Here's a good article by a ponytail on the Countach https://www.theautop...they-ruined-it/

 

other deep dives there are good. I'm putting off the V8 one.

He doesn't talk about the back and forth between styling, crash, manufacturing and aero. Typically styling also handle ergo, and sight lines as well, it is not just playing with clay.

That site could employ me as editor, but does anyone care?

 

I read the Countach and Espada articles, as you say Greg, good fun!

The author has a point on the successively shoutier Countach iterations but I still like the Zonda. The Miura is timeless however.
