The Countach emphasized what the ’80s were for a lot of kids who were car fans. The Countach had doors that opened up like the Batmobile, and a wing that looks straight out of a movie. The performance was amazing at a time when many automakers were getting constricted. Smog regulations didn’t slow the Countach down. The car came with a choice of strong V8 engines during its run, all mounted to a manual transmission. To this day, the Countach is a very beautiful car that has many notable owners including Jay Leno.

Collectors have been overlooking the Countach in recent times because of more relevant Lamborghini models. But if you want to get one of the most iconic supercars of the late ’70s the Countach is it. The car still provides thrills to this day, and an iconic look that no automaker has ever managed to match.
