The supercar icon of the 1970s - The Lamborghini Countach LP400 Periscopio

The Lamborghini Countach lp400 Periscopio is one of the most iconic cars to come out of the 70s. This one being one of 150 made and not being a bright flashy color makes it unique, winning many awards and turning heads everywhere it goes. it paved the way for the sleek designs we see on modern Lamborghinis today

One of the most beautiful cars ever. And this color is just stunning..

The colour is shit

[@stanleymasterson1135]

Yes, fantastic color. You also will never get the question "Is it a kit car?" like I do in my Countach 5000S. Why? Because no kit car was ever made of the LP400

[@mvd0072]

I had a poster of this 80's version strange to see it without a massive wing

[@abucketofelves]

Unreasonably beautiful.

[@AutoConceptionTV]

Such a radical car design. Even more so today.

[@jerryhawk8434]

My dream car I have a bunch of posters of it when I was a kid . I lv this 1

[@gamby16a]

I can't believe how immaculate that luggage is. The exterior color is amazing and the interior is stunning. I was always more of a fan of the muscularity of the LP400S, but this LP400 is just gorgeous. Great video.

[@FerrarisOnline]

Thanks! More to come!

[@Sunedosa]

Since the interior is redone the same is probably true for the bags. they look brand new.

[@FerrarisOnline]

Yep the car underwent a complete resoration and has won many awards.

[@Sunedosa]

@@FerrarisOnline It's beautiful.

[@timonsolus]

That’s definitely a ‘70’s colour scheme. Proves that the Countach isn’t just an ‘80’s car!

[@ceedoubleyou]

oh wow, a Lamborghini Countach lp400 Periscopio, you've made my day! I was a 16yr old, in 1971, when a fellow student brought to class, a hardcover book of exotic cars, which included only a quarter page size, black and white, side profile shot and we were just wide mouthed looking at this, "car".

[@txlcompany]

So many of the "why it's good", "why it's bad", "why it's worth...", "why it's a pain in the ---" videos do not have the well thought out, well studied, and passion this lady has. Very well done. No, I don't know her, but this is great! I own a 1980 Porsche 930 (owned for 10 years (before they were unexplainably high valued). I love my car and drive the wheels off of it (which I think how these should be driven). The Countach, the Testarossa, and the Porsche 930 were all on my walls as a kid (born 1981)

[@TheEmpfindungsamkeit]

Two clarifications: "Luci di Bosco" means, literally, "Forest Lights"; and "countàcc" is not an italian word, but a word in Piedmontese dialect (indeed, Bertone's coachwork was in Piedmont)... in italian it sounds like "contagio" (in english "contagion"); instead, in Piedmontese dialect, has the same meaning of "damn", or "wow".

[@kskdtr]

A lil correction: the countach was supposed to have an actual periscope-like gizmo for rear view, but when it didn't work out they ditched it for a classic rearview mirror, yet keeping the recess on the first 150ish... and Countach is not italian, rather piedmontese, the region of Bertone. greetings from Sant'Agata Bolognese

[@alwco]

@@FerrarisOnline The very small, rectangular, rear-view window (in the roof) as well as the very small amount that the driver's and passenger's lower-half windows open have always been intriguing to me.

I love the Countach..in 1985 my brother and I as well as a friend helped me Build a set of Replica Body Parts.. but...Now when I see the real car.. I see the Fiat Hinges and latches, as well as the Fiat X-19 rear trunk and Engine Cover Release, plus the use of The Bullet proof.. Mercedes Door locks..then they use a Cheap Black Plastic Rear Tail light Bases which the rear lenses go in and are covered with the Red Reflector..it's an Enigma...thanks for sharing it..

Two beauties

[@russophilej857]

Interesting fact ... In the TVR Griffith ... The Avanti ... and the Countach ... The fiberglass is literally Grafted to tubular steel frames ... The frames can rust within the glass ... I knew of a TVR that was compromised structurally by rust ... If you could drill strategic holes in through the glass and inspect the frame internally you could correct that section ... Rivets and glue "strips" like on the Corvette allow for a separate frame ... This allows for an easier restoration ... Something to think about !!! 😮😮😮 ...
