All that effort (and mind-blowing it is)...but when he starts it,...no raucious V12 noise.........

I still think THIS Lambo would sound sexy with the fuel injected V8. Probabaly go just as hard too.

yea.. the 8 is the only thing that puts it into the replica domain by far.. would be lush to have pinched a v12 from somewhere.. pretty impossible tho I bet.. nice mercedes or bmw v12 maybe :D

sure no doubt it sounds good.. but the real countach never had a wee 8 in it ! :D

Have seen a white one floating around chch on occasion.. think its a replica but sounds pretty good and looks the part. white with white interior etc. fuck all visibility
