That was the car that started the entire car fascination for me. That exact car was a poster on my wall from the time I was 8 years old.

I used to love that one too, along with the 308, 930..... So do you think our generation will have an affliction with late 80's and 90's exotics, much like the baby bomer generation?

What exactly is a "downdraft" Countach??? They seem to be more rare/expensive than "normal" Countachs, but I'm unclear as to what the difference is.

yes, it is a downdraught, the Quattrovalve cars from 85 1/2 and on come either Fuel Injected (USA cars) or Carburated (Euro Spec) there are rumor only 12-20 cars made it in the USA. the horsepower was about 50hp more.

thanks for the nice comments, it was my dream car in high school that became a reality
