Liberty Walk

Pemodifikasi Jepun, Liberty Walk, telah memperkenalkan modifikasi widebody untuk Lamborghini Countach klasik di Tokyo Auto Salon 2024. Mengikuti projek modifikasi widebody Ferrari F40 pada tahun sebelumnya, Liberty Walk bertujuan untuk meningkatkan penampilan berani dan ganas ikon tahun 80-an ini.

Countach yang telah dimodifikasi menampilkan bahagian depan yang mencolok dengan splitter yang menonjol dan bumper bawah yang memasukkan penutup jala segi empat yang meliputi tiga bukaan, menciptakan penampilan yang kotak. Canard di sudutnya dengan lancar berintegrasi ke dalam flare fender yang melebar, menciptakan garis berterusan dari depan hingga ke roda. Sisinya menampilkan skirt bawah yang lebih lebar yang menghubungkan fender yang melebar, dan pembukaan tambahan diperkenalkan di depan roda belakang.

Reka bentuk Liberty Walk termasuk lembaran vertikal berwarna badan di ventilasi di bahagian atas belakangnya, menunjukkan bahawa modifikasi ini berdasarkan Countach 25th Anniversary. Supercar klasik ini duduk di atas rim Rohana Forged berwarna gelap dengan gaya “deep-dish” dan tayar Toyo. Spoiler kilang telah digantikan dengan yang lebih besar yang mula dari bawah bumper belakang, menekankan estetika yang lebih terinspirasi oleh dunia perlumbaan.

Modifikasi badan lebar untuk Lamborghini Countach ini kemungkinan akan menimbulkan pendapat yang berbeza di kalangan peminat, dengan sesetengah yang menghargai penampilan ganas dan yang lain tetap setia kepada keaslian yang mungkin tidak menyukai perubahan yang begitu meluas kepada reka bentuk ikonik. Walaupun Liberty Walk tidak mendedahkan butiran harga di laman webnya, syarikat ini kelihatan terbuka untuk membuat lebih banyak set badan ini untuk pelanggan yang berminat memberikan Lamborghini Countach mereka penampilan yang unik dan ganas.

Japanese tuner Liberty Walk has presented its widebody modification for the classic Lamborghini Countach at the 2024 Tokyo Auto Salon, following its widebody Ferrari F40 project from the previous year. The customisation features extensive modifications, aiming to enhance the aggressive and bold appearance of the ’80s icon.

The front end of the modified Countach showcases a prominent front splitter and a lower fascia with a rectangular mesh covering three openings, creating a boxy look. Canards on the corners integrate into the widened fender flare, establishing a continuous line from the nose to the wheel well. The sides feature broader lower sills connecting the widened fenders, and an additional opening is introduced ahead of the rear wheels.

Liberty Walk’s design includes body-colour vertical strakes in the vents on the upper portion of the tail, indicating that this modification is based on the 25th Anniversary Countach. The classic supercar rides on dark-coloured, deep-dish Rohana Forged wheels with Y-shaped spokes and Toyo tires. The tuner has also replaced the factory wing with a larger fixture beneath the rear bumper, emphasising a more motorsport-inspired aesthetic.

The widebody modification for the Lamborghini Countach is expected to evoke mixed opinions among enthusiasts, with some appreciating the aggressive look and others remaining purists who might not favour such extensive alterations to the iconic design. While Liberty Walk has not disclosed pricing details on its website, the company seems open to creating more of these body kits for customers interested in giving their Lamborghini Countach a distinctive and daring appearance.

At the upcoming London Motor Show, which will take place from 4th to 7th May 2017, something rather special will be on display. A customized McLaren 650S built by Japanese tuning company Liberty Walk. The same car that received a lot of attention at the recent Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland.

Compared to the original, this supercar’s exterior has been extensively reworked to include unique Liberty Walk body styling and livery as well as a new front bumper, side diffuser, rear bumper, massive elevated rear wing and wide fender. Though many supercar fans might consider modifying an already perfect exterior as pure sacrilege, the new look and striking paint scheme does grab one’s attention, somewhat.

Speaking of the latest addtion to the London Motorshow, Alec Mumford, Chairman of The London Motor Show, said: “We are delighted to welcome Liberty Walk and can’t wait to see the McLaren 650S in Battersea Park in all its glory. These guys really know how to add drama to an already dramatic car, and they certainly have enough in their armory to be a star of the show. Liberty Walk will invite a new, youthful audience to The London Motor Show and we are very excited for them to set up here.”

The 650S won’t be the only vehicle representing Liberty Walk, two other models will also be on display as well as something special. Exactly what that entails is completely open to debate but to know more, we will have to wait for the London Motor Show.
