    You're Countach looks like it just rolled off the line. Beautiful! No interior pics? awwwww! :(

    Opinions are like armpits, everyone has them and they all stink... but since you asked:

    1. I do not like the rims. In fact, I have never seen a car that I like black rims on. Ever.

    2. Why are all of those stickers on the car?!?! A pristine example Lambo "with stickers". In my opinion, the only sticker that should EVER be displayed on a Lamborghini is a Factory MSRP Window Sticker.

    3. Exhaust looks great! Bet it sounds even better!

    Gorgeous car. Engine looks very cocky like that- love it! Congrats to you.

    Gee I did not know we had met ;)

    Its a forum guys, we are allowed to express our opinions, even if they are not 100% positive. If you cannot handle that don't post. 6.0 se even expected to get flamed ... and yet got excited when I made a small comment about painting the motor ... owe well, I'm taking my uptight as$hole to the gym for a bit of exercise!

    From the back that is awesome. Keep the yellow in the rims. Its a wild car, don't get conservative on the rims. Some F1 cars used ti have painted wheels in the 80's including the benetton alfa's that looked great.
    But ........ you could add a yellow twirl going into the center and then people would probably be hypnotized as you drove by,
    Nice pics.

    Back from the gym ... thanks for the concern regarding the weight.

    I just noticed that with the door and boot (engine cover) raised that they are parallel. Now that is cool attention to detail.

    Hope you have a good time at the event you have prepared the car for.

    Thanks for sharing the pics, very very nice. I think crome in place of yellow on rims would pop!

    Somethings leaking out of that Babe or that car. If it's the babe she should see a Doc. soon. Green fluid is usually the sign of serious infection. If it's the car I'd check the cooling system.

    LMAO...!


    i'd like to see some pictures of the car BEFORE those wheels were put on; i can't imagine it would look better with stock wheels... i think the wheels you have on their now are kick-ass... If you HAVE to change them, change them to ALL black...

    i've never seen a yellow Countach; it's different... Definitely looks awesome... Of course, i like the painted engine, too... i like the whole thing... Except for the stickers, of course, but you already said they were for a show and only temporary...

    i love the car... Dude, you did it for a reason; you should stick with it if you like it... That's all that matters...

    Oh, um... and can you post more pictures...?

    A) ceramic coating INSIDE the headers reduces heat transfer to the metal
    B) ceramic coating outside the headers reduces heat transfer to the engine bay
    C) the increase in temperature in the exhaust gas inside the coated header changes the RPM band where the header is tuned

    Hi Pete.Hope you enjoyed the workout.Yesterday in my haste at whatever I was doing,I forgot that all the aluminum in the engine bay comes crinkle painted from the factory.And after,say 15 years,it starts to look a little weird even for a 3000 mile car.They crinkle painted the valve covers black,the injection unit silver,and I dont remember what else.By the time we finished sanding that stuff,I probably saved another 100lbs.Damn Italians,they do that on alot of the 80's F cars too.Its all good,later.

    ps: BTW ceramic coatings work for exhaust and improve HP because they actually keep the heat in the exhaust gas and enable the exhaust pipe to stay cooler. This keeps the exhaust gas speed up as cooling expands and slows the gas.

    This statement is incorrect,it is a law of physics that when pressure and temp. decrease velocity increase,pressure and temp increase velocity decrease,this is the basis of the "Venturi" effect.

    P.S. liked the car(also the rims)
