rhetorical question, green is the colour of the nature A friend of mine sold his LP5000s and Diablo and got a LP640 instead, after 2 month he is totally disappointed and wants his CT back.
Just curious (because so rare to see on the road even in California), any members here have a red Countach with gold wheels and a tail? Saw it on the southbound side of the 405 Freeway near Hawthorne this morning ~ 9:30am. No side skirts but the quick glance of the engine lid looked like a fuel injected car so having a hard time putting a year on this car.
countach manuals: almost.... i am still missing the US anniversary one and the holy LP400 manual Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wanted to add that some of this information is untrue.. The owner of this car redid the motor and made it fuel injection with an Electromotive system. It is not twin turbo, however seperately the owner purchased from Bob Wallace a twin turbo motor that Bob designed..
The car is now at Griot's Garage for a photo shoot next week. The car will appear in an upcoming handbook they publish. I stopped in today and made a couple shots amongst the cars in Richards collection. Note the brand new Porsche "Speedster" in the background. Brand new from the factory with factory shrink wrap still on it. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Mike, did Richard have the 308GT4 there? I helped deliver that car to his Indy warehouse & got the grand tour of the place. It was amazing, the size of a Walmart & clean as a new hospital. The story on why he purchased the 308 was pretty cool as well. When Richard was growing up, his neighbor had one. He would see it from time, to time going places. His neighbor was Adam West, as in Bat Man. How awesome is that?
YES! It is still there! He is still very close with Adam and credits him with his LOVE of all cars! The story of how Adam let Richard drive the 308 GT4 when he was a kid is PRICELESS!!!! His collection of cars is pretty spectacular. He has Nikki Laudi's F1 car, a Porsche 962 that Jacky Icxx drove and he is restoring both a Ferrari 365 Daytona Coupe and a Lamborghini Islero.
