I heard from my dealer that Lambo will be showing a limited edition (around a 100) car which will be a modern version of the Countach. It'll be based on the Aventador but look like a modern Countach. The car is to celebrate the 50 year anniversary of the Countach. Price will be similar to the Sian, not sure when they'll be showing the car. My guess is Quail which is still on but we shall see.

How are they going to cool that thing down?

Looks great and where are all the cooling vents?!
I'm assuming that's not an official artist's rendering and that we've still yet to see a glimpse of the final design from Lamborghini.

That said, I'd assume this design would use the fish gills for the intake and the "ears" from the original Countach would still be used for the radiators on this, but would go up and down as needed like on Murciélago and Aventador. I'd like to see that on the actual car actually, would be a great callback while keeping to form and modernizing.
I saw this artists view of what the Countach Tribute Car could look like and I fell in love.

Front is actually very accurate. Golden "Countach" text in the front is also correct. Back lights had more of a Sian-look.

If the underbody is VERY carefully worked, then the back end won't be hopping around like a rabbit that received a shot of speed to his butt, and a torniquet on his waist prevented it from getting to his upper portions, like the first Countach, but from the wide shovel front end, it looks like plenty of downforce will be up front, but high-mounted air intakes spell rear end lift, even with the little wing.

Not that anyone will ever drive this at speed...
That is one AMAZING rendering! It looks honestly perfect! The perfect Countach homage to the original design prototype. We can only hope it looks this good!
Just think how nice it will look with some flares of the type the original had, and even MORE rubber.

Lamborghini rly r going all-in with Countach.

"Innovation has been the backbone of Automobili Lamborghini since its creation in 1963. So, it was our pleasure to welcome Phil Schiller- Apple Fellow, to discuss how our company participated in making change happen in the automotive world and how Countach reshaped the idea of the Super Sports Car."

Someone who saw the car told me it was in white with white leather.

He also said the car is not as "angular" as before.

Angular as “before”, before as in not as angular as the Aventador or was their another concept/design that was changed?

Sorry but he didn't tell me exactly, we had a really quick chat.

Same! Can't wait!
Strange, Lamborghini still hasn't posted the latest "Countach Legacy" video (Normally scheduled for yesterday).

I’m surprised how these things don’t leak more often frankly, I enjoy the anticipation/build up. Hopefully it will live up to the Countach name.

Yes, I agree with you.... Personally, the wait is really unbearable.

Do you really think the amount of posts on a private Lamborghini forum on the internet prove anything of who I am, the amount of cars I own, if I am a collector, or if actually got the chance to see the renders of this special edition lambo with 814hp? Thats interesting. Everyone can sit here all day and spam posts. They will show the car in August during Monterey Car Week which hopefully helps your ego feel better =D Hold on!
Just got the notification via Unica about Countach.

Can’t wait to see it, in your opinion, have they done the Countach justice?
