Lamborghini Countach Turbo S
One of a kind production turbo

The Lamborghini Countach Turbo S was only built two times in the Lamborghini factory, one of them was a prototype. Apparently the prototype is either lost or doesn't exist anymore, which makes this car one of a kind. Most people will agree that even until today this car is the most radical Lamborghini ever built.

The 4,8 liter V12 with bi-turbo had a power output of 748 hp (!!!!) and 876 Newtonmeter. It managed to do 0-100 km/h in 3,7 seconds and kept going all the way up to 333 km/h.

Code: Select allBeneath the steering wheel there is a turbo adjuster. It could be manually turned to boost the turbo from 0,7 bar to 1,5 bar at which the engine performed its maximum power output.

The Countach was a brute force car, definitely no finesse like their rival Ferrari. I've heard people describing that driving the Countach is like brain surgery with a sledgehammer. :D
I can't even imagine what driving the turbo Countach would be like. I would guess insane and fun as hell. :twisted:
