Childhood Dream Car
The Lamborghini Countach was, and still is, my dream car. I had the posters on my walls through college. Had I been aware of the earlier sets that now sell for astronomical prices, I would have purchased one of those, but alas... Anyway, this set...it's awesome. Everything the kid in me would have loved to have back then. The excitement and pleasure of building this isn't diminished though. It's a fun build, very cool techniques used to create the right shape and contours! Wish the wheels could turn to get a cool angle, but man, it is cool to look at. Love the Speed Champions series!

A top pick for precise renditions
March 1, 2022, 12:01, I am in my
LEGO wishlist, moving 1 of each set to buy now!
Gotta best those scalpers buying the whole stock and doubling the price!
The Countouch is a definite win in the category of “most accurately resembles the actual vehicle” for the entire Speed racer line to date.
Within the 2022 series, LEGO included several new techniques for design that are sure to solve many challenges you might face with your own designs.
The finished model is solid, excelling in play, and it's unmistakable shape makes it excellent for display.
Perfect instructions, fun build and a few new ideas.

My dream car
My dream car since I was young so when Lego announced that the Lamborghini Countach was coming out in Speed Champions, I just had to have this set in my collection. A fun build with interesting techniques. The flaw with this build is the windscreen did not have a white print like the artwork on the box, but more of a bluish gray color which did not match the white body color. This set would have been a gem if there were print pieces instead of stickers and a white print windscreen. Other than that, the Lego designers did a beautiful job with this set and I believe the best so far.

It Came Broken......
1 Star it came broken, all jokes aside this was a great set and a joy to build. I wish the build was a tad bit longer, but 30 minutes of distraction is better than none. Also I wish their were less stickers and more prints on not only the speed champion set but the rest as well, some of the sets *cough cough* Nissan GTR Nismo *cough cough* have a ton of stickers and are a pain to put on. Thankfully this set does not have that many. Overall, I loved this set, and it is a great display piece, and I can't wait to see Lego release more sets like it. Another idea is making the Countach a big set like the Ford Mustang, fans would love that, I'm sure. I would most likely buy it myself.

Nice design, one flaw.
Love the design! One issue the white on the windshield looks gray next to the white bricks.

Gorgeous build with one massive oversight
I am absolutely in love with the look of this build. It might just be the best-looking speed champion out there. LEGO perfectly captured the wedge-iness of the Countach, making for an incredibly fun assembling experience that has you building at many different angles. However, what absolutely kills the fun of building this otherwise flawless model, is its STICKERS. It makes zero sense to me why someone would think it's a good idea to put see-through stickers on white pieces, but apparently someone did. Any dust particles or other debris that you accidentally capture under the stickers will stand out like a sore thumb against the white plastic brick underneath. So whenever you go in for good, close look at your Countach to admire its beautiful engineering, you'll just be constantly reminded of the little things hiding under or dirtying the edges of the stickers. All it would have taken was LEGO printing the darn stickers in white. That's the one thing holding this set back from greatness.
TL;DR if you want this set to look good, you're going to need a perfectly sterilized operating room, and surgical precision.

Beautiful
Everything is awesome on this speed champion, the proportions the shapes. Worth the money indeed. Where are my rubber tires? What happened? That's my only critique; I missed the Ferrari rubber tires! Beautiful and smartly designed (decal under the transparent headlight... nice touch.
