My DREAM FIRST DRIVE in the New LAMBORGHINI COUNTACH!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
I can't believe this day from my dreams! Join me for my first drive with the new Lamborghini Countach LPI800-4; the latest few-off series hypercar. I'm at the Lamborghini factory for a full experience of what the car is all about, heading up into the Italian mountains. Let's go!
Limited to only 112 customer cars, linking to the LP112 codename of the original Countach, this particular example is car 0, that Lamborghini have very kindly taken out from the Museum for this opportunity to share with you what it's all about. Following on the heels of the Reventon, Veneno, Centenario and Sian, it's the latest road going model from the series that also includes the track-only Sesto Elemento.
Powered by a 6.5l NA V12 with Lamborghini's Supercapacitor system that was introduced with the Sian and Sian Roadster, the Countach offers up 814hp and a top speed in excess of 355km/h (221mph). However, this is a car that tells an emotional story, 50 years after the first concept Countach was launched back in 1972; a model that lasted 16 years in production and set a very high bar for iconic supercars.
Visually, the new Countach features design elements from the likes of the P400/P500, Periscopio, 5000 Quattrovalvole, and 25th Anniversary editions of the original, while being based on the platform of the Aventador, which itself is soon to be superceded by a long-awaited new model. In many ways it's the last of an era, the last special vehicle on this platform, and one that brings a glorious heritage no with it.
This particular car is finished in Bianco Siderale over a red heritage interior; inspired by the spec of the very Countach owned by Ferruccio Lamborghini himself at the time. After taking a full walkaround to go through the specification and understand the details of the car, it's time to head into the hills to find some stunning scenery with the hills blanketed in a layer of snow. This is absolutely a day from my dreams; the car, location, experience, thank you to Lamborghini!
Thanks for watching, Tim

the Countach was my favorite car back then and now 50 years later it's back 😎👍
Of all the cars I want… I honestly would just love to have this one. As bad as I want a Gemera, the Countach is just a stunning piece of art! Aesthetically and mechanically!

@@kevinkarbonik2928 That's a strange way of saying you don't know what a Gallardo looks like. The general consensus is that it deeply resembles the original Countach so you're probably on your own with the contrarian opinion.
Beautiful tribute to my all time favourite supercar. Just gorgeous ❤
I love all of your videos Tim, your channel is my favourite car channel, I have to say I'm in love with this car, it's absolutely gorgeous and the scenery is breathtaking, fantastic, thank you for this video. I think this is one I'll be rewatching.
Definitely an exciting experience. Probably it wasn't expecting those weather conditions.......twisty hill roads surrounded by much more snow than in the Swiss Alps, behind the wheels of a limited edition, precious lambo. Not an ideal context for a drive like but what a scenery, what a view. White on white
Love the new Countach, looks amazing, they killed the (re)design 😍😍 Front end is simple but fantastic, rear is crazy and modern like Sian, it looks great from every direction 🤩🤩
Shmee having a great time. Love the way you talk about cars, your enthusiasm is infectious. Thank you for sharing this with us 👍👍👍👍
You just keep killing it! Amazing experience.

EPIC video! Very cool to see you behind the wheel of this legendary car 🤩🤩👌👌
This might be one of the top 10 videos of your KZread career
From a 812 competizione to a 2022 Countach now that’s incredible content

Yikes. That road in those conditions in that awesome car, you are a really brave man. I do reviews as well but that is out of my comfort zone. Love the Countach. Magical
Couldn't stand It when it was first shown, but it's grown on me and looks amazing
What a car, what a sound, truly a masterpiece. Beautiful scenery as well, I have a planned trip to Lamborghini and Ferrari. I'm very excited for it and cannot wait. I don't know exactly what to expect, but surely some amazing cars on display. Thanks again Tim for this video!

That is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. Seriously.
As a huge original Countach fan, I was sort of "meh" about this car when it was revealed at Pebble Beach, but it grew on me. Once I get over the differences between the two cars, I appreciate the lines and looks of the new one. I think calling it a Countach was ballsy on Lamborghini's part, but it's their model and they have a right to do what they want.

Re inventing the Countach is no different than new Fiat 500, the new mini, the new beetle, the new Ford GT. Those have even been done multiple times each. And IMHO it's a lot nicer homage than the fat electric mustang.

@@karstenpedersen7749 The E-Stang isn't meant as an homage to the Mustang. The Mustang still exists in its pony car configuration. The E-Stang is Ford trying to diversify and grow a model into a sports brand by making more than just coups. Much like Lamborghini did with the LM002 and now the Urus... or Porsche with the Cayenne and Panamera. They're models, not replacements.

@@swordmonkey6635 I know that, but it's still a cheap trick using an iconic name for attention. Similar to making a minivan version of the 500. Atleast the Countach is more honest in that respect, it's actually similar in style and goals.
Great video and great car as always Shmee.
The snow-capped matches the color of the car and it's so nice
I generally don't watch videos of cars I either can't afford or can't buy, but there's always an exception to the rule and this most certainly is that. Great review of a truly special car.

A phenomenal look inside and out, of an absolutely amazing machine. Thanks for the drive!
Tim just getting access to ALL the cars we love to see and hear about. Thanks Shmee 150 Nice subtle spec and much better functional design than I'm sure some of us anticipated from the revival of the model.
Really really enjoying the content on the channel it’s just brilliant keep up the good work everyone 👍👍👍
Thank you Lamborghini and Shmee150 for sharing these cool moments in your collaboration! ❤
I said to myself OK just "another" Aventador just looking different but then I heard the sound from the inside. Wooow not sure how they did it but it really reminds me the analog sound of the old Countach I know from my PC racing simulator. Super cool !!!
Really liking the roadside run-by footage 👍
Awesome video Tim Mate 👍🔥👍❤👍 So jealous of you driving the new countach thru those stunning mountains of Lamborghini Stronghold 🤘🔥🤘
I'm quite surprised you drove it back Shmee ! What a MACHINE !
What an awesome car and colour combo for the background. When it comes to car specs.. Schmee, you are the top!
I wasn’t sure about it when I first saw the renders but I really like it they have done a fantastic job with the update .
Beautiful tribute to my all time favourite supercar.)))
Hats off to you Tim , you certainly have dynamic travel energy.
The Countach is soooo cool! Thanks for such nice videos ❤❤
Loving the lamborghini content!!
The exterior driving segments were incredible and a good show of this car.
Awesome video, exciting stuff for the future avendator replacement. On an unrelated note, what is the watch your wearing at the moment? Looks really cool with the transparent case
Seeing my home roads on your channel is such a weird but pleasant view! The Countach is just amazing too
gorgeous Lambo! the exterior, the interior, that spec... flawless!
Is it an option to own one of these? This is a modern legend for sure. That spec is perfect aswell. Love the content, keep it up. Hope to see some of the Fast Fords soon. Much love from South Africa 😁 👍🏻

Tim is very lucky to drive this piece of machinery, I hope you enjoyed
love the rolling shots
Beautiful automobile ,looks great with the snow, it's funny looking at that car and thinking that Mr. Lamborghini started out making tractors....Thanks Shmeeee !
Saw this very same car in Monterey for Car Week when it was unveiled. Pictures & video do it ZERO justice! The body lines look so much more pronounced in person and you get a real sense of the scale of it. Pretty striking looking car. And it sounded phenomenal when they started it. Love all the throwback design details that pay tribute to various models of the original. As one Lamborghini rep said "This car is meant to capture the essence of the original in a modern form, not replace it". And I think they succeeded in that regard.
The engine sound is perfectly raw pitched, I love to hear it in the video. Small chance I will ever hear it in person
At first I didn't know if I like the looks of that recreation of a classic, but the looks are really growing on me, especially in the white with black accents! I think that's going to be a nice collectible
Love seeing footage of the car driving by from the outside
Hello Tim wish you a good day and thanks once again for the amazing content cheeers 😜
since I saw this car at SOC Croatia in Zagreb it has become my favourite super car the looks, the sound, everything is amazing tnx for a vid Tim
When I first saw a Countach as a kid I was blown away. My favourite lambo for sure.
ONLY TIM CAN TAKE US TO THE LAMBORGHINI FACTORY & PICK UP THE LATEST COUNTACH THEN DRIVE THREW THOSE EPIC ROAD VIEWS, GREATLY APPRECIATE ALL THE OUT OF CAR DRIVE BY VEIEWS ,I FEEL THE JOY EVERY TIME YOU SHARE A VLOG WITH US THANK YOU SOO MUCH ‼️😎‼️
Hi Shmee I'm guys! MASSIVE content lately! Keep up the greet work!

Great video as always 👏🏼
A naming nomenclature that actually makes sense. Other automakers, take note. What a beautiful nod to my childhood dream!
So awesome ! I had a 5 ft. Countach (Black w/ gold wheels)poster as a kid . 🤘🏼🏁
Those flyby clips really add to the video 😊
Stunning in this white latest Countach on white hills landscape drive! And what a supercar it has become after a half century. A very lucky Tim!
Sounds incredible!
Great video. Shmee’s insurance agent: “WT…Is that black ice? Raise his premium.” LOL!!…The rear is best part of this tribute car, perfect modern design of the Legend.🥂
Really like the styling on the new countach, very nice spec on that example too 👌
OMG this is my absolute dream car! If I had a chance to choose any car in the world it would be this one. Everything about this car oozes sexy! You are so lucky to get to drive it.
This is probably my favourite Lambo, absolutely beautiful!

I like the way they subtly integrated older design cues. My personal opinion is that you really have to like the car and its history to pay that price.

The first picture I ever hung on my wall was a Countach in the 80's before I could even drive. Watching your smile going thru those curves made me feel like a kid again! Love it!
Every time Shmee, every time. You get into a Lambo V12 and you’re left speechless. You need one
Just got around to seeing this video. The Countach sadly just comes off as an Aventador homage to the original Countach. But having said that, the Aventador is such an amazing machine. The sounds, the anger, the rawness is what makes these machines great. Design wise they did an amazing job bringing the Countach design language to modern day. What an opportunity to drive his hybrid machine around the mountain passes near the factory. And this also explains how the SF90 tour went from France to the Dolomites!
Absolutely epic Tim! Big love, kindest regards, Richard U.K
Absolutely lovely! 👊🤍
