Named to honor the company's twenty-fifth anniversary, the 25th Anniversary Countach was mechanically very similar to the 5000QV but sported much changed styling courtesy of Horatio Pagani. The rear air boxes were restyled and enlarged, while the vents behind them were changed so that they ran front to back instead of side to side. In addition, a new air dam and side skirting, both with air intakes, were fitted, and the taillights were restyled to be narrower, with body-colored panels replacing the upper and lower parts of the previous large taillights. The styling changes were striking on the 25-year-old design, and had the added benefit of improving the engine's cooling, a problem the powerful Countach had always struggled with. The Countach also featured 345/35/R15 tires; the widest tires ever available on a production car at the time. The Anniversary model was produced from 1988 to 1990 when it was finally replaced by the Lamborghini Diablo.

This 25th Anniversary Countach’s first records came about in 2001 when it was serviced by Ferrari Maserati Bentley Lotus of Denver in Highlands Ranch, CO. Between 2002 and 2007 the Lamborghini would go between a few caretakers, adding very few miles during that time. From 2007 to 2012 the Countach remained in North Carolina, with its registration continually renewed during this period, it was driven more than 6,000 miles, and serviced by Lamborghini Carolinas. In 2013 it was purchased by Wayne Lee of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

This is an excellent opportunity to own one of the most iconic 80’s supercars, complete with its thunderous 5.2-liter V12 engine and 5-speed manual transmission. With only 658 examples of these cars ever made, it allows you to join an elite club of owners with such a rare Lamborghini and the last hurrah before the Diablo was introduced.
