The Lamborghini Countach stands unrivaled among sports cars and supercars as an automotive icon of unparalleled historic significance. Revered as the ultimate poster car among enthusiasts, this 80s Italian marvel blazed a trail for successors like the Diablo, Murcielago, Aventador, and the latest Revuelto HPEV.
With early models fetching staggering prices, Lamborghini’s modern tribute, the Countach LPI 800-4, emerges as the next collector-grade supercar from the Raging Bull brand. Designed to honor the Countach’s iconic wedge shape, the LPI 800-4 embodies the essence of its predecessor.
The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 boasts a track-focused configuration courtesy of its lightweight gloss black y-spoke wheels and high-performance carbon ceramic brakes. The rear view is particularly striking, featuring Sián-style taillights and a finely-tuned quad-exhaust system, completing its menacing look.
Power comes from a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine, coupled with a 48-volt electric motor integrated into the gearbox, delivers an impressive 814 horsepower, paying homage to Lamborghini’s legacy of raw power and emotion. The Countach LPI 800-4 accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.8 seconds, reaching a top speed of approximately 221 mph.
At their Monaco auction scheduled on May 10-11, RM Sotheby’s will be auctioning one of 112 Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 produced and one of only five finished in Luci del Bosco and the only example featuring a Bianco Leda interior.
Offered with just 110 kilometers on the odometer and recently registered, this Countach LPI 800-4 presents a truly exclusive opportunity for discerning supercar collectors who are looking for an pristine example of Lamborghini’s homage to the legendary Countach that debuted back in 1974.
