    I remember when I first saw a countach, a white 25th anniversary edition and I was in love

    • @AnthroGearhead

      AJHedges i prefer the first gen Countach , its light and well balanced

    • @snaaail

      I agree I prefer the LP400 the most but seeing any countach is amazing

      AJHedges handling not so good , you need to wrestle with the car , and worst the doors dont seem to help parking into a space

      If you're talking 80s supercars, it's a battle for second place.

      Yuri Macansantos supercars back then all pretty much look the same
      The reason why those 2 never marked its top speed cuz the Vector has poor handling at high speeds and the Venturi is quick to over heat ( from wat i heard few yrs back )

    Stuff like the grand national or the typhoon, cyclone or spirit rt had crazy performance back then. The dodge spirit rt has to be one of the best sleeper cars ever made. I know that’s getting into the 90s. I have a great story about a typhoon, i had a 98 cobra with plenty of bolt ons (exhaust, headers, intake) lowering springs and much beefier tires and a different gear in the rear. I thought it was decently fast back then it was only 2-3 years old. Well one day stopped at a red light a typhoon pulls up and starts revving it at me so its on. I hear him brake boosting the turbo and soon as it went green he smoked all 4 tires and was gone. Hell by the time i got traction he had me by 5 cars or more. And I had a srt-4 neon with a mopar stage 3 kit man that car was fast and didn’t get enough respect. It was hard to launch but if you raced on a roll it would beat many cars. It made many older mustang drivers mad which there’s many around here.

    Although the Buick GNX isn’t a supercar, it’s still a good car from the 80s.

    I wouldn’t consider the 86 to be a supercar, but it can damn well handle good!

    No Testarossa? That and the Countach defined 80s super cars.

    Episode on the BMW M1 would be interesting, for a car with such reputation, yet no knowledge of it.
