Lamborghini’s introduction of the Countach at the 1971 Geneva Auto Salon had a devastating impact on the automotive world. The designers at Italy’s Bertone coachworks sculpted the brash and powerful Countach’s curves and edges into a shape that foretold the look of George Lucas’ Star Wars, but by the time that mythical space adventure hit the silver screen, America and the supercar business were experiencing the so-called malaise of the late 1970s. Eventually Chrysler stepped in to help, by 1989 the company was thriving again, celebrating its revival with a special 25th Anniversary Edition Countach that has become a great investment for the dedicated Lamborghini collector and enthusiast.
Lamborghini used the occasion to revamp the Countach’s exterior, integrating more effective intake and cooling scoops and new lower body work for a new look that remains surprisingly refined to the eye. The final and most developed of the Countach line, the 25th Anniversary Edition was also the fastest, hitting 60 MPH in 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 183 MPH on the strength of its 5.2L/455 HP V-12 and 5-speed transaxle.
This typically arresting rare two-owner 1989 25th Anniversary Countach presents in virtually new condition, with an odometer reading of just 17,412 kilometers or 9,554 miles, after a recent service that included fluids and filters, brake fluid flush, air conditioning recharge and new door struts. Finished in dazzling Rosso with a fresh looking Tan leather interior, it offers power windows and air conditioning, power seats and an Alpine stereo, it also features the two most important extra-cost options in this final version: a factory rear spoiler and Ansi exhaust.
One of only 658 produced worldwide and 187 built for the North American market this 25th Anniversary Countach is a strong candidate for any high quality collection.
