@@garand70 Yes, because you read on the internet that absolutely everyone is using the same phrase over and over tirelessly so you figured "why should I be any different?"
The first time I saw one of these was 1976. It was in Manchester, England and I was wondering what the reason was for a small crowd . So I went to look. I honestly thought a space ship had landed. It was so diffferent than anything I had ever seen. I can't convey how astounded I was. There was nothing like it.
My first view of it was in the Hollywood movie Cannon Ball Run. I've been in love ever since! However this is the second video with a thorough analysis of the machine and my hearts sinks deeper each time. :-(
@@chivalryalive I remember that movie from when I was a kid! I hoped the girls in the Lamborghini would win. Not because they were hot, but because of the car, and despite the fact that the Jackie Chan character drove one of the other cars! Class mates had pin ups on their bedroom walls; I had pictures of the Countach on my bedroom walls.
Actually I used to like the look of Ferraris better. But now I am starting to appreciate the industrial look of Lambo (excluding the Miura which was beautiful by conventional standards) and he says the driving experience is great.
It's weeping softly in the garage: "Free! Free at last!" And that's why it drives so well - it'll give him every last bit of grip and horsepower it can for the ability to finally do what it was meant to do.
Right... But instead I got a 1986 toyota mr2..... 128hp.. Auto. 178,087miles cold ac ...i gotta scoot the seat up a bit . 4 notches .. I'm the Second owner..
You are right.The Italians are great at body design.The Germans are great designing the mechanics and the turbos .The Japanese are great at putting it all together.
@@MrMelgibstein The germans suck for reliability. American reliability surpassed them in the mid 2000's according to independent JD Power. Probably want the japanese to design the mechanicals. Unless you like built in planned obsolescence.

My guess on some used Countaches is $50-$80K, like Rolls Royce, seemed affordable compared to new premium prices for a Corvette or Dodge Viper going back a bit
Back in the 80’s in Palm Beach, a buddy had this car. He hated everything about it except that, when he popped the door at the beach, a girl in a bikini would always get in.
Stop whinging an get in it an drive it! See a guy called Harry on U tube who owns one an a Diablo an he’s twice your age...... he drove it Antibe then to Switzerland for a Lamborghini rally an won the longest distance driven ... round trip 2000+ miles.... look an learn numpty😝 😂👍🏼
Along with the Miura, probably one of the most beautiful cars ever built, just pure art on wheels, and Italdesign pininfarina bertone ghia giugiaro etc are magic
By the time they're fit to college, this Countach alone would pay for that I guess... if Hoovie keeps it. And by that time, he'll probably be old enough for not wanting to squeeze himself into it anymore.
The Larz Anderson Museum has an Italian Trattoria car show each summer. A few years ago, a Dealer brought a Countach. It won Favorite Car of the show!!
So this isn't the original Countach, but... can you imagine seeing a Countach for the first time when it came out? I mean, I was born in '85, it was my favorite car as a kid (along with the forgotten Aston Martin Bulldog), and I still can't believe the car's from the 1970's.
Imagine being his neighbour, waking up, and seeing "that weird hooptie car guy" doing donuts with an open door countach in the snow around the neighborhood
I'm 6'5" 320lbs and I drove a countach for about a week. I removed the driver seat and just sat on the tub. It wasn't too bad when I did that and about the same comfort. As for the climate control not working, that's how it works.
The Lamborghini Countach was a classic example of style and looks over substance. A pin-up car adolescent boys could have wet dreams over, who later then grew up acquiring one to find it to be utterly awful in almost every conceivable way. But that doesn't stop people wanting one: it brings out your inner child, and that is what a true supercar is supposed to do. Supercars aren't supposed to be sensible, or practical, or easy to look out of, or easy to drive, or safe, or anything grown up at all. They are supposed to look cool, sound amazing, go like the clappers, and make everyone else smile or simply go "corrrr!" Lamborghini were and are the masters of drumming up such emotions 😉
So true 😂. College is a bit old fashioned and overrated today. Why drown yourself in debt while in many cases there are great online courses given by university professors. Watch it, learn it & start doing it with entrepreneur mentality.
@@rustyshackleford2934 No... hes definitely not filthy rich especially when hes buying and then selling the cars for less then he paid, or giving them away. After all, it was the cheapest countach out there. So, get your head out of your ass
While I am definitely NOT a fan of the Countachs ridiculous looks, I actually had a chance to drive one on a curvy mountain road several years ago with it's owner sitting next to me with a worried look in his face. It was the chance of a lifetime, and I will likely never be able to do it again, but I will never forget it. The Countach is the most unrefined, visceral car I have ever driven. Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, was mechanical. The sound and feel were incredible. All the controls had a very mechanical feel to them. You felt physically connected to the car (which you actually were) No computers, no electronics. You and you alone were in control. No electronic "driver aids" No it is not what some people would call perfect. It has a lot of "quirks" To me that is called "character" There is some "clunkiness" to it, but it also has a very precise feeling. The steering was very tight, no slop in it, it took very little movement of the wheel to change direction. You do have to have some skill to drive this car properly (I have been a drag racer and autocrosser all my life) but if you do, well, lets just say this was the most "engaging" car I've ever driven. It's kind of sad that I will never own one. On the opposite end, the best comparison "sports" car I can compare it to would be the C6 Corvette coupe (2012 model) I actually like the styling of it, but not driving it. You don't feel any actual connection to it at all. Everything sounds and feels numb and muted. The suspension is mushy, it probably has a few hundred pounds of sound deadening in it, it has paddle shifters and no clutch, there are computers between you and every single control, so it is not actually you driving the car, it's the computers. You give control inputs to the computers, and then they decide how the car responds. Definitely NOT a car I would ever want to own. Here is a great (and very accurate) video on the Countach ua-cam.com/video/uJ6if4xuob0/v-deo.html
Jay Leno is used to driving everything from a McLaren F1 to a steam powered lawnmower, his skills at adapting his driving style to whatever he's driving must be immense and at this point unconscious, so I'm not surprised he likes the Countach. I used to own a 90s Honda dirt bike that had picked up some eccentricities and was practically unrideable to everyone except me, because I knew where the sweet spots were. If you drove that Countach for 2 decades you might feel the same.
OMG, the Chinese are invading! -It's just Hoovie. OMG, the aliens are invading! -It's just Hoovie. OMG, tornado is approaching! -It's just Hoovie. ...is... is it Hoovie? -Yep.

@@bvic01 Plus a nice investment because without something really bad breaking on them or wrecking them if he got as good of a deal as he keeps alluding to I seriously doubt he will lose any money on them.
Wow, I feel like I just saw behind the curtain of the Wizard of Oz. Many practical valid points of why this car is a miserable failure, but aside from cheap looking dash, impractical side windows that wouldn't allow any sort of drive through activity, insanely useless rear windows, and how it is built only for an Asian sized person, how is it possible that such an over the top expensive icon of supercars could have so many mechanical issues with only 10k miles? The car has no ventilation, AC, or working heater system. It leaks coolant. The right headlight won't open. Crazy.... On top of it all, my claustrophobia was kicking in big time as I watched him wrestle his legs into a twister game orientation as his head was twisted so he could barely sit inside the car. OMG. After seeing this video, I can see why the 20+ year old car only has 10k miles on it. I would lose my sanity if I had to ride like that for over 5 minutes . The only practical use this car has is to look sexy in your driveway until you sold it to the next unsuspecting enthusiasts.
Funny trivia: the Car has a small Passenger mirror that Looks Like it's Made for snorting Coke of it. And to be honest. You can and should only own this Car in cocain White.
Wizard: “Hey Tyler, I found a pristine Countach for you to buy.” Tyler: “Oh no, that won’t do. First thing I’ll need to do is hooptify it by doing some donuts in the snow.”
Even though the Countach may seem to be a car with ineffective functions and impractical designs, you have to admit that it is a cool and significant looking car from the 80s
Yep! My very first "dream car" too. I loved 'em.... I guess I still kind of do. But this is the second very comprehensive video which analyzes all the drawbacks of the machine... and it really seems to fail in so many ways. :-( My heart sinks....

Question: when the car is this old, do you have the advantage of being able to manufacture some of the parts or replace them with something else rather than pay pumped up prices to manufacturer like with newest cars ? e.g when you need a panel, a fender, a carburateur, tail lights, etc. Or is it everything just very expensive to replace ?
I don't think he has to worry about it Daddy will pay for grandkids college. Did you not see the old man's collection of cars worth millions. I'm sure everybody will be taken care of when the old man goes
As someone who may never be able to afford a Lamborghini Countach, I cannot express enough thanks for the honest review. It’s a beautiful dream car for sure… Thank you for the video!
they like italian girls. You should ride them a few times but not keep them because they are unrealiable as hell and going to cost a fortune to maintain.
Haha, I love how the whole thing starts with a gas strut that can't handle the weight of the door (in the cold). Perfect. Still that car is every boy's dream.
I would totally park that thing on my lawn and take the wheels off an set it on bricks 🧱 then put a $20,000.00 Toto toilet 🚽 on my porch. It would be a step up from the neighbors broken mustang on their lawn and the cheap Home Depot toilet they have lol 😂 I’m high class trash
My dad always wanted me to own this very car in this very color. He bought me a big framed poster and I had it in my room for almost all my childhood. When I grew up he took it and put it in my room in Mexico. And it's still there. Beautiful car.
If I would be your neighbor, and you would wake up my sleeping kids with the loud sound of this car, I would... dress my kids up and go out to show them this piece of auto history...:)

I have actually seen a white countach making donuts in a video a few years ago, but i dont remember in what context the video was or where to find it....
I feels your pain. Countach was one of 2 dream vehicles who's pictures I carried around in my wallet for years The first a Countach SS from Cannonball Run circa 1981, and a Fatboy from Streets of Fire circa 1984. Got the Fatboy but as soon as I rode in a Countach, I tossed the pic and settled for a 69 Galaxy 500 fastback. Somethings should stay a dream.
lol.... I've been trying to figure out who it seems like he's imitating. You nailed it. I can't listen to it for more than a couple minutes before having the urge to scratch my ears off.
I bought mine 11 years ago, to tick it off the list. Still have it as it drive really well and isn’t at all as bad as the pundits say. Handling is tight (rose joints) so even with the big engine she’s still playful.
Not me. I rather get an Aston, Buggati, Jaguar, Porsche, Lotus, BMW, De Tomaso, Corvette Callaway or Mercedes of that era... Even the , Vector W8 is nicer than this!
I’m still on the fence about the Anniversary clown suit this version wore. I just always adored the relatively base design of its predecessor so much. But clowns do bring a smile to my face too, and so does this slotted and slatted Lambo.

That sure was a close one!!!😬 That car is in desperate need of a backup camera!!!😄
Why would you yell mailbox tho
"I guess my kids weren't college material anyway" lol
LMFAO Ikr
White car, white snow, donuts in his cul-de-sac. Best opening to one of his “dumbest” videos ever.
Jay Leno is used to driving everything from a McLaren F1 to a steam powered lawnmower, his skills at adapting his driving style to whatever he's driving must be immense and at this point unconscious, so I'm not surprised he likes the Countach. I used to own a 90s Honda dirt bike that had picked up some eccentricities and was practically unrideable to everyone except me, because I knew where the sweet spots were. If you drove that Countach for 2 decades you might feel the same.
Hoovie's Neighbors:
"What's all that noise outside??"
"Oh don't worry, that's just Hoovie doing donuts in his Lambo with the door open"
OMG, the Chinese are invading!
-It's just Hoovie.
OMG, the aliens are invading!
-It's just Hoovie.
OMG, tornado is approaching!
-It's just Hoovie.
...is... is it Hoovie?
-Yep.
Imagine buying a million dollar home in the suburbs like "ah, finally, no more of the hulabaloo of the city, just sophisticated, quiet folk like me" and then you Hoovie doing this a day later
"the orange one?"
"Nope"
"the silver one?"
"Nope"
"Ah, the cocain white one"
"Dam right"
Tyler is almost to the point of having a different Lambo for everyday of the week.
Didn’t even cover half of the week
@@xiukn8 I mean a work week. Too bad he sold the blue one.
Tax write offs. Lol
@@bvic01 Plus a nice investment because without something really bad breaking on them or wrecking them if he got as good of a deal as he keeps alluding to I seriously doubt he will lose any money on them.
He might just borrow it and „sell” it after few videos
I legit gasped for breath when the spoiler nearly hit the mailbox...
#MeToo
I wanted to fight him for treating this jewel like that!
What?Countach is terrible car?
" Countach will drifting though life"
Wow, I feel like I just saw behind the curtain of the Wizard of Oz. Many practical valid points of why this car is a miserable failure, but aside from cheap looking dash, impractical side windows that wouldn't allow any sort of drive through activity, insanely useless rear windows, and how it is built only for an Asian sized person, how is it possible that such an over the top expensive icon of supercars could have so many mechanical issues with only 10k miles? The car has no ventilation, AC, or working heater system. It leaks coolant. The right headlight won't open. Crazy....
On top of it all, my claustrophobia was kicking in big time as I watched him wrestle his legs into a twister game orientation as his head was twisted so he could barely sit inside the car. OMG.
After seeing this video, I can see why the 20+ year old car only has 10k miles on it. I would lose my sanity if I had to ride like that for over 5 minutes . The only practical use this car has is to look sexy in your driveway until you sold it to the next unsuspecting enthusiasts.
A white Countach doing donuts in the snow: "SO MUCH COCAINE!!"
dr rockso just went to heaven
"This is pure snow! It's everywhere! Have you any idea what the street value of this mountain is?"
Funny trivia: the Car has a small Passenger mirror that Looks Like it's Made for snorting Coke of it.
And to be honest. You can and should only own this Car in cocain White.
@@edenjung9816 FACTS
Yeah definitely not snow ❄️
Wizard: “Hey Tyler, I found a pristine Countach for you to buy.”
Tyler: “Oh no, that won’t do. First thing I’ll need to do is hooptify it by doing some donuts in the snow.”
Tall people - "God, being short must suck"
Countach Owners - "God, being tall must suck".
loll
Hopefully Koenigsegg build cars big enough for us northerners, let tiny Italians drive Lambos.
@@Studeb I don't think size is as much of a factor as people's inability to afford either in the first place.
@@EOtekk To be fair to the tiny Italians, I could buy a Lambo or two right now, but I will never be able to own a Koenigsegg.
Its italian car from 1973 it was made for average Italian or better for small peoples
Italians back in 1970 were 5′3 small
Even though the Countach may seem to be a car with ineffective functions and impractical designs, you have to admit that it is a cool and significant looking car from the 80s
Neighbors like “is he doing donuts in a lambo!?”
Sometimes, he's the biggest clown in McMansionville - and that's why we all love him.
LOL I was thinking the exact same thing
No they probably thinking what an asshole... No one likes that guy doing doughnuts on suburban streets
He is snowblowing
@@MrMCDiggles Well, I said that we - and by that I mean us, the viewers - love him. I'm sure I'd detest having him as my neighbor.
The intro is me every morning, except the Countach door would be my computer to get onto Zoom🤪😂
What? Also do you just keep making it pfp stradmans cars last time you had his veyron.
You should probably cut down on the ‘ludes.
You drift your computer in the snow? Fucking sick
@@GermanKerman yeah man toss a few rubbers on that bad boy and she’ll drive for miles
Wife: Who's that doing donuts in the snow? he's such a child. Husband: I want a go, I want a go, can I go play, please, let me, let me.
Totally me!!!!
Everyone else gets to play but me. (Shrugs shoulders, crosses arms)
That car still looks amazing - even today, and your content is fantastic - loved the video! 👍
As a kid I absolutely loved these cars. They were so exotic looking compared to anything out there at that time
Then you grew up?
Yep! My very first "dream car" too. I loved 'em.... I guess I still kind of do. But this is the second very comprehensive video which analyzes all the drawbacks of the machine... and it really seems to fail in so many ways. :-( My heart sinks....
I remember having a poster of that car when I was a kid I used to stare at it and think how amazing it looked
Well, I can’t say I’ve ever seen someone drift a Countach in the snow before.
Car Wizard is rubbing his hands together saying "excellent" lol
Chris Harris went one better many years ago in Harry Metcalfe's Countach....
seen a fair few drifting in finest Columbian snow tho
Next week on Hoovie's garage: "I BROKE MY COUNTACH"
And Another Trip To Wizards!!!! LOL
no,
I broke my countach S ...
The suspension will be at Wizard’s every few hundred miles for new Rose joints.

lmao check his latest video
Question: when the car is this old, do you have the advantage of being able to manufacture some of the parts or replace them with something else rather than pay pumped up prices to manufacturer like with newest cars ? e.g when you need a panel, a fender, a carburateur, tail lights, etc. Or is it everything just very expensive to replace ?
10:20 just like the other great items from the 80's, the VCR, the clock flashes 12;00
Next episode on wizards channel “getting hoovie off the quaaludes”
They're just leudes man! LoL
...and onto the Preludes?
Between this car and Wizard's boat, they could do a badass remake of the movie.

I feel like I'm listening to Jeff Goldblum talk about this car.
yeah its aggravating

Ya thats who it is. Knew he reminded me of someone
Oh jeez I was about to say the same thing. STOP IT already Hoovie! It's friggin ANNOYING!!!
I was thinking the same thing🤣🤣
Lmao, he said "my kids aren't college material anyways" damn thats funny!
I don't think he has to worry about it Daddy will pay for grandkids college. Did you not see the old man's collection of cars worth millions. I'm sure everybody will be taken care of when the old man goes
@@davejones1959 if a guy can afford 2 Lamborghinis on 1 day I'm sure he has useless $50,000 on his kids college
Most youtubers: “doing snow donuts in my 32 year old lambo”
Tyler: shows donuts in outro!
Wada guy, I’m so pleased for you!
Fantastic wolf of wall street impression!
I’m guessing Hoovie makes large contributions to the HOA.
he's not that dumb to own a HOA home
it's the midwest, HOA's don't complete dominate this area so he probably lives in a place without one.
i dont get it, is it difficult to find a non HOA home?
It's sarcasm people. It doesn't matter if he actually lives in a place with a hoa.
And specials haha. I know
As someone who may never be able to afford a Lamborghini Countach, I cannot express enough thanks for the honest review. It’s a beautiful dream car for sure… Thank you for the video!
The trunk situation gives the term „spoiler alert“ a new meaning...
The wolf of hooptys🤣🤣
Lol
The Countach has always been and still is simply jaw dropping!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Harry's Garage loves it
@Forest Cityy maybe a better "car" but the Countach is a ground breaking work of automotive art 🤩
@@SteveRogers461 As we've all heard the artist 'suffers' for his art, as does the owner..
@@cstlbrvo5615 lol lol lol 😂😂😂
they like italian girls. You should ride them a few times but not keep them because they are unrealiable as hell and going to cost
a fortune to maintain.
Haha, I love how the whole thing starts with a gas strut that can't handle the weight of the door (in the cold). Perfect. Still that car is every boy's dream.
that wolf of wall street intro was excellent i knew you were gonna do that
haha the starting still shot of Tyler Belfort crawling on the floor.. we just knew he had to =D
same 😂😂😂
How tall is Hoovie that he can’t fit? Unlike Demuro, Hoovie doesn’t announce his height in every video.
He's high on cocaine. Just look at his car.
Quirky isn't it?!🤷
J T He did multiple times. Can't remember how tall he said he was, but around 6ft 5.
Edit: according to the internet, he's 6ft 7...
@Apex Seal - Wow you’re right. Didn’t realize he was that tall. Ed Bolian looks even taller he must be 6’8+
@@apexseal2811 I think that's the American football player Tyler Hoover who is 6ft 7
"My winter beater Bentley is broken, so I'll take out the 'Tach!" -- Hoovie
That's the most ridiculously 1st world thing I've ever seen...
I would totally park that thing on my lawn and take the wheels off an set it on bricks 🧱 then put a $20,000.00 Toto toilet 🚽 on my porch. It would be a step up from the neighbors broken mustang on their lawn and the cheap Home Depot toilet they have lol 😂 I’m high class trash
My dad always wanted me to own this very car in this very color. He bought me a big framed poster and I had it in my room for almost all my childhood. When I grew up he took it and put it in my room in Mexico. And it's still there. Beautiful car.
If I would be your neighbor, and you would wake up my sleeping kids with the loud sound of this car, I would... dress my kids up and go out to show them this piece of auto history...:)
Just watched Wolf of Wallstreet this week - So this was an epic opening for me
Nothin better than seeing a Lambo in the snow

I think Matt Farah would do donuts in his tbh
I would but I don’t have one
I hope the snow wasn't salted yet 😂
I have actually seen a white countach making donuts in a video a few years ago, but i dont remember in what context the video was or where to find it....
I feels your pain. Countach was one of 2 dream vehicles who's pictures I carried around in my wallet for years The first a Countach SS from Cannonball Run circa 1981, and a Fatboy from Streets of Fire circa 1984. Got the Fatboy but as soon as I rode in a Countach, I tossed the pic and settled for a 69 Galaxy 500 fastback. Somethings should stay a dream.
Galaxy's a good choice, def a lot easier to live with / maintain / drive / etc.

The goldblum thing - and the builder's grade MacMansions in a drab nowhere-land, made this sickening to watch - so I didn't.
Its funny how everybody knows its a bad car but we all still want one, its like good s*x in a bad relationship
It's not that it's bad or good, it's because it is beautiful, it is (at least for me) the most beautiful car in the world
i really felt that mate....
I bought mine 11 years ago, to tick it off the list. Still have it as it drive really well and isn’t at all as bad as the pundits say. Handling is tight (rose joints) so even with the big engine she’s still playful.
@@tristec good or bad, I still want one 😂
Not me. I rather get an Aston, Buggati, Jaguar, Porsche, Lotus, BMW, De Tomaso, Corvette Callaway or Mercedes of that era... Even the , Vector W8 is nicer than this!

I’m still on the fence about the Anniversary clown suit this version wore. I just always adored the relatively base design of its predecessor so much. But clowns do bring a smile to my face too, and so does this slotted and slatted Lambo.
An 80's Countach in it's natural element a pile of cocaine !! errr snow
