I subscribed to the Countach build and it is the first time I have ever done a parts work kit.
Given the price I was really hoping price would equate to quality. Thankfully it has.
The sheer weight of the parts alone surprised me, but the detail is astonishing. I had no idea that even the rims were made of metal!
Not to be outdone by the kit itself, Model Space customer service is right on point as well. I had a paint issue with the hood and after a quick email conversation with a rep (Colton who is awesome) a new hood was on it's way.
I am waiting for a decent amount of steps to arrive before I start my build but once I do I will be starting a build diary in the forum. I will be doing some custom fine detail to the kit where needed (if the need be) but a straight build of this kit should deliver an amazing finished Countach.
Having recently finished a Pocher Aventador I am eager to get this Countach together to sit it alongside the Aventador.

I just recently got my first pack for the 'Busa and was equally impressed with the quality and parts that are cast metal when they could have done it in plastic.
These guys are first class all the way.

Welcome, indeed! The Lambo is a great kit. I'm up to set 5, but no real time to work on it.
