Liberty Walk Lamborghini Countach Revealed At Tokyo Auto Salon

At last year's Tokyo Auto Salon, Liberty Walk rubbed purists the wrong way when it revealed a heavily modified Ferrari F40, and for this year's event, the controversial Japanese tuner has doubled down on classic Italian supercars with a widebody Lamborghini Countach. This is far from the first time that Liberty Walk has turned its attention to a Lamborghini, but it is the first time that it's chopped up a real Sant'Agata classic (that widebody Miura was actually a replica).

Despite this being one of the most extreme supercars of the 20th century, Liberty Walk has taken it to a new level with upgrades that make it look like a wannabe racecar, albeit one far too slammed for true motorsport.

The upgrades include a new front bumper with an aggressive splitter and canards on either side. There's also a set of over-fender wide arches, a set of new side skirts with their own little air diffusers, a large rear wing and diffuser, and an intake scoop on the roof.

Forged wheels from Rohana fill the arches, and an air suspension system brings the car down to earth while a quad-exit exhaust aims its flames at the sky. Aftermarket mirrors and several decals complete the exterior changes, but little of the cabin has yet been shown. What we do know is that the seats are a set of Sparco Ultra Carbon perches with harnesses, and we suspect that the steering wheel is from the same company.

No pricing has yet been provided on the Liberty Walk website, but if you're in the position to modify a Countach, a Revuelto, or a Huracan (or any Lambo, for that matter), you probably aren't too concerned with figures. Whatever the number, the actual cost is far higher if you subscribe to the belief that all classics ought to be preserved. We understand such a sentiment, and we can't help but cringe at the knowledge that somebody has irreversibly altered one of the most iconic machines of the last 50 years, all for the sake of clout and attention.

Then again, it's probably better than intentionally crashing one just for a movie scene.
