    I think youll find that the myth of Tom Cruise owning a Miura is just that - a myth.

    Lots of VIPs have owned Miuras. If you are considering entertainers, Frank Sinatra and Rod Stewart must rank at the top.

    True, true. And he was simply the coolest cat to ever own a Miura (or in his case a pair of Miuras).

    Period.

    N. Cage had an SVJ
    Rod Stewart had some
    J. Leno has one
    little Tony had one

    ps. probably Peppino di Capri had one (not very famous though :) )

    Cruise does not look a miura-driver type, more a gallardo spyder IMO

    He no longer has that car, in fact he sold it 2 years ago, and I beleive it is now in Ireland.

    You forgot about Frankie S. and his #4407 . Although I've heard he bought the Miura as a gift to very pretty lady - Gloria Kent :D

    I thought he bought it for himself bringing the wild seat material over to the factory. He gave the car to her at a later date, and she traded it on a Countach.

    Frank Sinatra is mentioned in post # 2 on this thread.... he purchased the car as a birthday present to himself. Kent got it years later.

    That is correct. I found all this out when I "discovered" the car about 7 years ago after it had not been heard of for 20 years prior. We sold it at auction (Christies) and it is with an enthusiastic Scandinavian owner now.
