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.

Why r Bugatti whips more expensive than Lambos n F-Cars?
Exclusivity. Bugatti is getting milked the new models every few months but the 1% can't get enough. The DIVO is already selling for well over a $1 million+ list.
I would probably be too nervous to drive it anywhere. I get a little nervous even now when people follow too close to me.
"Although Winkelmann would not be drawn on specific details about these models, sources suggest one is a final Aventador-based special using similar supercapacitor technology to the 808bhp Sián FKP 37 hypercar – and it is possible that the other will be the first glimpse at the Aventador’s replacement."

So one is Aventador-Countach and the other is a preview of Aventador successor? Oh and it seems it's hybrid from this moment on.
The "preview of Aventador successor" part seems odd since the actual successor is only 1 year away according to that article. What could that be? A hypercar?
Winkelmann also noted that only one of the 2 new V12's will have the supercapacitor technology while the other one won't. So my guess is that the Countach special variant will be without it (which makes sense as a homage and final sendoff to the non-hybrid assisted V12) and the second car could have the supercap as a preview of the upcoming hybrid successor. Price point of that second V12 car will be interesting. Would it make sense for them to do Sian-level pricing for both? That would be a lot of highly limited special editions but knowing Winkelmann it wouldn't surprise me.
Sounds like we'll have another Reventon which basically previewed the Aventador. Not sure if there's a market for a $1m+ Aventador with the replacement around the corner.

It'll be interesting to see what they come up with.

That's a valid point. Aventador Series has run its course IMO. I think it'll be for buyers who literally can't wait for the successor to arrive so they buy the preview version of it. How big is that market?

That made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

They might as well slap some stickers on a Huracan and call it quits.
That is extremely underwhelming to me, and even a little ugly.
I see zero worthy resemblance to the real thing and lots of Fiero kit car aspects. Why cheapen a gorgeous Huracan with that?
Lol yh the concept is horrendous. He shoulda gone with an Aventador instead.
Well being new to the supercar realm, and not having had any interest in cars when I was younger, to me I like the artist's rendition. I simply love the clean, elegant Huracan lines, and so, although I would never buy one, I like it. What do they say, there is always an outlier.........in this case yours truly.
That has some cues from the Cala concept!
Well, It looks like the 17th and 18th of May will be the time for the lucky ones who will have the privilege to see this "Countach Tribute" I hope that some here will be able to give us some little information.
I was told it was based off the sian not off the aventador. Supposed to be the new hyper car.

The Lamborghini Sián is based on the Aventador so this new Countach is based on a car that is based on another car lol.
Very true just more so the hybrid technology
