Exotics are nice, but there are lots of cars running around the streets just in the DFW area that will run off and leave most of them... for a lot less money. Amazing what they are doing with twin turbochargers set-ups these days.

I'm not a big fan of exotic sports cars but I do have a Countach related story.

Back around 1990-92 Alpine Stereo used a Countach in promoting their products. The Countach was scheduled to be in Tyler at Stereo and Record Center(now Stereo and Video Center) as part of an Alpine product promotion.

For some reason, the Tyler Morning Telegraph newspaper carried an article about the visit. In the headline of the article the paper apparently decided phonetic spelling was simpler than fact checking or proofreading.

The title clearly referred to the Lamborghini as a "COONTOSH."

Since then, I've never wondered about the pronunciation of the car name but I've also never had much confidence in the newspaper's concern for accuracy.
