The Wolf of Wall Street<\/em> Lamborghini Countach<\/a> went up for auction and, despite a bid of $1.35m, it didn\u2019t sell.<\/p>\n

Viewed at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, which saw action from Fernando Alonso\u00a0and\u00a0Carlos Sainz, a drivable model would sell for $800k<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So, as it turns out, the one that was driven and totaled by Leonardo DiCaprio in the film is even more valuable than that.<\/p>\n

The Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary\u2019s condition is down to Leonardo DiCaprio\u2019s portrayal of infamous stockbroker Jordan Belfort.<\/p>\n

Director,\u00a0Martin Scorsese,\u00a0didn\u2019t want to resort to a replica (as is usually the case) for the scene.<\/p>\n

He believed it would detract from the film\u2019s authenticity.<\/p>\n

Instead, he ordered a real Lamborghini Countach with 11,300 km on the marker be smashed up<\/a> for the five-time-Academy-Award-nominated movie.<\/p>\n

Scorsese had a car rammed into the Lambo off-camera and hit it with a flatbed truck after its on-screen scrapes barely left a mark.<\/p>\n

The 1989 unit was on the screen for three minutes and 11 seconds.<\/p>\n

Another, slightly different, Lamborghini Countach was rented and returned intact. <\/p>\n

This second Lamborghini was on screen for 16 seconds. <\/p>\n

It lacked a spoiler and had a slightly different front bumper and steering wheel.<\/p>\n

As of the final edition <\/a>of the Lamborghini Countach, only 658 units were ever built.<\/p>\n

The American-spec unit is finished in Polo White, which pairs perfectly with its white interior. <\/p>\n

The memorable and darkly comical scene the Lamborghini Countach stars in sees\u00a0DiCaprio\u00a0barely manage to get into the car.<\/p>\n

His character then drives it, seemingly unaware of multiple crashes, due to being under the influence of drugs.<\/p>\n

It was estimated that the car would sell for between $1.5-2 million.<\/p>\n

However the high bid of $1.35m didn\u2019t meet the reserve.<\/p>\n\n

The lot remains unsold and will be returned to the seller in the United States. <\/p>\n

The Countach is one of Lambo\u2019s most iconic models.<\/p>\n

In 2022, Lamborghini unveiled the spiritual successor to the original car, the Countach LPI 800-4 (above).<\/p>\n

Only 112 units were built, and despite the massive $2.6 million price tag, it sold out in hours.<\/p>\n
