I only had time to snap a quick pic on my phone. There were Lamborghini badges on the sides and back, so it seems legit and not a kit car. I used to love this car when I was little and despite the odd shapes/overall design of it, I think it still looks cool. Thoughts?

I wouldnt mind driving a kit car version... but they never look right... theres always something... alot of them dont sit low enough to make it look real. that one looks pretty high ride hight wise (and no im not stupid i see that its on a truck, i was judging by fender gap) and the intake vent looks a little misaligned when it crosses the door gap.

It's a handbuilt italian car thats 20 years old do you think everything is going to line up perfectly?

From my own experiance most supercars have relatively large fender gaps to allow for wheel travel.Look closely at the relationship between tire height,the lip on the side of the truck,and you should get a pretty good idea of the ride height.Don't forget that you're looking up at it,that will make the fender gap appear larger than it really is.

That's a kit. The side skirt part on countachs doesn't look like that.

And yes, it's hard to tell from the picture, but it does look to be sitting a bit high.
