Description
1982 Lamborghini Countach 5000 S – Matching Numbers, Rare Rear Wing, Original Color Scheme, Only 323 Built
Offered for sale is this rare and desirable 1982 Lamborghini Countach 5000 S, one of just 323 examples produced, presented in its original color scheme of white over black leather with matching numbers and the optional factory rear wing. First delivered in the United States, this Countach retains its original character and has been carefully preserved and repainted in its factory-correct color. Now showing just 24,500 miles, this three-owner example represents a unique opportunity to acquire a collectible Countach with documented provenance.
Rare LP500 S – One of 323 Produced
Introduced at the 1982 Geneva Auto Show, the LP500 S succeeded the LP400 S with a significant upgrade—its 4.8-liter V12 engine offered increased displacement while retaining the dramatic styling and performance that made the Countach a legend. This example is equipped with factory OZ alloy wheels, which replaced the earlier Campagnolo magnesium rims while maintaining the iconic “phone dial” design. It also features the signature Countach rear wing, a sought-after option that amplifies the car’s aggressive stance.
Original Interior & Refreshed Paint
While the exterior has been refinished in its original white, the black leather interior remains original, showing only gentle signs of use consistent with the mileage. The cabin retains factory features including stitched leather door panels, the original dash and switchgear, and the updated glovebox latch design introduced with the LP500 S. The repaint was carried out by a Dutch Lamborghini specialist who discovered and acquired the car while it was still in the U.S., ensuring it remained true to its factory-correct specifications.
Well-Documented & Properly Presented
Included in the sale are a clean registration, Lamborghini registry certificate, original owner’s manual, period-correct brochure, and original spare wheel. This Countach has been maintained as part of a private collection and remains a well-sorted example that reflects the iconic style and performance that defined Lamborghini in the early 1980s.
Summary
With only three owners from new, matching numbers, documented history, and its original color and trim, this 1982 Lamborghini Countach 5000 S represents one of the most collectible iterations of the Countach lineage. Its limited production, iconic styling, and status as one of Lamborghini’s most recognizable and exhilarating models make it a standout in any serious collector’s garage.
This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a low-production, investment-grade Countach with the presence, provenance, and performance to match.
