    Correct, 1121038 was sold as of Wednesday to a real enthusiast. It will be restored to its original Bleu Tahiti with Bleu interior. Before anyone asks, I hope I am regarded as being generous with pricing information in almost all cases, but in this case there is a privacy agreement in place.

    Yes it is "SS" and if you view the rear panel next to the Lamborghini badge you'll see the same thing - SS. This SS is purely a privateer application and was not done by the factory. I suppose two Ss are better than one?

    Additionally remark, when you look at older pictures like in Pasini's book there were no SSSSSSSS-Badges at the side of the car, also the front indicator was not covered by plexi.

    Does anyone have any photos of Countach chassis number 12424, the last pre-anniversary Countach made for the US? They have a small pic on the Lambo Registry site, but I would love to see more of this beauty.

    Miura Blue / White! Breathtaking!! This one is like the "ultimate" to me, because the Anniversary models just don't really do it for me.

    Well, if you ever write one, I'm 1st in line to get one. My old Boxer is in Nathan Beehl's book complete with my name, his autograph, and a few shots of my car that I sent in. It's one of my most treasured automotive books. So let us all know when you're gonna start writing.

    Is this the same car that was on Ebay back in 1998/1999 (yeah, I remember as it is the best color I have seen). I thought it was referred to as "Tahiti Blue".

    DAMN! I WANT THIS CAR!!!

    Quick question:

    Is 12424 the last pre-anniversary in the world, or just the U.S.?

    The last pre-Annivesario worldwide, according to my (often-flawed) notes!

    The color is "Blu Miura"...

    Owned by a discerning gentleman back East.
