Combination LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1984
Lamborghini Countach 5000S Ferruccio Lamborghini introduced his
exotic Countach prototype at the 1971 Geneva Auto Show. The car's
wedge-shaped styling-created by Marcello Gandini of the Bertone
Design Studio-seized the attention of the automobile cognoscenti.
The powerful mid-engine sports car was wide and low with sharply
angled panels, "scissor" doors, and a forward-placed passenger
compartment to allow for the large V-12 engine. The body was light
and strong with aircraft-grade aluminum skin over a tubular space
frame. Once production began in 1973, the distinctive styling put
the Countach in its own class. The combination of standout design,
performance characteristics, and its stratospheric price tag
quickly earned the Countach its "supercar" status. Throughout its
production life, 1971-1990, the Countach was continuously refined.
A key enhancement came in 1982 with the debut of the LP500 S model
and its larger V12 4.8L 375-horsepower engine capable of taking the
car to a top speed of 170 mph. This rare 1984 LP500 S is one of
only 321 units ever produced and was factory ordered in a highly
desirable specification. This car was imported by Sports Car Studio
in Ormond Beach, Florida in November of 1983, as shown on the door
jamb tag. It is presented in the stunning combination of Black with
Red leather interior as it left the factory in Sant'Agata. It has
been collector owned and maintained since new with only 8,602 miles
(13,844 km's) showing on the odometer. The Countach is one of the
most recognizable sports cars ever produced; it's the Cannonball,
the poster on the wall, the Miami Vice speed machine. The Countach
is an Icon and must have for Italian car collectors. With only 321
LP500 S models ever produced and a great factory spec, as well
finished highly sought after color combination, this car would
certainly be a standout in any collection ! Additional Details: -
