    Just saw my first Miura last week at Lambo of Dallas....after years of wondering and imagining what it was like in person. It did not dissapoint! Without a doubt my favorite Lambo!

    if an SV will do around 173mph on approx 350bhp odd i dont see how this with less than 100bhp more, a larger frontal area and worse aerodynamics will do an extra 30mph

    The first-ever Miura Reunion in 2000. We had loads of fun because we decided there would be no one-upmanship (no judging). 27 cars a record Miura gathering to this day. The good old days... LOL.

    This picture gets me thinking: If I were writing an automotive book, I'd do it in portrait style. Magazine-aspect ratio don't properly convey a car's image.

    BTW Joe, now that we're talking. .. . . .looks like a great book cover!

    Never ever this car will fetch 327 km/h!!! Before that it will either fell apart or get airborne!! No Lamborghini from the 60ies/70ies ever reached that figure and if so, I truly believe the driver is....dead!

    Ciao!

    In your (and my) dreams, Helio! The laws of physics still rule even if Bob guaranteed the engine as unbreakable.

    But great photos.

    You got it all wrong....

    The car wasn't tested at that speed. The subject is the title of that pic... !!

    The actual speed was more like 32,752km/h... a matter of placing(or misplacing)the comma !! ;-)

    Anyway... great pic !!
