Description
The black Lamborghini Countach LP400S that opens The Cannonball Run is one of cinema’s great entrances: a couple of minutes of V12 noise, a radar detector and a blacked-out wedge disappearing into the American night. It set the tone for the whole film before a word of dialogue was spoken.
The LP400S was the Countach that made the shape famous. Launched in 1978, it traded the original LP400’s slim hips for Bertone’s flared wheel arch extensions, wide Pirelli P7 tyres and Campagnolo alloys, and offered the optional rear wing that became the car’s signature. It was slower than the LP400 in a straight line and nobody cared, because it looked like nothing else on earth.
Kyosho’s 1:18 die-cast recreates the film car in black, with the panel fit, paint depth and cabin detailing collectors expect from the brand’s static range.
