The Lamborghini Countach remains an icon of automotive design, first unveiled at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show with its sharp geometry and daring presence. The LP500S update from 1982 amplified that persona with a 4754cc engine, pronounced overhangs and an optional rear wing. Tamiya captures that era in a 1/10 scale model built on the TT-01E chassis for authentic on-road performance.
The Tamiya 58413 is built on the TT-01 Type-E chassis, a shaft-driven 4WD layout known for predictable handling and rugged reliability. Steering linkage refinements borrowed from the TA05 improve turn-in, while the compact wheelbase and wider rear stance help the model feel planted at speed. Supplied racing slicks enhance traction on smooth circuits.
Tamiya has rendered the Countach profile in polycarbonate, including separately moulded mirrors, the rear wing and metal-plated lamp bezels to add scale realism. Headlights are fixed down, but LEDs are supplied for fog lamps and taillights to light up evening runs. The kit leaves plenty of scope for hobbyists to swap motors, tweak suspension parts or personalise the livery.
Enthusiasts will find a broad selection of option parts to refine both looks and lap times, making the Tamiya 58413 a flexible platform for collectors and racers alike.
The Tamiya 58413 suits modellers who value authentic styling and tunable chassis dynamics. It works well as a display piece, a club-track runner, or a base for upgrades that improve speed and handling.
