1968 Lamborghini Miura Navigation
Early in his career, Ferruccio Lamborghini became transfixed by the sport of bullfighting. Hence the bull insignia on his automobiles, and subsequently, most of his models were named for the world of bullfighting. The 'Miura' was christened for a breed of famous fighting bulls, and somewhat fittingly, the doors when opened resemble the horns of the bull. The Miura is widely considered to be one of the first ever super-cars and this example was completed on February 6, 1968. It was the 137th in a limited production run. Bodied by Bertone, the Miura debuted at the Brussels Motor Show, and with a 4.0-liter engine and five-speed manual transmission, it had a top speed of 174 mph and remains to this day one of Lamborghini's most celebrated models.
The Lamborghini Miura appeared in early 1966 as a prototype and set the automobile world upside down. Built on a boxed frame, almost cheese-like, the Lamborghini 4-cam V12 produces over 400 horsepower. The engine is positioned transversely just behind the passenger compartment, a departure from previous Lamborghini cars. The V12 was also unusual in that it was effectively merged with the transmission and differential, reflecting a lack of space in the tightly-wrapped design. Bertone developed the styling of the prototype, which was finished just days before its debut at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show. The car was the star of the show and the favorable reaction resulted in the production the following year under the name Miura.
The Lamborghini Miura is a sports car that was produced between 1966 and 1973. The car is widely considered to have instigated the trend of high-performance, two-seater, mid-engine sport cars. At launch, it was the fastest production car available. The car is only 42 inches high and getting in and out can be a challenge. Once settled in the car, however, it delivers an experience that few can match.
During its short production, about 750 were built. The Miura, named after a line of Spanish Fighting Bulls, is a magnificent sports car that looks and drives like no other. It has been featured in Lamborghini promotional videos, was also used for Lamborghini's new car introductions, and was shown at the Quail Motorsports Gathering.
