hmm yup, that's a Countach, first designed over 30 years ago. It's probably one of the most uncomofortable sports cars on the road. One of the guys on the BBC's Top Gear TV show described the Countach as being like driving a washing machine, only with worse visibilty. He said the Diablo was about 12523463241x easier and more comfortable to drive.
do an Internet search for Countach and you'll find millions of pics, or hit up http://www.supercars.net

Countaches from 1978 or before can be legally registered as a classic car (25 years or older).
But the older Countaches looked more "pansy" than those pics up top, i.e. skinner 14" tires, no flares, etc.

oooo nice site! The video I was referring to is here: http://www.racingflix.com/getvideo.asp?v=308&p=6
The Countach 25th Special Anniversary Edition kicks ***.
I went to junior high and high school with a kid whose dad owned a white Countach. He let him drive it to school; I saw it during 1st period English. His dad came and picked it up when school started, though.

Note to self: become a ***** doctor.
But I heard one a few months ago. It was red and driving in the opposite direction while I was stopped at a light. Holy ****! Sounded sweet.
Nothing like a V12 opening up!

1974 Countach LP400, running on 205/70-14 front tires and 215/70-14 tires in back:
In 1978 when they came out with the LP400S w/ the fender flares, they changed to 205/50-15 tires in front and 345/45-15 tires in back!
