    Andrew:

    Are you referring to the SV in general? If so I truly agree!

    If you are referring to the lime green car in the video, that is not an SV, it is a P400S.

    PS - Spoke to your dad yesterday, what a guy. He needs an SV :)

    There might be a Miura hidden for decades in my native town of Zagreb, Croatia. My brother saw a Miura with Zagreb plates back in 1980. and I heard a rumour or two since. Now a car collector told me that he saw it and that he might be able to add it to his collection within next few months. Sounds impossible but there are still such hidden gems.

    Lamborghini had a Yugoslavian office in '70s and it was located in Zagreb. Are there any factory data with number of cars sold by country? I know only of one Espada that is in Serbia since '70s but don't know whether that car was sold new by Lamborghini Yugoslavian office.

    If you liked the Miura book http://joesackey.com/the-lamborghini-miura-bible/ Ive just shipped off the entire manuscript for the 288 GTO book to the publisher. What a relief! I only mention it here because so many have said that the Miura is their favorite Lamborghini and the 288 GTO their favorite Ferrari, and I'm surprised how many like (& even own) both.

    I think Veloce will have it out in time for summer, and this one will go French & German (as well as English) like the Miura book did, but will be produced in larger quantities because the Ferrari market is far larger. As with my private classic car facilitation business, the Ferrari Supercar (GTO/F40/F50/Enzo) business is 5 times that of the Lamborghini business. Accordingly, the publisher is hopeful that numbers will correspond. Anyway, I'm pleased with the content and I think anyone who enjoyed the Miura book will enjoy this one too.

    Good luck with "The Book of the Ferrari 288 GTO", Joe. My favorite classic road Ferraris are the Dino 246, Daytona and last but not least the Boxer 512 which shares equal first place with the Miura SV as my favorite 2 cars ever. Do you have any plans for a book on any of these in the future?

    Focusing on the GTO book for now. The books compliment my business as they correspond with the cars I deal in.

    Having enjoyed, and still enjoying, your book on the 'first supercar' very much I'm looking forward to reading your book on the 'first hypercar'.

    Thank you Steve.

    The books (Miura & now GTO) were important for me to do and are a result of my passion for the cars, research & photography. I realize that books last forever. Car deals come & go!

    Alan: I completely understand. When the GTO book is published I will have one Lamborghini book and one GTO book. Doing the Miura book first was by design as it is Lamborghini's benchmark original Supercar. Even as a Countach lover myself, I really think the Miura is Lamborghini's most important road-going car to date, and the prices that Miuras (especially SVs) bring clearly justify that sentiment. Perhaps one day a Countach book will follow, but not for a while yet.
