For 1989, Lamborghini released the final variant of its supercar—the 25th Anniversary—which honored the company’s silver anniversary as an automaker. The Anniversary model included about 500 small changes and updates over the QV it replaced. These included revised radiator air intakes just aft of the doors, updated chassis dynamics, and interior modifications like power windows and seats, a better air conditioning system, and extra sound deadening. Many consider the last Countach model to be the best handling of the line. It was also the most prolific seller, with 657 sold through April 1990.
The Lamborghini Countach was, quite literally, the poster child for 1980s supercar excesses, and while enthusiasts will forever argue about which generation was the greatest, the model as a whole will forever be recognized as an automotive icon.
