Comparing the engineering of this pair is futile, though. Advances in technology and materials have been cruel to the early Lambo. But it holds a card the Gallardo will never trump. The Countach was, and always will be, a supercar legend.
Correct!

Look at that Countach......! I present to you the car that appeared on more posters in more teenage boys bedrooms in the 80's than all other cars combinded.

They should have compared the C30 to the P1800ES.

The old Mini Cooper really was a "mini"!! It is even more impressive by seeing the Fiat 500' compared to his much younger brother!
