I have friends who own a Diablo. They love it. It does break a lot though... good for keeping mechanics occupied.
Lol!

One day when I have too much money, I'll buy a Countach.

I don't think I have ever seen a car with a spoiler on the hood before. That looks very weird.

Whole car looks dated and weird. Wasn't it a red Countach that Dumb and Dumber bought with their new found wealth?

I would have killed for a Countach when I was a teen.

Exact words were over 500 hp, so it could be the 427 or a variation of it.
I was excited to hear that, because if their driving around in them now, it won't be long after the initial base model is out that we will be offered the more powerful version

The only European Supercar I would even consider save for a '65 Ferrari GTB.

Outstanding pictures, thanks for sharing. I like the halo effect from the haze in the atmosphere in the photos, makes the cars almost look holy.

Nice Countach too. It always amazed me how that car, aerodynamically speaking, was a poor design. It just looks so damn sleek.

Cool pics and great idea having them in the same photograph. The Vette looks great in that color.

I had one back then and still do in my office and I'm 49yrs old. The Alpine stereo poster with the side view of a red Countach.

We've toured multiple car factories and museums but the Lambo factory and museum several years ago was the best by far.

Thanks for the pics. If I get a C7 it will be my 3rd Silver Corvette.

And people are complaining about how poor the rear visibility out of the C7 is. Cool car and looks real clean. And loved the first Cannonball movie.

very cool, and strange bedfellows. But what are you guys doing at a Sonic? Isn't there a high end restaurant or a Ritz-Carlton nearby?
