In the history of LamborghiniThere are rare configurations... and then there are the ultra-rarities, produced in limited numbers, which instantly become collections. One customer brought all his most exclusive Lamborghinis together in one place for a photo shoot. The man behind this extraordinary collection is Albert Spiess, and his garage is considered one of the most impressive in the world. A true journey through Lamborghini's modern history through its most experimental and rare models. Cars produced in dozens, each serving as a laboratory for the brand's future mass-produced models.

Passion begins with a Countach

It all began in 1979, when Albert Spiess bought his first Lamborghini: a Countach LP400 S. It wasn't a simple pleasure purchase, but a turning point. The entrepreneur soon decided to devote less time to his work... and more to his passion. A Miura SV and then a Silhouette join the line-up. CountachThe collection took on an almost philosophical dimension: to own only that which represents absolute excellence. When Lamborghini began producing "few-offs", ultra-limited series designed as technological showcases, Spiess was immediately won over. It's no longer just about beauty or performance, but about owning a piece of the brand's history.

Lamborghini Reventón: the fighter jet on wheels

Introduced in 2007, the Reventón is the first in this extraordinary line. Directly inspired by stealth aviation, its radical lines would set the standard for more than a decade. Beneath its angular bodywork lies a 6.5-liter naturally-aspirated V12 engine with 640 hp, capable of propelling the machine beyond 340 km/h. More than just a model, the Reventón laid the stylistic foundations for a whole generation of Lamborghini V12s, right up to theAventador.

Lamborghini Sesto Elemento: the obsession with lightness

It's his favorite model, and it's easy to see why. The Sesto Elemento is a radical technical demonstration: less than 1,000 kg on the scales, thanks to massive use of carbon fiber, including for the chassis and certain mechanical parts. Powered by the Gallardo Superleggera, it accelerates from 0-100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds. But beyond the figures, it's the philosophy of this car that really sets it apart: a return to the essentials, to pure performance, without artifice. An engineer's Lamborghini... for an aesthetic collector.

Lamborghini Veneno: a spaceship

With its spectacular aerodynamic appendages and futuristic design, the Veneno doesn't seek discretion. It celebrates Lamborghini's 50th anniversary by taking exuberance to the extreme. Technically based on the Aventador, it derives almost 750 hp and benefits from aerodynamic work worthy of a racing car. In roadster form, it becomes a rolling sculpture, almost unreal to watch on the open road. Spiess describes it as a "spaceship", and the image fits perfectly.

Lamborghini Centenario: a tribute to the founder

Unveiled to mark the centenary of Ferruccio Lamborghini's birth, the Centenario pushes the naturally-aspirated V12 to 770 hp, setting a new benchmark for this iconic engine. But what really sets this model apart is its fully track-optimized chassis and active aerodynamics.

Lamborghini Sián Roadster: hybridization Lamborghini style

With the Sián, Lamborghini enters the era of electrification, but in its own way. No conventional battery here, but a supercapacitor system, much lighter and capable of delivering its full power instantly. The V12 is backed up by a small electric motor, boosting power to over 800 hp. The result: sharper acceleration, immediate response and an even more aggressive sound. For Spiess, it's a revolution!

Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4: the rebirth of a myth

The latest jewel in the collection, the Countach LPI 800-4 pays tribute to the original 1971 prototype. Its lines reinterpret the historic Countach with an almost religious reverence. Underneath the bodywork, we find the hybridization of the Sián, combined with the traditional V12. Albert Spiess is all the more attached to this model as he owns one of the original prototypes, restored with the help of Lamborghini's Polo Storico department.

The largest Lamborghini collection?

When asked about his motivations, Albert Spiess speaks neither of investment nor speculative value. He speaks of emotion. The same emotion he felt the day he bought his first Countach. Each car in his collection arrived for a precise reason. A line, a technology, a breakthrough. Nothing is left to chance, and each model tells a chapter in the evolution of Lamborghini. Albert Spiess is also said to be the owner of the unique Lamborghini Athon concept or even the last Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae produced.
