Only 150 different examples were completed with the last being finished in January of 1978. Five different LP400 Countach "Periscopicas" were ordered and and destined to be sold new in Lebanon which at the time was the hub and center of banking and wealth in the Middle East. These were initially all ordered new by APECO SA on behalf of the Lebanese Lamborghini distributorship.
