Having sat in, rode shotgun in and drooled all over a real 400GT Superleggera for a whole weekend I cannot vote anything other than sub-zero.

It is the epitomy of classic Grand Touring V12 motoring.

Borderline subzero for me. This car is classy, yet exudes raw power and superb performance.

Voted uncool. Everything about the car says "classy" (and therefore cool), BUT the weird headlight styling I just find a bit replusive.

One of the most exciting, sexy and beautiful GT ever created. One of the best Lambos too (behind the Miura of course). MUST be sub-zero, no doubt! I think I'd take a 350GT for myself though, not sure why.

Uncool. I don't like frontlights of this car and rest of them is not good also.

I voted Cool...I really wanted to vote Subzero...it'a a curvy and sleek sexy looking V12 Grand Tourer...BUT I like the 350GT bettero so if it would've been the 350GT I would've voted subzero.

Cool, I get an image of a Miura in my head when I think of Lamborghini, not this...

My vote may have been a little bit influenced by the fact that I like classic Italian GT: It is sub zero!
Some details of the styling may look a bit odd, but the proportions are perfect. There is a freshness and airyness over it. And don't forget, this car had a four cam engine and independent rear suspension when Ferrari had two cam engines and a cart sprung rigid real axle.

I think the over-all shape with the curves.
But only "cool" because those headlights just don't cut it really.

It just doesn't cut it compared to other lambos. Granted, Countach is in its own fridge entirely, but Lambos are all about the looks, and 350GT looks better.

Definitely cool - but not subzero.
