    Well, you explained it well yourself.
    Considering what parts were available 9 years ago the F40 is a clear winner here.
    I have both of these vehicles. Heck I have all of the creator expert/icons and ideas vehicles.Ferrari is by far my favorite model.

    I received that Lego F40 as an Xmas gift years ago & it, happily, became the start of an ever growing Lego collection.
    It was also when I learned to never throw away the box. Replacing them is expensive.

    The F40 is a set I've wanted for so so long... if someone says Ferrari, the car I think of is the F40, it's just how a Ferrari looks to me, classic and good looking. But honestly I thought it was older. I guess I have this false memory of seeing it on the shelf when I was like 12 or something, and I'm currently 26. Weird.

    the F40 set is still a nice set but i always thought the car was kinda small length wise. NKUBATE's mod instructions from rebrickable extends the length of the car by 2 studs and looks way better and the build is still sturdy, only thing is you need extra pieces to do it and are left with left over pieces from the original build

    I dont think you can judge a retired set on price oer part. Seeing as a sealed F40 can go for $300 or more on the secondary market these days.

    The Lambo is a nice set- but something about it is just a bit off for me- and the F40 is one of my FAVORITE sets EVER. So it's F40 all the way for me :)

      Hmm. It could be different requirements for different countries or just regulations changed at some point. I’m not sure really.

    Honestly the Countach is trash and way overpriced. There are better cars from other manufacturers for way cheaper
