Abandoned supercars Lamborghini Countach and Ferrari 308 were found in the USA. For the past 20 years they have been sitting in the garage of a pensioner's house. The site Autoevolution tells about it.
The supercars of the 80s were accidentally discovered by the American woman's grandson. One day he goes to his grandmother and decides to look in the garage, which has not been opened for a long time.
Underneath the piles of old clothes and other junk, he discovers the rare Ferrari 308 and Lamborghini Countach supercars in question. It is worth noting that the American woman's husband was the owner of a supercar rental company.
After its bankruptcy in early 2001, he sold off most of the cars, but decided to keep these two cars, but did not inform his wife of this decision. Soon he dies and the cars remain in the garage.
The state of supercars leaves a lot to be desired, and they can't drive themselves, and the Lamborghini doesn't even have a steering wheel. However, they will now be restored because they are extremely valuable collector's models.
For example, the price of a 1981 Lamborghini Countach reaches $500,000. This is an LP500S version with a 4.8-liter V12 engine with a power of 380 hp, which can accelerate to 100 km/h in 5.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 293 km/h.
Ferrari 308 is cheaper - it costs about 80,000 dollars. So far, the model year and version have not been established, but it is known that such supercars are equipped with a 3.0-liter V8 engine with a power of 205 to 255 forces.
