You Will Never See a 1974 Lamborghini Countach Being Driven Like This In The Real World - gallery

Driving a 1974 Lamborghini Countach at its limits is rarely a consequence-free experience, unless you are playing Gran Turismo 7

The original Countach gets put through its virtual paces in the ultra-realistic GT7 racing simulator, and it's almost as good as the real thing

The original Countach was an uncomplicated car, with a complicated character

With a curb weight of 2,348 lbs, it harkens back to the good old days when cars were, actually light. However, it had many flaws, none of which noticeable in the virtual world

A glorious V-12 soundtrack, perfectly recreated in the game

The 3.9-liter V-12 can be traced back to the 400 GT. In the Countach, it puts out 373 hp at 8,000 RPM 266 lb/ft and 266 lb/ft at 5,500 RPM. Power goes to the rear through a 5-speed manual

The original Countach is perfectly depicted as the graceful "pig" we all know and love

Downforce and aerodynamics were just fancy words back then and the Countach makes it apparent as it slides and twitches around the track, from corner to corner

An esteemed virtual competition

The 1968 Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona perfectly compliments the 1974 Lamborghini Countach, racing on a virtual, sunny day, on a virtual representation of the Sardegna road track, in Italy

Not as consequence-free in the real world

There's a price to pay for driving an old, Italian exotic this hard on any road. Unlike the game, in the real world, driving the Countach like this will, most likely, result in some sort of malfunction, ranging from small to catastrophic

Swipe up for an epic V-12 soundtrack and seeing the Countach being driven like few would dare in the real world

With prices for the early Countach, currently, being in the neighborhood of $1.3 million, and with only 157 made, you'll probably not see one driven like this, ever
