I like it. Definitely going to be a valuable collectible
edit: after looking at it some more I wish they would have reinterpreted their front bumper to be a bit more modern than just using that strange black horizontal rectangle, which seems to be a very dated design choice. The rest of the car looks more like a modern interpretation but the front bumper looks too much like a direct copy IMO

As someone who was a kid in the 80s (born '76) and who first learned of the Countach in 4th grade when my classmate had the book Lamborghini Countach, by Graham Robson, that opened my eyes! I really like this! The side "NACA" duct, the side vents behind the window, the shape of the rear taillights, and best of all, they used the angular wheel wells! This is gonna look so good in different colors! I can't wait to see the official press shots!

the modern aventador wheels just don't work on this at all...
Looks like a Diablo f-ed a Countach and had an ugly baby... Sorry, not a fan! Should have let the Countach be.... what's next? a New Diablo? and a new Murcielago after that? If so, in about 15-20 years, we should see a new Aventador too.
It's like they ran out of names or something? Very disappointed with this...

I share the same sentiments, my friend.

Although I do think it’s kinda sad in general that many car companies can’t think of new things anymore and have to rely on old models…..I gotta say I like it.
It does bring me back to my cannonball run days. Now we need some voluptuousness to open the door and step outta that bad boy.. And I was 6 when that movie came out!!

My first impression is a Delorean with a body kit.
but then again, new designs like that only increases the value of old school Countachs/Diablos/Murcis.

You can’t un-see that Stallone poster, and that was just after the always-fine Cannonball Run cleavage! C’mon!
that said, this is most certainly not a Countach. Tribute with some flair, sure, but leave my memories alone. And the wheels: total mismatch. The original had those small 15” ones that almost made the car stand out. The AV wheels become a focal point as does the forced triangular scoop in the door. Seems contrived, but what do I know.
