Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 1971, the Lamborghini Countach gave definition to the term supercar and remains one of the most iconic automotive designs of all time.  Approximately 2,000 examples were built during the 16-year production run, and this 1988 LP 5000 is one of just 610 Quattrovalvole versions featuring the larger 5.2-liter V12 with four-valves-per-cylinder and Bosch fuel injection. The bodywork comes finished in White with matching wheels and a distinctive V-shaped rear wing optioned from the factory at an additional cost of $5k. Having been looked after by the same owner for nearly two decades, this Countach has undergone a recent comprehensive service.

The original Countach prototype was designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone featuring the unmistakable wedge-shaped profile, dramatic angles, pop-up headlights, and signature scissor doors. The aluminum bodywork is laid over a tubular steel spaceframe and features a lightweight Kevlar front and rear decklid introduced for the QV version.  An optional V-shaped rear wing came equipped from the factory and a matching European-style front bumper has been installed. The covers for the rear taillights have been removed along with two of the rear bumperettes.  Some small spider web cracks are noted on the air intakes and rear spoiler as well as a small rust bubble on the passenger-side fender.  The factory 15” OZ Racing wheels are painted to match the exterior and come fitted with original Pirelli P7 R tires

One of the most significant evolutions for the Countach supercar, the LP 5000 QV version debuted a larger 5.2-liter V12 engine featuring four-valves-per-cylinder and Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection.  Up to 414 HP is sent to the rear wheels by way of a 5-speed manual gearbox
