Oh wow how incredible, I was also born in 1989 (07/17/1989) and I love the 25th anniversary Lamborghini Countach as well very much ( I think it’s the sleekest and most aggressive looking one of them all ) On the one hand I’ve never had a poster of a Lamborghini Countach, on the other hand though I don’t need one at all becuase A. I actually had the pleasure and opportunity of seeing a real 1980s red countach up close at the San Diego car museum back when I was 17 and my oh my was it sleek/cool/beautiful and sporty looking with that awesome wing and it had one of its scissor doors open as well- god I loved that car so very much and thank goodness I have pictures of it😎🧡 ( years later when I was in my mid 20s I actually saw another red 1980s red Countach on display at the Israeli international auto show of which I have pictures of as well ) And B. Because I have to this day at home 2 very beautiful/cool and amazing Lamborghini Countach die cast metal models at home- one of them that’s also red and another one in black= this one is also a very aggressive and cool 5000 quatrovalve, both of which I love and cherish very much😎😊🧡 I would truly love with a passion to actually own a real 1980s countach as well with the wing of course ( perhaps even the 25th anniversary edition) that would be a dream come true🙏😎😇🥂…..

A rich buddy’s dad bought him one of these in the late 80’s.

The Countach is still as iconic and cool now as it was 40 years ago. In a day of cars being overly engineered and overly computerized a car that's almost entirely analogue is more fun and rewarding to drive. I've talked to Countach owners and they seem to really love the car. The one thing they say is don't be afraid to get out and drive them like they were made to be driven.

Thank you for sharing, saw my first Countach 25th anniversary in Sainte-Anne-De-Bellevue, Quebec, Canada in the summer of 1992, It was white and the owner was going to the boardwalk. The owner was holding up traffic because at each speed bump he would stop and open his door to make sure the bottom wouldn't scrape on the bumps. And so awesome as they mentioned even at idle you could feel the engine and its power. A beautiful car.

Jay's videos cover such a range of autos and motorcycles, from the dawn of autos to the present. He also has excellent guests. I prayed for Jay when he was in the hospital and we're blessed with more videos. It is hard in a museum to find a docent who explains the exhibits. I always tag along with the older visitors who have been around cars since they could drive. But over the past 50 years I find fewer who knew the first cars, like the Model T, so Jay's videos are excellent.

So called "poster car". Its true, every teenager in the early 80's had a Countach poster on the wall. I had just a page from a magazine.

I absolutely love Jay Leno, simply a brilliant comic. It was a little tough to watch though, how Jay’s jokes were just going right over the head of this young tight, black T-shirt dude, even when they were discussing history Jay would chime in and tell him some good stories and yet this guy would just give Jay a “deer in headlights”blank stare and then continue on with his rhetoric. What do I say about that, we need more David Lee or Jason Cammisa 😉

Or maybe he was just not into Jay's repetitive old jokes, and did not feel like being interrupted?

@Flies2FLL Месяц назад

I much prefer the "round belly" version of this car. Interesting factoid: These would reach 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, and run the quarter mile in 12.5 @ 115 mph. These are the same specs as a '14-'16 Porsche Cayman S with PDK..... Great video!

@austinmoore5334 Месяц назад

Honestly that’s faster than I expected it to be. Was that like the specs from back in the day or done more recently? Just curious because if it was from the late 80s I wonder what times it could put down today with the grip of some nicer modern tires

@papa_pt Месяц назад

@@austinmoore5334those numbers are very optimistic and probably one shot bests ever done. Most places have the 0-60 around 5 seconds and 1/4 around 13s at 105mph. Plus the corners are where the Cayman would really destroy it
