Aмalgaм’s latest die-cast replica looks like the real thing, right down to the 4.0-liter V12 engine

If you can scale yours down to 1:8, we reckon you can create this incredibly detailed Laмborghini Countach replica. This is the latest creation from the scale model experts at Aмalgaм, capturing the original 1974 LP400 in extreme detail. But you will have to pay a high price if you display this in your home. Pricing starts at $19,995… about $2,500 more than a real 2024 Nissan Versa.

But does the Versa haʋe have scissor doors? This tiny LP400 has the ability to open vertically to reproduce details such as window handles and door recesses faithfully recreated at 1:8 scale. Digging deeper into the interior, we find a precise steering wheel, gauge cluster, gated manual shifter, stereo, retracted speakers and an ashtray in the center console. It’s all there. And it was glorious.

There’s more detail in the front trunk, including brake parts and a spare tire, among other things. When at the front, you can choose to raise or lower the headlights. And when you’re done setting up that neat feature, move to the rear and raise the LP400’s engine case.

Aмalgaм will build 199 of these 1:8 scale replicas, each in Giallo Fly (yellow) or Rosso (red) colors. This Countach project took 4,000 hours of development and it took a small team about 400 hours to fully assemble a project. And since these are products produced in limited quantities, mostly made to order, buyers can choose their own products if they want other colors or details. We suspect such customization would cost extra, but Aмalgaм didn’t provide specifics about that.
