Quite possibly one of the greatest intros ever. No doubt

Nearly 40 yrs later and this is still one of the best opening scenes to a movie ever. The roar of that Lambo is so in tune with the song it gives me goosebumps every time

That sound!!!! Never gets old.

Can we all agree it’s one of the best intro’s ever?! 🙌🏻

I’m a simple man. I see countach, I click.

I had a Countach and it was very fast. The batteries would die too fast! Very nice rc though!

Most everyone in this all star cast is gone :( RIP Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore, Farrah Fawcett, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Fonda, Dom DeLuise.

Nothing beats the final moments of this intro when the Lambo pulls past the cop car and just takes off. Sped-up or not, it's beautiful.

I MISS THE 80'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still the most visually arresting car ever built. A total icon and to me one of the most desirable autos ever.

What an intro! Hot women, fast cars, and huge stars goofing on each other. Still awesome in 2021!

Imagine how that stunt driver is feeling running that beautiful beast flat out in the desert

There's nothing quite like seeing a Lambo Countach go flying by at speed. I loved this movie when I saw it back in the late 80's.

The Countach will always be the king of all exotics. That car put exotics on the map back in the 80's.

-Trans Am: Do you know why I pulled you over? -Countach: Because I let you

Some say they are still trying to catch that Lamborghini Countach to this day ! That Lamborghini sound will never get old ! Epic.

i was 12 years old and i was never the same after this

NO SPECIAL EFFECTS THIS IS WHAT MADE THESE MOVIES THE BEST!!!!!!!

Imagine back in the day only seeing pictures of this car in magazines never seeing it move much less here it then this movie comes out you sit down in front of the giant theatre screen surrounded by loud speakers good popcorn and this is what you see imagine how mind blowing this moment must have been being one of the first normal people to hear this car and see it run

Countach was the most iconic poster car of the 80s.

No matter how bad of a mood I'm in, if I hear that Burt Reynolds laugh I instantly smile!!

That drift at 2:15 is a work of art. It goes by so quick, and is overshadowed by the sheer beauty of the Countach, but it is pretty damn amazing.

‘It’s not what you do, but how you do it’

As exotic as all the recent Lamborghini's are today, they lack the pure savagery and raw presence that the Cannonball Countach still holds to this day.

once in a while I always come back to this great intro... the highway patrol Pontiac Firebird is not too shabby either

Every kid had this poster ( the car) ..36 years later and it STILL looks good

Imagine this scene today with the sound effects in theaters today, would feel like you're in the lambo.

I just saw a blue Countach on the freeway the other day. It was beautiful. It was raining out earlier that day too. The driver is not afraid to get the car dirty.

It's was a car in a league of its own. And what a cast!

I saw this on HBO as a preteen in the 80s...when I saw that Lambo, I had never seen anything more beautiful in my life! And there's nothing like hearing that Bull roar!

Best movie intro ever. Nothing beats the sound of a Lambo V12!

Steering like a battleship, terrible visibility, ergonomics like a pretzel. THE Supercar!

Maaaan, this film was, and still is today, one of the coolest car films ever!

That movie was BIG in its time. Still a lot of fun to watch. And the Countach was super light for its time. Thirty seven years ago. We all loved it back then. Good memories.

I love the animated intro and the first purr from that Lamborghini, gives me goose bump every time x3

I remember growing up, when I had to stay home on hospice, I had this movie and watched it everyday for 3months straight, just for the opening scene!!

remember seeing this in the theater summer 1981. when the movie started and the stars names came up, the audience applauded, then cheered, then roared..never ever experienced it in my life since. when movies were pure fun, not mean or gross, just silly fun.

what a cast, Roger Moore laughing at himself and James Bond!!! pricelesss.

I've never heard a Lamborghini countach sound like that this is my dream Lamborghini countach

I watched this when I was 8 years old and fell in love with that lambo! Im Now 42, I’m definitely not wealthy but saved my pennies and bought a black Aventador a few only a few months back, amazing how an opening scene to a film can have such an influence!

Yes, the lambo in that movie really left an impression on me as a kid growing up in the 80's. Watching it now so many years later, it still has such an awe-inspiring presence on the road.

Arguably the most iconic car ever built.

1981 - Lamborghini Countach - A Blonde chick ... amazing

Makes the hair on my arms stand, when i hear that Lamborghini engine roar! 😎😎😎

Everytime a new Lamborghini model comes out, I still think back to the Countach!😍

this was one hell of a fun movie, and it did come out in 1980 as i went and seen it...love that lambo...incredible cast and critics had said it wouldn't ever win anything, but the cast said...who gives a shit, we all had fun and that is what this was all about

That last pull away was real. Even now, that's bloody quick. The music from the engine just adds to it.

Got to love the sound of 12 Italian cylinders, iconic intro! I want to go back in time

That is the greatest engine/exhaust sound ever recorded!

To truly appreciate this intro I think it helps to have seen it back when it first came out. It was my first sighting of this Lambo and I instantly fell in love. Poster on the wall and everything. All these years later I still think this is the single greatest movie intro ever.

I love the exchange between the cops and HQ! That line IT DIDNT TAKE US THAT LONG TO CATCH DILLINGER .... A Classic!

This actual car has now had a from-the-ground-up restoration and has been added to the National Historic Vehicle Register (#30). Currently owned by Jeff Ippoliti, it’s estimated value is now around $10m.

This opening sequence perfectly sets the mood and tone for the movie. Remember when car movies were fun and didn't take themselves seriously?

I was 9 when this came out and had a countach on my wall for the next 10 years. Probably the most influential thing of my youth that got me in to cars

I still drive this car in my dreams on the weekend.

0:29 - 3:53 This scene made me born as a petrol head when I was about 8 years old :) Now I am 42 and still in love with this car!

My dad literally bought a lambo gallardo and I put this song on as we went for a drive it was an indescribable feeling

THIS was MY STORY!! Much of this Movie was filmed in the Atlanta area...and my younger sister is in several 'crowd shots' -- like at the beginning of the race. She and a friend went down often to the hotel where everyone was staying, and where 'the race' began, and 'hung out' during the day. I would ride down in the early evening to get her home for Family Dinner, in my customized Corvette. One day, I got a chance to chat with Hal Needham for a few minutes...and I told him about a REAL 'event' that happened to ME out in Texas a couple of years ago, and how I had gotten around BEHIND a State Trooper who was after me for speeding..!! It was in the middle of the night, and we had wide open highway. We hit speeds over 120 mph, running redlights and 'flying' thru small towns with 25 mph Speed Limits ... still at 100+ mph!! He was laughing constantly as I told him details of the "chase", and when I pulled up beside the Officer and waved...flipped of my vehicle lights (leaving just a set of aircraft landing lights on the front)...and drove away at over 160mph! Of course, the Movie Edition was 'different' in many ways -- like 2 sexy ladies in a Lambo -- and I never got caught! But when I saw the opening of the Movie I was Flattered that Hal and the writers had used my story in their block-buster hit! I did get invited to the "Wrap Party" where I actually got 'talk time' with many of the Wonderful actors...but did not know about the opening scene until I saw the Movie months later. {Hal had even expressed interest in using my car in some highway scenes in the Movie...but when they came back from California and the 'western phase' they had already reached their 'budget' and I never got into the Movie...

Felt like I needed cheering up. This never fails. The car, the purring, the song.. wow.

I remember Everyone was going crazy when the opening scene came on at the Theater back in 1981, Lamborghini Countach was everyones dream car back then. Such a great Time.

Damn this was a bad ass film for a kid who grew up in the 80's...we definitely are breed that runs at a different speed

The Lambo C still looks GOOOOOD!!!!!! 😍

Takes me back to when I first saw this in theaters. I took my girlfriend and a couple other friends. We had a blast!

I was born in 1985. This is still my dream car lamborghinni countach from early 80,s 😍😘❤

This is the most beautiful car ever built. It's simply breath taking honestly

best intro ever

I'm 48 and this film is all my childhood in 80's !

My daughter in law watching this opening giggling: Wow what kind of car is that? That my dear is a Lamborghini Countach...and that is Adrienne Barbeau...

Awesome intro. Hardly any talking, just the music and that awesome V12. :)

Best intro ever! As a kid I watched this movie many times! I freaking love this movie! Nostalgia 🥰❤

Best one ever. Probably of my time. I watched this movie so many times back then that I could quote it word for word.

I'm convinced many petrolheads have this intro as the the triggering factor. Thanks dad for the VHS, R.I.P

God DAMN that sound. Still gives me goosebumps

I will never get bored of that intro 😍

A tribute to the life and times of both adults, and 70s kids. It was a glorious time! Life today is just stale and no freedom.

This film made the Countach my number 1 wall poster! That sound has never been beaten 👍

I was 6 years old when this came out, still loving it at 44!

400 S with optional front wing! Rare and sexy AF!

When I seen this movie as a kid, I knew my life would be trouble 😂

That car is gorgeous! Thanks sound everything about that car but the horn! Lol love it! 😂👍

Still one of my favourite movie intros. One of the best. Still listenin 2020

Love this intro and love this movie. Didn't take itself too seriously. Great stuff.

One of the greatest mix of cast for any movie ever. May never be duplicated again

There were some great car movies in the late 1970's, Cannonball Run, Smokey and the bandit, Corvette Summer, Mad Max, just to name a few, and I've got them all on Blu-ray! Lol!😀

The sound of that V12 screaming is just beautiful. First time I saw Cannonball Run 1 & 2 was like back in 85 on HBO. The moment I heard that Lambo I was hooked.

00:30 to moment i fell in love with the Lamborghini Countach and everything Lamborghini have ever done ever since. One day I will own one, even if i have to cash in my entire pension at 65 and live, sleep, eat, breath & drive in for the last years of my life.

Every kids dream car the Lamborghini countach...

Remember this being a kid and renting the film from the local video shop . Played the starting over and over .. the noise of the lambo with song was brilliant .

This started my obsession and love of cars, watching this after all these years sends shivers down my spine, brilliant 🤩

Great intro. Love the Countach.

It's sad that nearly every actor in the initial credits is now deceased. RIP to all and thanks for this now cult classic.

That is such a lovely piece of machinery it hurts.

Loved this movie!!! Childhood memories.

Love when the countach comes out from hiding it sounds beautiful just taking off! This car started my love for automobiles😍

Never forget the first time I seen / heard this machine in this classic movie. Its the same age as me. What a sound.v

42 years later and that countach still holds up.

Love the way that car sounds

My favourite film intro ever

I grew up in the 80s, love the Countach, but the Ferrari 308 and Porsche 928 are my fav cars from the 80s

This film... Last day of school term in 1982 or so, I was 7. Friend brought the VHS tape of it in and our teacher naively agreed to put it on for us. It lasted about 2 minutes beyond the intro before it was quickly switched off!
