The King of Supercars in 1970 – 1980 : Lamborghini Countach

The Italian word Countach is not easy to be translated straight into English. It is an expression of amazement, like: “Wow, Look at that!”. That was exactly how people reacted when they saw the new Lamborghini Countach prototype in 1971 Geneva Motor Show. His name tells us all: Lamborghini wanted to build the most spectacular sports car of all time, would be far more advanced than his time, an even greater impact than Miura was doing would kill himself, would be the dream car of every student in the following years.

Having tasted first success with Miura, Bertone’s chief designer Marcello Gandini drew an even imaginative and radical design for the new Lamborghini supercar. Its appearance can be described as space-time. Never before has a production car looked as sharp as a knife, with a non-proportional body, a windshield so fast, spectacular looking “scissor doors” (another brilliant gimmick, because “Gullwing”), sky-looking windows, a sharp yet flowing waist line targeted mounting hood and a tail that looked like a spaceship!
