Countach, the ultimate supercar

2 inches! Some may remember this photo I posted some years back.The doors are VERY different between my S1 and CountachQV's QV. I wish I had the seamstress tape that I have now instead of the typical metal measuring tape but you get the idea.

despite Dr Carpenter's esteem title, she may have a point about optical illusions but she is dead wrong about color and the effects of lighting on it because she has obviously have little understanding of it.

we have light boxes to evaluate color swatch in various environments.

 

Thanks never knew it was that much, definitely prefer the low roof with Bravo wheels and your color is verrry nice.

Best regards,

also makes your turn signals look backwards too!

 

Of course that would depend on the build of the driver. I'm 6' and sling a lowbody around with no safety issues. Taller, wider drivers would want the extra 2 inches.

 

Thats okay, those wheels and that color....(to die for)

 

I agree, your pushing the limits on height for a lowbody.

 

Does anybody have photos with all the early interior trim combinations?
can we see them?

 

Thank you, Joe.
Joe is correct. All photos of this car, to the way back beginning, have the turn signals like this. I am very pleased no one had switched them prior to my hands on the car.
Plus the old CH sticker on the rear was a Swiss give away.

 

That's interesting because Valentino did the same thing, in 2011 in NY, to 1006.......rolled his eyes and took his hand, reached out as to grab the light, and twisted his wrist upside down. I just smiled.

 

I guess from Valentinos point of view, it´s just useless add-on, which brings weight...

 

Swiss spec is more than reversal of the turn signal lens, but that wasn´t the topic.

Seeing the Us style ,exhaust manifolds,in combination with the big muffler box and carburators, looking at this parts list,must be the worst performing qv.

 

GLA12997 never had those plates under the engine/gearbox, she had also special headers... it was Patrick's car, he could register her wherever he wanted, the Mimran family has more than a single home place.

 

I've noticed something of that nature as well, often times with 400s cars though. This well known (and beautiful) example seems straight to my eyes but the gap between the front bonnet and bumper seems larger than some later cars. Perhaps I'm overanalyzing.
