While growing up, boys tend to keep a bunch of posters on their walls.

Movie stars, girls, comic book characters, and cars are all common sights. But of all the cars, one was always more common than the rest.

The Lamborghini Countach.

Designed as the successor to the groundbreaking and beautiful Miura, the Countach was a radical departure with a striking appearance.

Flowing curves were gone, replaced by angles that seemed to be from outer space. When the car made its debut in 1974, it looked very different from everything else on the road.

Over the years, the Countach evolved in design and performance. The engine grew in displacement and the body grew some extra appendages in the form of wings and cooling ducts.

The model featured here, an Anniversary Edition (via Hemmings) is the last of the breed. It also had the most power of any of the Countaches produced which made for a monster top speed of around 185 miles per hour.
