    Olivier, just a correction to avoid confusion. this car is a 500S not a QV so it is CLA not GLA
    That said, I see a lot of waisted money on the leather and the controls. what was the owner thinking? He likes that?

    Damn I love this car. Love the way the gold wheels and saddle interior contrast with the copper paint. BUT MOST OF ALL, I LOOOOOOVE THAT IT'S WINGLESS! YEEEEAAAAA :)

    Brians Countach was the first and only lambo I've ever had a drive in...special place in my heart for that beauty. My buddy owned that car up here in Canada, then it moved South so glad to see it's in fine working order...nice job Brian!

    Yes, that is correct. But the board posters here have asked that
    I don't post about cars I sell....so, I am honoring the request.

    Roy, I would hope and appreciate that when sold, you will feel comfortable enough to post the price and where it's going, etc.
    I would only hope that that info would be grounds for members to contribute a nice discussion after the sale is completed.

    Found this the other day. Not sure if this is the appropriate place but here is my room when I was younger circa 1988. I was so enamored with these cars that I completely covered the walls of my room. I wish I had other pictures showing the other walls as the shrine to Countachs continued on all four. Full coverage floor to ceiling.
    First one I ever saw was a red one in Omaha Nebraska, I believe it was Willy Theisens, he was giving the keys to some guy in a empty parking lot. I believe he was selling it as I remember from one of the guys some remark about better not see it in front of some bar in Kanasas city.
    Second sighting as a youngster was the red Alpine Targa Top Car some guy won and was taking it around for events, it was surprisingly worn looking.
    I figured if I would have saved my money instead of buying magazines to tear apart and 20 dollar posters I might actually have one :)

    Anyone going to Villa D'Este? A very special Countach will be in attendance.

    I had the poster that's in the top right corner! The white one - 5000S? Not sure, but I remember an 'S' on the back of the car.

    Funny reminds me of my room around the age of 14, had many of the same posters! :)
    Though my favourite was this one.

    Awesome pic! This could have been my room also! Every square inch of my room was covered in Countach posters. Unfortunately, my room was in the basement & got flooded right to the top. Lost them all :(
    Many times I had the same thought regarding how much I spent on those posters, lol
