The LM 002 and its spiritual successor, separated by decades but linked by ambition

One V12, Two Wildly Different Lamborghinis

How the Countach and LM 002 proved the twelve-cylinder could do anything

The LM 002's limited 300-unit production run and its status as the spiritual ancestor of the Urus give it a collector narrative that keeps strengthening.

The most-produced Countach, built to be driven

The early LP 400 Periscopio cars and the Quattrovalvole command the strongest collector interest, while the 25th Anniversario offers arguably the best balance of usability and presence for someone who actually wants to drive the car.

Three V12 eras in one frame

Bizzarrini's original 3.5-liter V12 architecture grew to 3.9 liters in the Miura, 4.8 liters in the Countach LP 5000 S, 5.2 liters in the LM 002 and Quattrovalvole, 5.7 liters in the Diablo, and 6.2 liters in the MurciƩlago.
