Images and Descriptions

Countach

Flagship Countach LP400S was Lamborghini’s dramatic wedge-shaped V12 sports car available in 1979. Early LP400S cars featured the 3.9 L V12, pronounced fender flares and scissor doors, establishing the Countach’s iconic supercar image in period showrooms.

Silhouette

Silhouette was Lamborghini’s rare targa-roof V8 berlinetta, with a 3.0 L V8 derived from the Urraco. Production ended in 1979 after about 52 cars, making 1979 examples especially scarce and sought by collectors.

Urraco

Urraco P300 was Lamborghini’s compact 2+2 with a transverse-mounted 3.0 L V8. The Urraco range wound down by 1979, so P300s that year were produced in limited numbers and mark the end of Lamborghini’s early V8 sports-car era.
