My '86 Lamborghini Jalpa
 
one of 410 made during the mid '80's
"baby Countach" -
it has 8 cylinders rather than 12
the doors swing out rather than up -
several items (like back wing) are the same as the C/T -
it cost new about $60,000 - the C/T was $100,000 - 1980's prices
the "new" baby Lambo is the Gallardo -10 cyl. - doors out - app $180,000
new 'big Lambo' - Murcialago - 12 cyl. - doors up - $275,000-325,000
more pics later -
I will also post a couple of pics of a Jalpa next to a C/T for comparison -
similar but different!!

Raymond Stofer is the owner of BOTH cars. I think he has another car or two also -
check his sites out -
I think -
www.jalpa.ch
www.countach.ch
if not - lemme know & I'll double check -

jon_s -

I don't use it as a daily -
just had carbs rebuilt & now checking out an "intermittent metallic banging" -
hopefully not major!!!!!!!!
