Quite funny actually when the Aventador and it's variants (S, SV, SVJ, etc) are max £500k cars but with the addition of a puny electric motor and supercapacitor (and of course the redesigned exterior although I don't like the looks, the OG Countach is far better looking) it's over two millions, no wonder it's a cynical cash grab and what's even worse is that there are cars like Centenario that doesn't even have the hybrid assistance, just a body kit Aventador and similarly priced liked this car! SMH. I would have understood that the body is made from all carbon fibre but so is that for the SVJ.

Well, if you had the chance to legally steal the money off of corporate psychopaths and white collar criminals who want to emulate them? Wouldn't you? I mean, the whole point of hypercars is after all such that majority of the people buying them have more money than brains. And some don't even make a cent of profit, like the Bugatti is selling everything at a net-loss despite the outrageous price tag. I dunno of any other manufacturer whose cars are both profitable and technologically forward leaning enough to justify the price other than Köenigsegg. C. Von Köenigsegg is both business and engineering genius for what he has been able to achieve. And I still probably wouldn't buy one even if I were a multimillionaire. Because a several million dollar car just makes no sense.

I don't want to be a pessimist, but can we really do something else nowadays? Most popular brands like BMW or Audi are getting fake exhausts, fake vents, fake sounds, worse materials, worse reliability, we got Tesla fandom despite it's terrible materials and the new Lamborghini Countach is just a Sian underneath.

Meanwhile that other car show with gear in it's name is racing a Space Shuttle or whatever. Also cool, but a little further away removed from my reality.

There are some proper design nods in there. The front view is really reminiscent of Countach / Diablo, the straightish bonnet panel gaps and lights, terminator lines of the body panels. The hexagonal wheel arches are a welcome departure from the norm a la Countach original. The rear end looks a bit predictable for a 2023 supercar though. Let us see some differential, or expose some suspension or something a bit mad. That'd do the trick.

Got to love the Ford GT even more after this. They redesign a heritage brand to both respect the heritage look while doing massive changes that make it look like the future. Then they sell it for $400k Lamborghini takes a heritage brand and slaps the badge on a 2nd year body refresh of a Aventador with a hybrid motor and wants $2.6 mil for it. The Countach badges are easily $1 million in the asking price here, the latest in the NFT style of money making. Ferrari building a SUV isn't even as bad as what Lamborghini did here because at least they didn't call it the F-40. Those at Lamborghini should be ashamed at their laziness.
