    Stallone actually makes the Countach look like a very tall car.

    Yes he is a smallish guy. No idea of the chassis number but Im sure the shoe scuffs are polished out by now and the dent in the rear trunk hood has long since been repaired.

    the light blue countach looks just like the car that i used to drool over while walking past it everyday as a school kid on my way to school in south kensington london. if it's the same car back then it used to have saudi arabian plates. this was back in 1983. is this a custom colour? or a lamborghini one?

    Here's an interesting Countach I noticed in the background of some pics from the Nellis AFB Flying Mile held last this past weekend. Anyone know anything more about it? It appears to those odd rhomboid wing supports...

    Prince of Turkey car...it's popped up a few times since it came out of hiding
    sometime last year. A friend who went to Concorso said the owners wanted to flip it
    and that it is kind of in rough shape...but that's just what I was told....

    The car has a lot of "patina" but I would not describe it as "rough".

    Other than a sympathetic restoration I would not change a thing.

    That's good to hear..always nice to get another opinion.
    Condition of cars is always so subjective...

    It is car #1121038. Built right after my car #1121036.

    Condition is subjective depending on what you looking for :)

    I know this car personnally, it was originally red over white, a very young owner bought the car and repainted it in Diablo orange, painted the hide and lost some parts on that occassion.
    He finally got tired of the car and sold it for 44k CHF, later the car was advertised for 80k CHF, if this car sold now in the state I saw it in 2006 $110K is just ridiculous since you can drop easily the same amount into it to make it original again.
