Wolf of Wall Street Lamborghini Countach could fetch up to $2m at auction

A 1989 Lamborghini Countach that played a starring role in the 2013 film The Wolf of Wall Street is going under the hammer later this year.

Believed to be one of just 12 finished in an eye-catching Bianco Polo white exterior over matching Bianco interior colour scheme, this ‘hero car’ was driven by Leonardo DiCaprio in his role as trader Jordan Belfort. It’s set to be auctioned during RM Sotheby’s upcoming New York sale on December 8.

Chassis number KLA12722 incorporates the famous ‘scissor’ doors that open upwards, while round the back there is a large wing for extra downforce when travelling at high speeds. Given its heritage and movie role, the Countach is expected to fetch between $1.5m and $2m (around £1.2m to £1.6m) when the hammer finally falls.
