The Lamborghini Countach
The Lamborghini Countach, one of the classic exotics, was a child hood dream to many growing up in the 80s. The Countach was way ahead of its time when it was introduced in 1974 and produced until 1990. Capable of achieving a top speed of over 180 MPH. The Lamborghini Countach is the car you put at the top of the Christmas wish list� the car you would drive if you wanted EVERYONE to notice you. The Lamborghini simply has something (besides a heart-attack inducing price-tag!) that makes the most cynical of us sit up and take notice.
And dream on having the resources and the intestinal fortitude to actually buy one.. How many of us plastered our computer screens with wallpaper posters of this car?
Mine was a white Lamborghini Jalpa and I know of innumerable Countach' s that have been immortalized in bedrooms, offices and garages around the world.
This site shares some of the images and information that have helped create the legend that is the Lamborghini.
