The rare example of the new Countach with delivery mileage is expected to fetch between $2-2.5 million
- The only Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 finished in Luci del Bosco over a Bianco Leda interior.
- Originally delivered in Germany, it shows only 110 km (68 miles) on the odometer.
- One of the 112 examples of the modern-day Countach produced.
We have seen plenty of interesting specs of the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 but the pictured example that will be auctioned by RM Sotheby’s in May 2024, is easily among the best looking. The combination of brown exterior, gold wheels, and white interior makes it unique among the 112 units of the modern Countach reincarnation, sending strong Miura vibes. Furthermore, the delivery mileage and the showroom condition add to the desirability among collectors.
The Luci del Bosco paint finish has been applied to five Countach models – including one of the first examples delivered in the US back in August 2022. However, the model that will go under the hammer in the Monaco auction is the only one where it is combined with a Bianco Leda (white) interior. The cabin features Nero Ade accents and Bronze stitching, with matching Lamborghini emblems embroidered on the headrests.

Other exterior highlights include the matte bronze wheels which contrast with the black brake calipers, and the exposed carbon fiber accents. According to the listing, the “tastefully muted color scheme is a welcome contrast to the often brash hues of other Lamborghinis, serving to underscore the more refined persona of this timeless classic”.
This particular example of the limited-production supercar from Sant’Agata was acquired by its original owner in Germany and has only 110 km (68 miles) on the odometer. This explains the showroom condition of the exterior and the interior, making us believe that the raging bull was only taken outside for the photoshoot.

The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 shares its underpinnings and mild-hybrid V12 with the limited-production Sián FKP 37. Both models are based on the chassis of the discontinued Aventador. In the Countach, the naturally aspirated V12 and a single electric motor produce a combined 803 hp (599 kW / 814 PS), allowing it to accelerate from 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds.
Hopefully, the new owner will put those horses to the test. RM Sotheby’s estimates that the special Countach will fetch anywhere between €1,900,000-2,300,000 ($2,000,000-2,500,000). We will learn on the auction site in Monaco on May 11, 2024.
