Selling everything to buy the new Lamborghini Countach? ($2.6 Million Supercar Returns!)

there it is let's see this thing requires the same amount of lambo yoga as my uh no oh it's much better welcome to hoovy's garage the dumbest automotive channel in all of youtube and we've made it to half moon bay in california for the countach rally the 50th anniversary of the countach in my 25th anniversary countach have you all been following the videos for the last half year since i bought this countach it's been quite a journey to get it to this point and i'm now surrounded by well over 20 touches to go on this rally during monterey car week and we are going to drive down to see the new countach that they are unveiling at the quail this is another one of those pinch myself i can't believe i'm doing this moment and that's because you all watch my videos and make well stuff like this countach possible now the drive doesn't officially start until tomorrow but i've already driven the farthest i've ever been in the countach about two hours from monterey california where the car was shipped to here and it did really well the car did great my back was uh a little less than great but these cars aren't built for comfort they're built for speed but they're not really fast either they're built they're built to show off and and they are definitely showing off here i'll give you a little tour of the grouping here which represents pretty much every era of countage and then well we'll hit the road as you can see there's a lot of anniversary cars which were at the tail end of the run on the countaws the most crazy wild looking ones with the side strikes and the wings like my pearl white one which is the only pearl white one here and this red one uh but they're the most common that's the early cars that are less common and as you can see off beautiful and then the two pace cars this was the 1980 monaco pace car then you have the 82 monaco grand prix pace car right next to each other just amazing to see these together and you have a lot more anniversary cars they're a lot more common obviously and people tend to use them a lot more but there's just so many probably more than it's been seen together in at least 30 years or longer if not ever and here they are the thing is though they're only bringing one tow truck along uh with 30 or so italian cars which uh definitely is bold bold move cotton actually a lot a little bit there's one other support vehicle and that's this lm002 it's going to be coming along with those hauling parts an actual dakar rally lamborghini lmo2 with the crazy expensive tires that look ancient just absolutely incredible i can't wait to hit the road in the morning well good morning it's time to go on the countach rally there's already two cars that have had some problems though unfortunately uh one had an oil line that uh busted a brand new oil line that was replaced thankfully the upper one they were able to fix but it was leaking oil everywhere and then another car had a dead battery overnight and them trying to start it and jump it off flooded the car downdraft car uh fouled the spark plug so they had to change the spark plugs but now all the cars are running and we are ready to go my car is parked right next to this beautiful black 25th anniversary that's being driven by valentino balboni himself famed lamborghini test driver that's what he's driving what i'm driving it's just just crazy railroad may have overfilled the tank a little bit we're sitting at an angle well that fuel thing was a little scary but not a big deal we are now officially on the rally and moving and i am right behind palantino in the black 25th block incredible cars behind me including two monaco base cars that were on the road i think all of them are on the road and going and working who would have thought look at this made it to our first stop in santa cruz but it's interesting there's only four cars in front of me two of them are wounded one is running very very rich and smoking a lot backfiring the other one uh the pace car actually is hemorrhaging coolant so that's a two out of four in front of me and about 20 behind they're hoopties they're very expensive cars but they are they are hoopties doing good here so far so good where's wood wood wood wood [Music] i believe so [Music] start at day two i'm inside the touch because it's so loud here at laguna seca so now we get to take all of our cars out on the track and as you saw earlier uh the second part of the rally did not go so well unfortunately the lm002 busted the coolant line and then busted the coolant line again in traffic and then two other countages went down one with uh well maybe a slight fire fire extinguisher was used on it another one had some electrical problems i believe it is back on the track unfortunately i don't see the pace car the one with the lights on it either so that would probably mean four cars i went down the rally but three are back so only one net down and we're going to head out on the track shortly laguna seca a very legendary track the corkscrew in countaches just absolutely unreal and then we staged for a couple of car shows and then eventually the quail where we will see the new countach and i have no idea what to expect [Music] i've never driven on laguna sega before and i'm doing it in a countach look at this look at this so here's the hill this is the legendary corkscrew yes it is [Music] only in video games but never actually gonna do it oh my god it's like a clip [Music] [Music] let's stop because touch pile up downshift hit the gas this truck so many times in video games and now i'm doing it for really cool well that certainly didn't suck no no as we exit the track it was short but it was sweet well we're reunited here at the quail with john tamarion of curated who i've uh turned down twice to uh sell my countach in my diablo but good thing i kept them because i get to do all this going to the quail look at this i mean it's it's honestly amazing having you here thank you vintage teas and all thank you i think you won the attire contest i appreciate it so i'm gonna go look at the touch here in a little bit i may want one and this would be a pretty good down payment i think it could be are we are you saying that we're gonna maybe try to uh ignite this again well i mean it's here in person you can see it now you see how nice it is you know what i have to say it is beautiful and you know you're the only of the 29 cars bianco perlado car just about to 19 000 kilometers interior is really wow it even smells dude it smells like see it's still got a little bit of protective plastic over by the pedal too and you can tell the miles are real because the the the pedals are not worn yeah no it honestly it's a really nice car it actually makes me even more mad at you okay well the market's changed in the last six months so that's changed the market has changed yeah to your favor mm-hmm oh you're really getting into it now i'm getting into it okay at some point at some point so we got a little extra hanger on here i'm not sure what that's for but it's it's extra parts oh okay that actually perfects like a throttle yeah it is part of throttle but the throttle works yes and you're driving you're right you're driving this right here no i'm kidding you know what hey considering you've been driving it it's actually the engine bay is really nice uh zinc coloring on all these sort of parts these if they've sat outside too long that zinc gets tarnished it goes away you know what it's a very honest very nice car can't be that uh critical i have to say okay so what's your new number then i think we were at 225. six months ago you know i would add today without even looking at the market and really going into some research i would easily add 50 to 75 grand 300 yeah yeah no no no no no i can't i can't i can't do it i can't do it i can't do it i gotta at least go look at the new coutons first right i'm not doing it sorry sorry john sorry sorry john well you can close it up for me i'm going to go in oh i need my sunglasses if you wouldn't mind all right thank you thank you all right see you john all right thanks sorry i'm still getting over that a little bit uh this is quite a number that's uh uh more than two for the price of one if i sold the car but i'm not i can't do it the fact that that car is the reason why i'm in here which is the hottest ticket in town in monterey car week is just incredible the quail something three years ago after my ferrari burned to the ground i sat outside in my rented saturn sky roadster and watched the cars come out of wondering what a thousand dollar ticket to a car show looks like and i can definitely see why so i guess i'll give you a tour of some of the highlights of the quail as we make our way over to the new countach and uh check it out hopefully it doesn't suck they have a booth wizard would like yachts 90 million 52 million euros nuts i miss the unveil but there's a crowd that'll sort of unveil it as i get through it but you can see some of our cars made it here including the one balboni was driving i was right in front of earlier the black one but let's let's go see the new counters in person there it is no no i'm kidding it's actually really nice i'm a big fan of retro throwbacks obviously in this nose that is countach it is still right they did it right and it's the same color a little bit of a pearl metallic with a red interior it's it's my car let's see this thing requires the same amount of lambo yoga as my uh no oh it's much better much better this little sunroof in the middle here looks like they have it hooked up to a tinder there's a cover there but there's the v12 800 horsepower super capacitor hybrid but uh very aventador looking in here in strata full digital gauge very cool cross stitch on the dashboard but kind of the spitting image of my 89 25th this is so cool 2.6 million dollars though here it is the new countage only about 110 or so it's being made 2.6 million dollars before options so uh that's a lot of old countaches to sell before you can buy one of these but they certainly did it right didn't they the same triangular door sills carbon fiber let's just do a walk around it looks a lot like an early aventador in person you'll see if you can get uh you can go like that way so it's the name of our company so you get in the middle right there a little challenging walk back we're in treatment gorgeous they actually didn't screw it up i'm shocked i'm really shocked wow touch it peel it work your way around it super capacitor v12 800 horsepower you know i kind of thought they should have left the name dead but now that i see it and just like that we've reached the end of the countach rally the car made it it behaved i know i'm just as shocked as you the countach is actually pretty good and now well back to reality back home maybe we start assembling the dream team thank you for watching you
