[@jfwfreo]

IMO the Countach is one of the coolest cars ever made. If I could have any 5 cars, one of them would be a Countach (the same model/colors/spec/etc as the one in the opening scene of the first Canonball Run movie)

[@alextirado1140]

Been to car week many times. I’m crying because I was on vacation while this was happening 40 mins from me. I can’t even imagine how awesome this was to experience in person. So Legendary.

[@brendanboozer3802]

If you can, I highly recommend going on a rally that is just for your car. I went to a mr2 meet a couple weeks ago called mr2 freedom and we had the best time ever. Everyone owns the same car as you and you get to talk about one of your favorite things (for me a 88 mk1b supercharged) for an entire day.

[@maxregal8889]

I do love John’s stories but I wish he would get one of his talented technicians to adjust his watch band so it fits.

[@oregonhighway]

neat to be able to realize those childhood dreams, for everyone 😊

[@rugu6869]

Love John's passion and knowledge of Lamborghini's. Keep it up

[@wegot2wordsforya]

In Puerto Rico there’s just a few supercars, but I’ve seen a red countach, a green SVJ and a blue 488 Pista and they’re stunning, can’t imagine seeing a tom of them together

[@Viporghini]

Would love to something like this with my 82 Jalpa prototype!

[@rjnation5042]

Congratulations John what a legend you are, Rj in Oz

[@slbrugby7218]

Wow - what an awesome rally. Safe to say there was multiple goosebump moments throughout that event

[@pablos3563]

Fantastic gathering! I wish to participate it one day

[@RandomActsofGibberish]

Always love John's stories.

[@mike9657]

John is one of the best!

[@henkkaj73]

Absolutely love his passion for the Countaches 🙂

[@EdBolian]

This is marketing done right!

[@2sickjay]

My neighbor has a yellow countach next to a red Ferrari 🔥🔥

[@christopherkraft1327]

John always tells a great story!!! Thanks John & Ed!!! 🎈🎉

[@2009FordCrownVic]

Great day ahead since vinwiki uploaded

[@VINwiki]

Lots of great days ahead!

[@2009FordCrownVic]

@@VINwiki Looking forward to it!

[@just_some_internet_guy]

It looks like you have a lot of professional looking videos from the rally. Can we see them?

[@CoopCollins]

Ed can we please get another Garadge appraisal episode. Pretty Please. lol

[@speedmayhavebeenafactor9736]

This shouldn’t disappoint. 👌🏻

[@Graves-81_69]

As a kid in the 80s I had a Countash poster on my wall and I was naive enough to think I would own one when I grew up. Lord how wrong I was😅

[@bikkiikun]

The Countach perfecly embodies the Lambo-Insanity.

[@devinmcelroy7712]

I live like one minute from the ritz in hmb I remember this lol

[@noonehere1793]

Nice story…well done….what an adventure to put on!

[@mattipeltola4934]

Such a positive event and video 👍

[@00Zy99]

What routes did you take on the two rally trips?

[@RazingthenRaising]

I wish I had known you were here! I live near Asheville!

[@goldtutch]

so cool but unfortunately im still in the poster phase, the dream never happened for me but this vid was very cool

[@devensautox4698]

So what you're saying is a countach can't make it more than a few hundred miles without having a breakdown. Would love to see what happens at a countach track day

[@mattagnew206]

Kinda sounds like most of the issues were PM ones - unflushed brakes, dried out coolant hoses, etc. Do a rally for 40 year old garage queen Toyotas, you're going to have the same result.

[@joshdobson2737]

The double silver gives me goosebumps but the bronze has me making inappropriate noises every time!

[@husam1212]

did you see how Taylor Hoover how Somoothley Enter the Countach for the tall people it is always an issue! 3:28

[@drworm5007]

What's the story behind the streamlined one? It looks super cool.

[@silkysixx]

Ed, don’t ever put some a-hole in a Balenciaga shirt in my face again.

[@randolphduke]

I will second that 100%.

[@jeffdaigle5487]

I love this channel.

[@joshrice5466]

That was you i photograph all the cars in Asheville

[@0_44_4]

Best 80's and 90's car show ever is called "Radwood" if it's in your area need to go

[@CHRISROYALSCHIEFSFAN]

I had a poster of one when I was younger . I'm almost 50 years young and still haven't seen one in person. 😢

[@Law19157]

That's funny, I went into real estate because I have a dream of owning a 1998 Lamborghini Diablo SV

[@iceslayer777]

John always has wonderful stories and it’s so nice to see a dream like that come true where you’re actually hosting the car rally and have a whole support team. Hopefully I’ll get to be a part of some rally one day!

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

Valentino Balboni doesn’t pronounce the name Countach as “Countosh”. I’ve heard him say this word in interviews several times. Either John Temerian is mispronouncing it or Valentino Balboni is mispronouncing because they are miles apart and they both can’t be correct.

[@drworm5007]

How does Mr Balboni pronounce it?

[@WEKM]

Very cool sir. 😎

[@kevinw627]

John is first class all things Lamborghini

[@bradferkovich5136]

Its videos and individuals like John that help breakdown the stereotypes of people who have the opportunity to own such beautiful cars. Love the Video John Temerian!

[@The_TIP]

Boom

[@ICKY427]

dang i wish id known about the one in asheville, thats not far from me.

[@NFSCAMARO]

What's the story on the Diablo with he PS2 sticker?

[@gurabirierosanopara620]

"My personal countach at the time" Please marry me

[@SaltySlav]

Selling my one of one Honda HRV any takers

[@overbuiltlimited]

"Iconic"

[@DaBaltimoron]

3:44 what is this variant?

[@Pedal2Metal_on_YouTube]

If I remember correctly, it was raced at Bonneville Salt Flats in the late 80s. Sure looks like a fiero front nose piece to these old eyes...

[@Blu3_SK33]

Rich asses!!!😂

[@hotshothaulers]

Well I know the yellow XJR did because I towed it back to NY

[@muhammadsidibe2523]

Its literally no way you can call a car "sort of reliable " if you have 20 of them and 6-7 have an issue 😂

[@kkjoe1911]

No Farah? Did you get a cease and desist from the Countach Union? 😅

[@DBNxHail]

10th 🥲🥲🥲

[@bantheundead4162]

A lot of hurting backs and sore ankles 😅

[@j.wberger3479]

What’s the story of the red Countach that looks like it has a “superbird “ nose?

[@Beaula2]

Gahd I wish I had big money.

[@TheAtomTwister]

Sure wish that the missing Countach Turbo could have made it to the rally. The most interesting cars make it through Curated. Cheers John. I'm very happy with what AutoTempest has made personally. I don't usually talk about sponsors, but I'm quite happy with having an easier time searching for cars. Only thing I wish is that they reached a few more outlets. Only thing I wish is that they included more listing sites like Bring a Trailer, Cars and Bids, carwow, etc. I search for Dodge Vipers like you search for Murcielagos on it. I'd love to see it expand to include more outlets. It's a really good tool.

[@kevbecker672]

Ed... John Temerian makes great videos.....And no British accent to deal with and the steering wheels are always on the correct side.....As the Universe likes it....

[@stevenmiller224]

looking at some these pictures it warms my heart, in a way when ferrari did their event from 250s to the f40 f50s, lamborghini is the king to me not scuderia ferrari

[@kevinlaguna2023]

Yeah buddddyyyyyy

[@Graves-81_69]

0:06 I bet 60% on the post before the video was posted. Let’s see how I did

[@SaltyChip]

Where does John work again????

[@jamesstewart3771]

We are curated in Miami , Fl . I think its in the Wynwood area .

[@MAGGOT_VOMIT]

I was the guy in Asheville pointing as you guys went by saying, "Hate, Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate Hate!! 😉🤣

[@isailopez4132]

I wish I could afford a car… 😞

[@pinkyandbrain123]

My man John wearing Balenciaga… 😢

[@selsdon7073]

No Lamborghini is "vintage" as that term only applies to cars built before 1930

[@toddr3093]

Lol!!

[@BILLYBOBB3080]

You need a Genius Garge segment. Of the students not Casey.

[@crazydeathcar]

So humorously ridiculous they had a support team following the rally.

Is temperamental a word for junk and unreliable?

[@northernsurferboy]

I am at 4:23 and clicked off, this dudes stories are so boring, okay dude you went to California and saw some countash that is great what's the point

[@randolphduke]

Balenciaga Boy again. Come on, John. You have to know what Balenciaga is about. Quit advertising for a company like that. It's just plain evil.
