1. That’s me!!

2. Both a countage and demi Moore were poster material 40 years ago, luckily you can still make one as beautiful and tight as it was back then with enough money.

3. That restaurant is five minutes from my house

4. Ahhhh so that’s where Stradman has been! He has just picked up this car and is driving it back gathering footage.

5. The carburetted ones are probably so valuable because many of them have burnt to the ground. That happend to a terrible example a few months after I drove it once 40 years ago: NEVER MEET YOUR HEROES!

6. I dont think anybody could handle daily driving one of them.

7. "gets gaped by a civic" brilliant Lamborghini

8. I hate white car's of any kind, doesn't turn your head.

9. that is what we call 'debile' in french

10. honestly, id rather cross country a lancia stratos.

11. I’m English and went to Goodwood race track in the mid 90s and met a guy that had a black car, he at the time only paid 50k for the car, it’s nuts how they have grown in price.

12. My poster I grew up looking at was a orange gallardo. I’ll have one someday

13. Mine was all black but I'm in the club

14. id buy a z06…..

15. Bro should be SBF for Halloween.

16. From someone who did actually grow up lusting after a Countach, the poster was red, not white. Can't help wondering if this guy was in kindergarten when production ended?

17. No such thing as a “triple white” countach unless the top has been removed and the targa soft top is white. Triple anything refers to the convertible or soft targa top color

18. Now i gotta have Brooks Burgers for lunch today, thanks John lol

19. Every 80s car needs the same stuff when it gets that old

20. I'd do it as a daily. Ive done crazier. Just not in snow.

21. I have always wondered why Countaches in particular get such a bad rap from people who simply expect the car to run smoothly after being garaged for several years or an extended period of time. Thank you very much John for clearing that out. Your knowledge about Lamborghinis in general is priceless.

22. I must say, my favorite story tellers so far are Bob, John, Arne, Doug, Travis and Christopher Michaels. (And of course you too, Ed)

23. For me the best spec is… Euro LP5000 QV, black exterior, red interior, gold wheels, no wing.
    That was my Countach poster.

24. So some dude bought a used car from used car dealer. The end.

25. Those msd boxes don’t like heat. I replaced 3 on my car, relocated under the dash inside the car, never failed again.

26. That shirt John is wearing, no bueno! Personally, I would blur it out.

27. mans flexing w the balenciaga shirt

28. This story was a waste of time lol

29. What I love most about the Countach is how many parts it shared with my Fiat X1/9

30. Interesting story. I always think, until a car's had some cold start, traffic and done a good 4 hour round trip to somewhere, you can never really call it 'ready'.
