Lamborghini Countach

Scissor-door Italian wedge

The Lamborghini Countach is an Italian sports car produced from 1974 to 1990, famous for its angular wedge shape and scissor doors that open upward.

The Countach became an icon of 1980s excess, its poster adorning countless teenage bedroom walls.

The name comes from a Piedmontese exclamation of astonishment—roughly equivalent to "wow."
