Excellent choice; love the white because it shows off the black corking on the arch extensions and the (painted) black air intakes so well. Congrats for going for carbs, round-belly and not a low-body Countach too, all the correct choices. I bought my QV back in 2010 and even though I'm lucky enough to have driven almost everything, having a Countach stare back at you whenever you open the garage door remains very special. My top tip would be to fit a new set of Pirelli P7 tyres, if the previous owner hasn't done so. They make a big difference. Next, check the geometry and the condition of all the rose-joints in the suspension. Once you've done that, simply keep filling it with super-unleaded (never check the mpg) and drive the wheels off it. That's the best way to enjoy the craziness of this legendary supercar, that's always hard work but also so damn rewarding to drive.
That was a nice shout out Doug gave you for your channel there Harry, and he was 100% correct! Best automotive channel on UA-cam. Watching you get your Countach back up to scratch recently was an absolute joy! But even more so your Testarossa, absolutely love that car!
Nothing is better than seeing a genuine car guy enjoying their car and sharing it with the world! So happy for you Doug, you're building one hell of a collection!
Seriously. I drew this car so darn often when I was younger, lol. Very happy for Doug in this one! It really shows that the best car doesn't always have to be the most expensive. I can't wait to own another cheap and dirty 99-04 Mustang GT. Nothing too fancy, but man do I love driving them. It just feels so good to me! Maybe someday.
I don’t know if I’ve ever commented on a video on YT ever before. I have been a subscriber of Doug’s long before he reached half a million subs, but seeing the pure joy, smile, laughter, and excitement in his voice at the start of him driving this car is the ultimate character arc of watching him all these years. I couldn’t be more excited for him, and I couldn’t be happier watching this unfold.
Hoovie is 6 ft 2 and he also bought one. Matt Farrah is not the ideal customer either he also has one along with Harry Metcalf from Harry’s Garage who’s over 6 ft tall. But they look past that and buy one for the overall experience and investment potential. Besides it’s not like it’s going to be the daily in your car collection.
I sat in a 25 th Anniversary Countach with 650 miles on it and it fit me absolutely perfectly. Like it was made for me. I have long arms and 5ft 10 inches. Weigh 200 Lbs I felt like that’s the max to be comfortable the Countach. Definitely built for your average to tall Italian.
@@DougDeMuro I have a 98 Mazda B4000 (ford ranger) and it has 118k miles on it. I bought it for $2500 7 years ago, it's now worth close to 10k, the right cars bought at the right time will go up in value, specifically because you cannot buy anything like it today. The current ford ranger is a fat unreliable pig compared to the old rangers, and people know it. The maverick is too small/lacks capability. a Countach has always been special, but you can never buy something new like it. It's like your video on the Bugatti where they hid all the screens for the same reason. Because in 10 years all that tech will look stupid and date the car.
Having watched your channel for years, this is the happiest I've seen you driving a car; great choice, congratulations you just bought my 1980s poster car!
There is something so satisfying in seeing someone so passionate about a car, with tons of specific requirement which were met, the luckiest deal possible... and then you pause the video at 22:47 - Doug is on top of his joy... and his head is touching the ceiling of the car :D
I couldn't agree more, I'm here in bed watching in the dark because I couldn't sleep, and within 5-seconds of watching the video, you couldn't slap the smile off of my face for anything, and I think it stayed right there throughout the entirety of the video. His "obsessed, obsessed!!' remark as he was driving it, is so genuine how could you not be happy for him. And at the same time grateful that he shares, without a shadow of a doubt, his true self while he is filming and talking to us as if we are on the phone with him having a conversation while he's driving it. Thank you Doug!
For me it's the fact he still has his unique, distinct character that he's always had. I've been a subscriber since he had the 360 and it's great to see him diversify his content too
What I love about Doug compared to other car UA-camrs is that every car he buys seems very well thought out and purposeful. Also, Doug is a great storyteller. I just hope we get the ItalDesign Columbus review eventually.
@@DougDeMurohey Doug...congrats on all of your vehicle purchases. Its nice to see a car guy get car guy cars and actually use them as intended and fun ways people may have never thought of. I love your content. Keep up the excellent work. I will keep enjoying your vour content
His reactions, while driving, simply shows how much a REAL automobile gives you an 'experience'. No one will EVER react like that when they drive their vacuum cleaner... I mean... electric car..
That look on your face says it all. My dad bought an '82 Countach as his midlife crisis car. I'll never forget going into NYC with him to pick it up at the dealership. He was like a kid. On the ride home, my dad -- a very serious guy (albeit brilliantly witty man) -- was grinning from ear to ear with unbridled joy. I was also lucky to have a dad who wanted me to share in that joy, and made the car available to me to drive wherever I wanted. (Picked up my high school prom date with it!) It was a challenging car to drive, but worth the effort. The old man kept his for about two and a half years, ultimately trading it in as it was just too unreliable. He was sad the day he traded it. His new car, a BMW 633 csi, was a terrific car though, and in many ways a better performance car than the Lambo. But up until the day he died, if I ever reminisced about the Countach, he would smile and say, "She was a beast, wasn't she?" She really was. Enjoy your new toy, sir. You've earned it.
I remember seeing a bmw 633 in 1993 in italy when I was in the service. Driven by another US serviceman. I had a GEO storm gti - then later, a used 1990 Lada 4x4
LMAO there's always that one fake virtuous person who'll claim wealthy people should donate instead of spending on the things they like. How do you know he's not already a charitable person who also enjoys his cars? Being woke is more embarrassing.
@@cindibeazmont9428 that’s ridiculous. Doug - and everyone else for that matter - is allowed to enjoy the money he has made. Im sure he does many philanthropic things and every penny he has doesn’t need to be donated.
I love how Doug takes us through the whole experience. I feel like I was in the car with him and seeing him that happy makes me feel happy as if we both went for the drive. Congrats. That is the coolest super car!
First the Carrera GT and now a Countach. You’re growing a hell of a collection, Doug. I’m really happy for you, man. You’ve more than earned all the success you’ve accrued over the years.
@@Mamo878 it's the one I'd have, for the price and the mystique of it. Such a timeless beauty, and that V-8. The Countach will always be a childhood romance car, but it doesn't sound good like the Ford GT, and it's not as driveable. Same for the CGT, but another icon. Countach for bucket list cool factor, Ford GT for driveability, CGT for exhaust note and exotic car fix.
I'm gonna shamelessly ride your comment coattail, he was rocking around in that chair so hard i was worried it would tip over and mess up the car's bodywork
Dough i couldn’t be happier for you, most of these cars are bought by people with money who just wanna look fly but to see a car enthusiast enjoying them, and truly appreciating them feels good. We’re all living the dream through you
Seeing Doug attain all the cars he dreamed of is so rewarding as someone who’s watched him for so long genuinely achieving a car guys dream Congrats Doug you absolutely deserve it!! ❤
23:58 "This is soo cool! I can't see anything... it's lovely!!!" Like a child in a candyshop. This is how real and honest enthusiasm and happiness looks like. Good choice Doug!
"When speed is available in a KIA Crossover, it doesn't matter anymore" LMAO😂. You couldn't be anymore spot on, Doug! Love the car and the video. You're absolutely right. It isn't about speed, it's about the whole supercar experience. Great 80's car!
That's what the mY tEsLa Is FaStEr!!!! bros don't understand. It's not about 0-60, it's about the whole experience. A Countach is an assault on the senses and requires constant engagement. It's an unreliable piece of crap slapped together by chain-smoking wine-drinking Italians and that's what makes it so great.
He is so correct. I was driving a C8 Corvette a couple weekends ago on some mountain roads and I came up on a VW Bus going slow. We were on a nice straightway, so I decided to pass this VW. I punch it and the C8 gave me all she got as I'm passing this bus, when I look up in the rearview mirror, and what do I see? A KIA. A KIA EV6 hanging step for step with a Corvette as we are passing this bus. So, yeah, he is 100% spot on. lol
I SOOOOOOOOOO needed to see an exterior shot of Doug zipping by in this thing. ONLY thing that was missing from this vid. Douglas.. take it out again after you got it dialed in.. take a buddy with. Give us some exterior takes in this thing. Not seeing it in action and hearing it fly by is leaving me feeling robbed. But it's the easiest fix of all. 🤞👍🤘🙌🤝
I saw a Countach on the road in 1980 and I swore I would buy one someday, I could afford one years later but a growth spurt in HS to 6'8" killed that dream. Congrats Doug
As a Millennial-car guy I understand exactly what Doug meant by buying a car that has "an experience that cannot be matched". 3 years ago I bought a stock Mazda RX-7 with very low miles at a very, VERY reasonable price; at first I was very skeptical to buy a car with an engine that not everyone was familiar with, not to mention the horrible stories you heard online about reliability. At the end I just couldn't say no to that gorgeous look and pulled the trigger. I've done so many mistakes in life just like everyone else but I'm happy to report that my RX-7 is NOT one of them. Just stick to a very strict maintenance schedule and makes every other impracticality disappear. I know this comment may sound pretty cheesy but I felt that this video spoke to me in so many levels. Thank You Doug!
I burst out laughing when the cut to Doug driving happened and showed his head against the headliner! 😂 Big congratulations on all your success Doug, you seem happier than ever and you deserve it all! Cheers from Pittsburgh
Yep the original supercar that started it all and thanks doug for buying the right one. You know the ridiculous anniversary model with all the crappy ground effects and stuff. Yours is perfect.
"I can't see anything... it's lovely!" is a statement, I absolutely didn't expect from doug, but oh so understand and feel. I'm really happy for you, and seeing how much joy you get out of it is fantastic!
Doug: the type of guy whose joy is pure and relatable. Just like when you bought your Carrera GT I’m here living vicariously through you and I always love how normal and relatable you seem. Awesome content and congrats on the new Lamborghini!
I’ve been watching your channel since 2015 and to see how happy you were making this video is the most joy I’ve seen in your videos. Congratulations man!
@@samtsui841 Unless Doug has 1 hundred million dollars in the bank, he is in no position to buy a half million dollar, plus car. It is not becoming at all.
I have to say, my son and I watch all your videos and love them. To me, this is the best video by far! What a car! Congrats and please drive it a lot!!!
So proud of Doug recently, he’s done so many big things and is living his life to the fullest potential. As someone who’s been watching since the Ferrari 360/AM Vantage era it’s awesome to see
I LOVE this video. The sheer JOY you display says it all. My wife wondered why I bought A 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo that needs work. But then she saw me giggling during a drive just like you do in this video. THIS. IS. WHY. WE. LOVE. CARS. The analog experience, the "poster car" from your childhood, I totally get it. Congrats! And I totally agree, the Countach IS the ultimate supercar, especially your exact model. I'd also accept a red one. Ahem.
I was smiling just as big as you were Doug. It’s getting tiring seeing so many people buying so many cars on you tube. But when you do, we can see your genuine happiness. The way you explain your rational for purchase, the smile on your face, your admittance of being crazy, it all just fits. Congrats to you. I just found my Countach poster I had hanging in my room when I was a kid.
Doug's the type of guy to represent what it means to be a true car enthusiast; from ripping in his Countach to pouring over the features of a Toyota Previa! Congratulations Doug!
25:58 “it’s not incredibly fast by modern standards, but I’ve got cars for that” 🔥🔥🔥 that line was a banger. Let ‘em know, Doug! The Countach is smaller than I thought it would be, which is actually kind of nice. Awesome video and review as always.
The "test" drive was awesome. It sounded amazing, but i found myself crossing my fingers that it didnt just explode for no reason cruising at 75. I too had this one on my bedroom wall. Never made it to the point of being able to afford one. Way to go Doug. I watch almost all of your vids. Dont ever change.
I'm old enough to remember having a poster of THIS CAR on my wall as a kid. I drew it on every note book I had in the 4th grade. Iconic doesn't even begin to describe it. I'd have one if I could afford it. Congrats Doug!
This is probably my favourite video by Doug. Such unabashed joy, genuine, enthusiastic consumption and love for the motor vehicle. Tremendous. Great content
Love how informative the video is, not even just about the car itself, but it gives you insight into a whole other part of the car community and different perspectives on ownership and what's enjoyable. That said, cheers Doug, you absolutely deserve this!
"It's so cool, I can't see anything!" -It's a total hoot just to see you so happy! I'm so glad you bought it and showed it to us, what a great experience just to watch. This is what makes you the best at what you do.
I could have *never* seen this coming a decade ago when I was watching your old CTS-V videos. Congrats, Doug! It's been so fun watching your channel grow and seeing you grow as well as a person over the last 10 years. It's so awesome to see you get to genuinely enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Bob Wallace, was a New Zealander test driver, automotive engineer and mechanic who played a big role in developing early Lamborghini road cars, so yes the cars were definitely tested. Of course not to forget Valentino Balboni was chief test driver at Lamborghini.
It's really heartwarming to see someone enjoying what he does so much as you do. Very happy for you! That's a beautiful and legendary car, you got there.
Congratulations on getting your car! Seeing you driving it and the immense joy on your face is awesome! You are the personification of every kid that like us, grew up in the 80's , had a poster of a Countach in his room and dreamed of one day owing one. And now you got to own one! Congratulations again!!!
Doug is the type of guy who doesn't give a Doug Score to his favorite car because in his heart it's 10's all around and to acknowledge anything less on paper would be insulting to his dream come true.
I think your right. I remember being a kid in the late 90's looking at these for 150k. Countach will be million dollar car in no time due to how iconic and crazy it is.
@@CarlRencerit might not be physically hard like construction but he’s clearly put in the effort (worked hard) to get to where he is today. Do you shit all over academics because they don’t work physically hard but mentally instead?! Grow up child.
Congratulations on your incredible purchase! 🎉 As a devout viewer, I’ve witnessed how your car collection grow and emerge over the years-from normal used cars to German fast wagons and now to highly coveted supercars that are hard to attain. It’s truly incredible and you have been one of my keystones on how I’m going to build my own dream garage. With that recent wave of purchases you have, I guess it’s a high time for us to see a garage update noting the present status of each vehicles in one of your future Sunday videos. Cheers! 🥂
The genuine joy and passion for cars, the sheer, child like enthusiasm, these are all the things that make a car guy a car guy. Doug, you are THE car guy in my book. Congrats to you. Enjoy the ride!
Man we all love seeing the genuine joy you have driving these types of cars Doug. We’re all happy for you, you’ve definitely earned it and you’re an inspiration for all us to achieve our dreams
Man, now both you AND Hoovie have Countach's! Hope we get to see you two cruising your Countaches together one of these days! I'll be honest though, if I ever had one of these a Back-Up camera would be an absolute MUST
What an acquisition! I've been a subscriber for years and I must say you are the perfect definition of what a car enthusiast really is. Bravo, Doug! 👏🏽
Doug! I may not have been watching since the beginning but I’ve been following you long enough to know how hard you worked for all of this and I just love seeing that all of your hard work and determination and passion is paying off! I love seeing you living your best life! Keep buying all those dream cars! So happy for you!
I’ve been a subscriber since the Ferrari….. I’ve never seen you so happy or enthusiastic. It thrills me you arrived. You earned it the old fashioned way… putting in the work. Congrats.
Doug what a special moment your sharing with us. This car is currently on my sons wall and I'm 50. We love the cool factor of this car!! Thank you for all you do.

Only 500.000 for a countach?! that is super affordable! I am missing only 502.000 to get one ! That's awesome!
Excellent choice; love the white because it shows off the black corking on the arch extensions and the (painted) black air intakes so well. Congrats for going for carbs, round-belly and not a low-body Countach too, all the correct choices. I bought my QV back in 2010 and even though I'm lucky enough to have driven almost everything, having a Countach stare back at you whenever you open the garage door remains very special.
My top tip would be to fit a new set of Pirelli P7 tyres, if the previous owner hasn't done so. They make a big difference. Next, check the geometry and the condition of all the rose-joints in the suspension. Once you've done that, simply keep filling it with super-unleaded (never check the mpg) and drive the wheels off it. That's the best way to enjoy the craziness of this legendary supercar, that's always hard work but also so damn rewarding to drive.

We made the right guy famous. I wish you great memories with that car Doug! 🎉
I'm gonna shamelessly ride your comment coattail, he was rocking around in that chair so hard i was worried it would tip over and mess up the car's bodywork
The joy on Doug's face, while driving this, is worth the whole price. Well done!
Like a kid on Christmas morning... :)
Dough i couldn’t be happier for you, most of these cars are bought by people with money who just wanna look fly but to see a car enthusiast enjoying them, and truly appreciating them feels good. We’re all living the dream through you
Seeing Doug attain all the cars he dreamed of is so rewarding as someone who’s watched him for so long genuinely achieving a car guys dream Congrats Doug you absolutely deserve it!! ❤
This dude’s joy is contagious. Congratulations Doug!
Doug's excitement while driving was just so infectious. Put a giant grin on my face.
The genuine smile and overwhelming joy when he’s driving. Made me smile too. Enjoy buddy.
23:58 "This is soo cool! I can't see anything... it's lovely!!!" Like a child in a candyshop. This is how real and honest enthusiasm and happiness looks like. Good choice Doug!
"When speed is available in a KIA Crossover, it doesn't matter anymore" LMAO😂. You couldn't be anymore spot on, Doug! Love the car and the video. You're absolutely right. It isn't about speed, it's about the whole supercar experience. Great 80's car!
That's what the mY tEsLa Is FaStEr!!!! bros don't understand. It's not about 0-60, it's about the whole experience. A Countach is an assault on the senses and requires constant engagement. It's an unreliable piece of crap slapped together by chain-smoking wine-drinking Italians and that's what makes it so great.
He is so correct. I was driving a C8 Corvette a couple weekends ago on some mountain roads and I came up on a VW Bus going slow. We were on a nice straightway, so I decided to pass this VW. I punch it and the C8 gave me all she got as I'm passing this bus, when I look up in the rearview mirror, and what do I see? A KIA. A KIA EV6 hanging step for step with a Corvette as we are passing this bus. So, yeah, he is 100% spot on. lol
The joy you show during the driving is contageous, I couldn't stop smiling with you! Congrats on the purchase Doug!
I SOOOOOOOOOO needed to see an exterior shot of Doug zipping by in this thing. ONLY thing that was missing from this vid. Douglas.. take it out again after you got it dialed in.. take a buddy with. Give us some exterior takes in this thing. Not seeing it in action and hearing it fly by is leaving me feeling robbed. But it's the easiest fix of all. 🤞👍🤘🙌🤝
I saw a Countach on the road in 1980 and I swore I would buy one someday, I could afford one years later but a growth spurt in HS to 6'8" killed that dream. Congrats Doug
Noooo 😭 you have my sympathy bro
So ur tall AND rich! Well boohoo 😀🤷🏼
dr disrespect?
Do what Shaq does and make his super cars, remove the top.
@@andyb9664When you are that tall, I heard they just give you millions.
So wholesome to see him like a kid on Christmas morning. Even after driving most supercars out there, he still loves this moment.
Chisato Nishikigi also loving this Countach.
relax, it's just an act for clicks
Way to go Doug!!! So happy for you bro. You're living the dream
@DougDomero yeaa bro that's awesome dude can't I get a like 🙂🙂
All of us who grow up in the 80's has dreamed of owning one of these.
As a Millennial-car guy I understand exactly what Doug meant by buying a car that has "an experience that cannot be matched". 3 years ago I bought a stock Mazda RX-7 with very low miles at a very, VERY reasonable price; at first I was very skeptical to buy a car with an engine that not everyone was familiar with, not to mention the horrible stories you heard online about reliability. At the end I just couldn't say no to that gorgeous look and pulled the trigger. I've done so many mistakes in life just like everyone else but I'm happy to report that my RX-7 is NOT one of them. Just stick to a very strict maintenance schedule and makes every other impracticality disappear. I know this comment may sound pretty cheesy but I felt that this video spoke to me in so many levels. Thank You Doug!
Doug is the kind of guy who always inspires everyone
I burst out laughing when the cut to Doug driving happened and showed his head against the headliner! 😂 Big congratulations on all your success Doug, you seem happier than ever and you deserve it all! Cheers from Pittsburgh
"I love this car so much I don't even care that I don't fit in it!"
Just warms my heart. So happy for you Doug. No one can explain how it feels to be a true car enthusiast better than you.
He literally said he bought it as an investment lol
Yep the original supercar that started it all and thanks doug for buying the right one. You know the ridiculous anniversary model with all the crappy ground effects and stuff. Yours is perfect.
I literally had the biggest smile on my face when I was watching Doug drive this car. That is pure joy right there.
Chisato Nishikigi and Takina Inoue both owned a Countach.
zzz
Bro. Seeing daddy doug so damn happy driving that countach made smile uncontrollably. His happiness is so contageous. Congrats, brother ❤
"I can't see anything... it's lovely!" is a statement, I absolutely didn't expect from doug, but oh so understand and feel. I'm really happy for you, and seeing how much joy you get out of it is fantastic!
This "driving experience" is what pure joy looks like. Congratulations!!
Doug: the type of guy whose joy is pure and relatable. Just like when you bought your Carrera GT I’m here living vicariously through you and I always love how normal and relatable you seem. Awesome content and congrats on the new Lamborghini!
This Countach kinda reminded me to NFS PS1.
Does he still have the GT?
I've never seen doug this happy and exited, congrats you deserve it really happy for you 🙂
Congrats the smile and “so cool” line is so honest you can tell this car gives you that amazing feeling
I’ve been watching your channel since 2015 and to see how happy you were making this video is the most joy I’ve seen in your videos. Congratulations man!
Money corrupts and Doug has proven that.
I'm so happy to see Doug reap the rewards of all of his hard work. His smile says it all 😁
Doug is the kind of person who smiled like a kid when looking at a Countach's poster and when driving the real deal. Congrats! You deserve it man🎉
@@samtsui841 Unless Doug has 1 hundred million dollars in the bank, he is in no position to buy a half million dollar, plus car. It is not becoming at all.
I have to say, my son and I watch all your videos and love them. To me, this is the best video by far! What a car! Congrats and please drive it a lot!!!
So proud of Doug recently, he’s done so many big things and is living his life to the fullest potential. As someone who’s been watching since the Ferrari 360/AM Vantage era it’s awesome to see
I LOVE this video. The sheer JOY you display says it all. My wife wondered why I bought A 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo that needs work. But then she saw me giggling during a drive just like you do in this video. THIS. IS. WHY. WE. LOVE. CARS. The analog experience, the "poster car" from your childhood, I totally get it. Congrats! And I totally agree, the Countach IS the ultimate supercar, especially your exact model. I'd also accept a red one. Ahem.
I love seeing where you’re at after watching you for five years. Congratulations, Doug!
Yeah when he especially bought the carrera I was like damn doug doing his thing or came up big
There is no more legendary car than the Countach. You did well.
I was smiling just as big as you were Doug. It’s getting tiring seeing so many people buying so many cars on you tube. But when you do, we can see your genuine happiness. The way you explain your rational for purchase, the smile on your face, your admittance of being crazy, it all just fits. Congrats to you. I just found my Countach poster I had hanging in my room when I was a kid.
zzz
26:15
Doug's the type of guy to represent what it means to be a true car enthusiast; from ripping in his Countach to pouring over the features of a Toyota Previa! Congratulations Doug!
25:58 “it’s not incredibly fast by modern standards, but I’ve got cars for that” 🔥🔥🔥 that line was a banger. Let ‘em know, Doug!
The Countach is smaller than I thought it would be, which is actually kind of nice. Awesome video and review as always.
Also when Doug is laughing saying "I can not see anything... it's lovely" 😁
Twin turbo it and this bad boy is going to fly and gap huracans and other modern supercars
The "test" drive was awesome. It sounded amazing, but i found myself crossing my fingers that it didnt just explode for no reason cruising at 75. I too had this one on my bedroom wall. Never made it to the point of being able to afford one. Way to go Doug. I watch almost all of your vids. Dont ever change.
I'm old enough to remember having a poster of THIS CAR on my wall as a kid. I drew it on every note book I had in the 4th grade. Iconic doesn't even begin to describe it. I'd have one if I could afford it. Congrats Doug!
True joy.
This is probably my favourite video by Doug.
Such unabashed joy, genuine, enthusiastic consumption and love for the motor vehicle.
Tremendous.
Great content
its amazing to see Doug come from a supercar reviewer to a supercar collector. keep it up man loving the videos
Not to mention where it all started, supercar chaser
zzz
@@dj_laundry_list yes ofc back when all he did was car spotting. He came a very long way
Pretty sweet how in that 1 shot the red and Yellow one side by side look like side swipe and sun streaker the 2 autobot brothers from Transformers
Love how informative the video is, not even just about the car itself, but it gives you insight into a whole other part of the car community and different perspectives on ownership and what's enjoyable. That said, cheers Doug, you absolutely deserve this!
He didn’t say if that one is the high roof model, because they did increase the roof height for headroom.
"It's so cool, I can't see anything!" -It's a total hoot just to see you so happy! I'm so glad you bought it and showed it to us, what a great experience just to watch. This is what makes you the best at what you do.
I could have *never* seen this coming a decade ago when I was watching your old CTS-V videos. Congrats, Doug! It's been so fun watching your channel grow and seeing you grow as well as a person over the last 10 years. It's so awesome to see you get to genuinely enjoy the fruits of your labor.
He should be giving to charity. Dough has lost touch with reality and is materialistic.
bro wishes he had a countach@@trenbriggs6933
Bob Wallace, was a New Zealander test driver, automotive engineer and mechanic who played a big role in developing early Lamborghini road cars, so yes the cars were definitely tested. Of course not to forget Valentino Balboni was chief test driver at Lamborghini.
It's really heartwarming to see someone enjoying what he does so much as you do. Very happy for you! That's a beautiful and legendary car, you got there.
As legend as Lamborghini Murcielago.
I've never EVER seen and heard Doug so happy in a car, well deserved
Doug was in tears in his Carrera GT
You probably didn't see the CGT reveal
You are clearly ignoring the Carrera GT video!
RIght! , "This is so cool I can't see anything!" That's called joy and abandonment!
Congratulations on getting your car! Seeing you driving it and the immense joy on your face is awesome! You are the personification of every kid that like us, grew up in the 80's , had a poster of a Countach in his room and dreamed of one day owing one. And now you got to own one! Congratulations again!!!
He is 35 so... no, he didn't grew up in the 80s... 90s is more likely...
Doug is the type of guy who doesn't give a Doug Score to his favorite car because in his heart it's 10's all around and to acknowledge anything less on paper would be insulting to his dream come true.
Best episode ever!
I couldn't stop smiling for you. The joy is contagious. Congratulations Doug!
ok, your pure joy in this video was so contagious. Congrats man, theres literally nobody more deserving after seeing how much it means to you
Doug is cashing out!! (American slang for buying up the block)
Big Time lol
Doug will never drive it. It’ll have 100 extra miles on the odometer and he will sell it. It’s an investment
@@kmcdonnell83It’s called a Hoovie
I say buy a car you love so much you would never sell. Just drive.
Different stroke for….
No cap😮
I think your right. I remember being a kid in the late 90's looking at these for 150k. Countach will be million dollar car in no time due to how iconic and crazy it is.
It's nice to see nice people, work hard and achieve the success they've dreamed of. Congrats Doug.
Tell us what hard work he does?
Hard work like a medic?
Construction?
Doug makes videos.
It's not hard work.
I think he was tuned up on adderal for this.
@@CarlRencerit might not be physically hard like construction but he’s clearly put in the effort (worked hard) to get to where he is today.
Do you shit all over academics because they don’t work physically hard but mentally instead?!
Grow up child.
That is why we Love America!
homie is jealous@@CarlRencer
I'm happy for you Doug. Hard work pays off 👍🏻
He's not gonna let you drive it bud smh
@@coreychildress156Dude sent him more money than is in my whole bank account. 😂
@@fortheloveofnoiseyou need some? XD
@@coreychildress156😢
Congratulations on your incredible purchase! 🎉 As a devout viewer, I’ve witnessed how your car collection grow and emerge over the years-from normal used cars to German fast wagons and now to highly coveted supercars that are hard to attain. It’s truly incredible and you have been one of my keystones on how I’m going to build my own dream garage.
With that recent wave of purchases you have, I guess it’s a high time for us to see a garage update noting the present status of each vehicles in one of your future Sunday videos. Cheers! 🥂
doug is the type of guy to make a "doug is the type of guy" joke in his video.
The genuine joy and passion for cars, the sheer, child like enthusiasm, these are all the things that make a car guy a car guy. Doug, you are THE car guy in my book. Congrats to you. Enjoy the ride!
Doug materialism is off the charts and so is his ego.
homie is jealous@@honeststers4688
Man we all love seeing the genuine joy you have driving these types of cars Doug. We’re all happy for you, you’ve definitely earned it and you’re an inspiration for all us to achieve our dreams
Man, now both you AND Hoovie have Countach's! Hope we get to see you two cruising your Countaches together one of these days! I'll be honest though, if I ever had one of these a Back-Up camera would be an absolute MUST
And Matt Farah.
Them and Matt Farah would make an interesting “Three Countachkateers.”
One of the BEST looking cars ever made.
Those are priceless and to die for.
What an acquisition!
I've been a subscriber for years and I must say you are the perfect definition of what a car enthusiast really is.
Bravo, Doug! 👏🏽
The level of pure joy in Doug’s voice and on his face while driving is something I want to now aspire to in life!
🤮🤮🤮
Mate, your smile and happiness is worth the price. What an episode.
You made me worth a million dollars watching.
ok
it went from "i m seen as someone reasonable and geeky" to "i want a car that makes ppl turns head" very fast
Doug! I may not have been watching since the beginning but I’ve been following you long enough to know how hard you worked for all of this and I just love seeing that all of your hard work and determination and passion is paying off! I love seeing you living your best life! Keep buying all those dream cars! So happy for you!
I’ve been a subscriber since the Ferrari….. I’ve never seen you so happy or enthusiastic. It thrills me you arrived. You earned it the old fashioned way… putting in the work. Congrats.
Doug what a special moment your sharing with us. This car is currently on my sons wall and I'm 50. We love the cool factor of this car!! Thank you for all you do.
Only 500.000 for a countach?! that is super affordable! I am missing only 502.000 to get one ! That's awesome!
RIP to the previous owner, but seeing how happy you are, I think he's out there smiling, enjoy Doug!
