Searching for a Countach Kit
I've decided that I need a Countach kit to add to my waiting list.
I've been looking around and seen an amazing choice (mostly Fujimi). As a kid I remember doing I believe the Walter Wolf kit and again from memory it was a nightmare - had to visciously bend the body out to fit over subframe! I expect they are all the same (while the arches etc all popped off). Isn't there also a Tamiya kit? I've seen a motorised one, is the only one that was available? Does anyone have particular experience with these and can offer reccomendations? Thanks in advance!

Re: Searching for a Countach Kit
Fujimi had two lines of Countach kits, Enthusiast one and more simple ones. I made enthusiast version of 5000 special (with wide fenders and skirts) and I was very setesfied with it (OK it was not "Tamiya simple to make kit" but I did it).
I would buy it again if I wanted Countach, just be sure to take enthusiast one. This is mine http://www.hlj.com/product/FUJ08224

Let's see...
Don't discount the AMT, Italera, 'tilt'... I know I missed some. The Tamiya is nice and simple. One of tamiya's earlest sports car kits, interesting to build just to see how far they have come. I've seen some very nice AMT's, I don't know how they are to build though. I'll leave someone else to fill in the rest...

For the time, money and effort, best to stick with the Fujimi Countach's . . . They're the most accurate and detailed models available!!!
Check out the links I've attached and scroll down to the Automotive section. There's two different Countach build-ups to choose from and the dude is just an awesome builder!!! Gallery of J-model works Also check out . . . Japanese Lamborghini Model Club
