    Good Luck, finding 25th sport seats is like winning in the lottery...

    I drove two 25th with those sport seats, they are much better than the normal QV seats, I would also be happy to find a pair for my QV :)

    Correct, rarissimma, but the most comfortable seats made by the factory for a Countach...

    Interesting to see that it has the pre MY 1987 dashboard but the door sills opened like I did on mine. I wonder which QV they used to convert to LP150.

    A unique Countach to be sure, but as for the styling, the less said the better!

    I was amazed to see how similar the front air dam, and wheel covers were on this Countach Prototype, to those on the Aston Martin "Bulldog".

    I dont see any 1978 or 1979 Countachs originally painted Arancio by the works.

    Of course there were several LP400 in this livery, and one famous Annivesario ordered in Arancio to match the owner's LP400.

    However 1121080 has been repainted from its Rosso livery into Arancio Metallizzatto (metallic orange).

    1120272. It is presently white.

    Here is a magazine featuring a story about its race with an air-force fighter jet.

    When I was bying my Countach, this car was one of cars at sale that time.

    ...At that time I was negotiating one car, 5000S black/black (if I remember right...) from German dealer and suddenly got message that said simply: "Car is sold to Japan and is curently waiting for container, new owner never view the car just boght it" :D

    Thanks for scanning that article, ferry400. Awesome stuff.

    Seeing a Countach w/ Goodyear racing slicks on it is pretty sick.
