blowndaytona Report post Posted April 23, 2014 i recently added a red Ferrari 328 GTS to my garage: the 328 is a very nice car. The 911 3.2 Carrera cabrio i have is a nice car too, but when i look at the black Countach i still think that is the best looking car ever in the world. And by far. I talked with my wife (she says the Countach is "too much" for me) and maybe she is changing her mind. I think the black scrap will stay at home at least until next year. Maybe more. ciao Your car is too nice to sell. You will be happy you kept it. I am in the same postion, a Ferrari and Porsche in the garage also. They look cool and drive fantastic, but when you look at the Countach, it is over the top!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcabron Report post Posted April 24, 2014 I think selling any COuntach if you have a passion for the car will be filled with loads of regret. You just can't duplicate the feeling you get when you see the car first thing in the morning or going to bed at night. thinking about the car even gets me going. Great you kept the car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sure know how to turn a bad situation into a good one. Got to learn from you! I'm sorry, i do not understand what you mean, maybe my english is not so good. This is a picture of my new 328 GTS, purchased April 16, 2014, that is more or less one week ago. Picture was taken the same day at Bonini shop, an Official Ferrari Assistance point at Cadelbosco di Sotto, RE, Italy, and shows the Rosso Corsa 328 GTS aside my Mercedes. I still own the ELA12708 Countach 5000S. ciao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Balls Report post Posted April 25, 2014 Congrats on the Fcar! a well sorted 328 is a lot of "bang for the buck" ! car looks great! now go open a nice chianti sit in the garage looking at your Porsche, Ferrari and Lamborghini and savor the moment my friend!

Thanks, it's a 18 k miles car since new. Those cars are no more so cheap as some years ago, but it's still a lot of "bang for the bucks" as you say, as the car costed me the half of what i spent to restore the Countach ciao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is funny that someone is planning a big sale and make people sad to may be lose a good community member then comes around with announcing a big purchase! and I get you about the 328.. I sometimes have impure thoughts about it too ! PS: I will be in Europe mid May. Not sure if i'll have time to go to Milan but if I do, I'd love to stop by and meet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's strange, but the Countach is not much appreciated at my home at it's a battle to keep it. My wife just likes Porsche 911, does not want to get into the black Countach anymore and she asked me we i purchased that red scrap too: "Don't you have enough of that black scrap?", she said. "Buy a car that always works and easy to drive like the 911, what is that wreckage?". A fight, now i have to keep the Countach parked in a shop away from home... I have to say that Countach is not an "easy" car, everything it's difficult and expensive in that car, starting from driving it out of the garage and ending to maintenance: the 328 and the 911 3.2 are by far more enjoiable and easier cars, even if they disappear if you park aside them a Countach. ciao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driving a countach is always a aventure... I got my Countach over 20 years, it's my longest realationship...and my best... I like the feeling to drive it. The noise, the figth with every gear....

I do not like too much how the 911 looks, but i think that an aircooled 911 is (by far) the best sport car ever made. But nothing compares to a Countach, of course. ciao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my ex wife that dosen't works.... I don't like the 911.....its a f...g bug.... A good friend of me , have a 930 Turbo...the perfomance is very good... The gearbox is very strange...the way of the gears are very, very long....the break-clutchpedal horrorble....the breaks are also good and in the corners is a Countach much faster...
