I remember that video!! And I agree on the white one - if I were to get a Countach, I think my first choice would be white.

I remember that like it was yesterday.

My Dad kept cursing and saying "who in the hell would ever buy that piece of shit for $120K!!"

He has never really been into cars.

Dude, my Dad was legitimately pissed off!! Ha Ha!

He grumbled around about that for weeks.

He will still get all hot under the collar if you talk about things like exotic cars, watches, etc.

If he knew what cars I had, he would personally come to So Cal and kick my ass.

And he is 83!

Hahaha! Wow, sounds like you need to take him for a ride to answer his question as to why people spend that kind of money on cars!

So Cal, do you ever attend Supercar Sunday? I'll be visiting at the end of April and will be there.

The Countach always makes me think about the Canonballrun.

Best intro ever?
