2º Miura will be built on the base of the Audi Le Mans,
3º they will equip with the 6,5- liter engine V12 engine, capable of developing 700 hp.
8)

Are Lamborghini going to build a new Miura?? :?:

I see that info, wait more about :P

secret names "" Enzo Killers ""

^^yeah, there seems to be two camps, some say the Miura will definatelly not be reincarnated, some say it will. However, if A007 info is correct, then I'm damn dissapointed:/ I hate the fact how brands like Lamborghini loose their exclusivity by sharing components with other less prestigeous cars in order to save money. First we find out that the future RS6 will be fitted with the Gallardo V10 and now this :(

:roll:
Looks like good things are on their way! Got Automobile Magazine and here's what they have to say.

"Lamborghini will revive its most storied nameplate, the Miura, for a new range-topping supercar. "It's our answer to the Ferrari Enzo. It is a radical car in many ways, it is very light and powerful, and yet it's been engineered more for the road than for the track," says a highly placed insider.
Lamborghini will adapt the mid-engine chassis of corporate parent Audi's upcoming Le Mans coupe to make the limited-edition (300 to 400 units) Miura. Since Audi itself uses an evolution of the Gallardo's spaceframe technology, it is relatively easy to reskin what is basically the same structure. To be assembled alongside the Audi, the Miura will be lower, wider, and shorter than the donor car and could look like our exclusive artist's rendering. It also gets a unique interior with a minimalist cockpit and a period-look center console that eschews such modern conveniences as a navigation system.
The running gear, however, is totally contemporary and includes carbon-ceramic brakes and a paddle-shift transmission. Whereas the Le Mans is fitted with a 5.2-liter V-10, the Miura will boast an upgraded version of Lambo's 6.2-liter V-12. The displacement increases to 6.5 liters, the power to 700 hp, and the torque peak to 553 lb-ft, sources say. The engineers would love to see this beast be rear-wheel-drive only, but they will more likely share a rear-bias version of Quattro all-wheel drive.
The car's design incorporates subtle overtones of the original Miura. While the proportions and some of the detailing hark back to the late 1960s, the surfaces, the greenhouse, and the stance are quite modern. WE could see it in the flesh as early as next year. Georg Kacher"


Also in the magazine,
"More Future Lambos
The Miura is not the only addition planned for the Lamborghini lineup. Two more new models are in the works: modern reinterpretations of the LM002 and the Espada. We'll also see a big power boost for the next Murcielago.

2+2 Coupe
A four-place coupe, Lamborghini's first since the Espada of the 1970s. Could be mid-engined, a derivative of Audi's Le Mans of the Gallardo. Alternatively, might go front-engined, using the next Audi A6 as a base. Supercharged 4.2-liter Audi V-8, the Gallardo's V-10, or the Murcielago's V-12. Could arrive in late 2007 (mid-engine), 2009 (front engine).

LM00X
High-performance version of Audi's upcoming Q5 crossover SUV. 400-hp V-8 or supercharged 500-hp V-10; air suspension.
Four seats, accessed via "swan-wing" doors or rear half-doors. Expect it in 2008.

Watch Out, Veyron
The Murcielago could get a massive power infusion in its next generation, with an all-new 6.0-liter V-12 pumping out 1000 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque."

Remember my friends, I'm the Hunter :wink:

funny how that picture looks nothing :roll: like the Ford GT... some artists need more inspiration... and the image doesnt look like an Enzo killer.

some reason, i dont see lambo bringing this car out anytime soon... particularly before the Murcialago SV/GT, and the forthcoming super Gallardo.

even if they do, to me the Muira is a supercar, but not a hyper car... to me, what the gallardo should've been.

good hunting a007apl

:wink:

" Lamborghini is beginning to show Hyundai-like aspirations, reportedly planning to grow its product line from two to five models in the next few years and compete in entirely new segments. Inside Line reports the Italian automaker is planning to introduce a new Miura based on the Audi Le Mans with an upgraded 6.5L V12 engine producing 700 horsepower. Perhaps hoping for a piece of the SUV pie before it’s all gone, the company also is preparing the LM00X, a high-performance sport-ute with either a supercharged V8 or V10 producing 400 and 500 hp, respectively. Finally, a new Espada 2+2 coupe is also in the works, though whether it would be mid-engine or front-engine is still up in the air. As a bonus, Inside Line also says the next Murcielago could get a version with an all-new V12 producing 1,000hp, which would make it the first direct competitor for Bugatti’s Veyron and give parent company VW two ultra-mega-super-exotic cars in its stable."

"Lamborghini to Resurrect Miura, Espada
Date Posted 10-04-2005

SANT'AGATA BOLOGNESE, Italy — Lamborghini is readying a major expansion of its product range as the Italian supercar maker draws even closer to German parent Audi.

As early as next year, the Italians plan to introduce an all-new Miura, Lamborghini's answer to the Ferrari Enzo. It will be derived mechanically from the midengine Audi Le Mans. The Miura will be lower, wider and shorter than the donor car. It boasts an upgraded V12 engine. The displacement goes up to a massive 6.5 liters, and the power output increases to 700 horsepower.

The next all-new Lamborghini is code-named LM00X, a high-performance version of the future Audi Q5. The LM00X features a choice of two engines: a supercharged, 4.2-liter V8 good for 400 hp and a supercharged, 5.0-liter V10 rated at 500 hp. The LM00X will be introduced in 2008.

The third newcomer is a 2+2-seater coupe, a reincarnation of the Espada. The choice of engine options ranges from the Audi V8 to the Lamborghini Murcielago's V12. A midengine 2+2 could be production-ready by late 2007, but a front-engine version would likely not appear before 2009.

Lambo also is looking further into the future for the next-generation Murcielago, including a limited-edition supercar derivative powered by an all-new 6.0-liter V12 that would match the Bugatti Veyron's output of 1,000 hp.

What this means to you: With the help of Audi, Lamborghini plans to revive two classic nameplates from its past — on modern chassis. "

Remember, The Original Miura inspired of the Ford GT, its part of Lamborghini history :wink:

imo .... audi shouldnt make the LM00X or the 2+2 espada or anything ...
they've made a mistake by making Gallardo ... they should just make a new muira .... settle down for a couple of 20 years .. and then make a new V12 lambo ..... Audi has literally killed the lamboness that should be in a lambo :roll:

But its the Best Time for Lamborghini spa ever :P

:? if you are talking about FIAGT .. they are using the murcielago :P ...
and anyway .. audi is taking advantage of lamborghini :mrgreen:

:roll: bla bla bla bla bla :mrgreen:
:wink:
Waiting for the news model :P

The Gallardo is one or if-not the best selling Lamborghini, there was no mistake with making the Gallardo. It laid waste to the competition it was developed for and it is one of the hottest looking cars of its era.

That Espada photoshop looks awesome!

thank me later :D

Good source confirm:
http://www.lamborghiniclub.com/newmod.htm

Looking freaking awesome! Thaks a lot for these findings.

thanks for the info, this looks pretty interesting... :D

Difficult to judge the car on a single front shot, but it shouldn't look too bad.

Does someone know if this was also designed by Donkerwolke and if the 6.5L V12 +700HP they quote is also the one they will put in the Murci next year?

You say Lamborghini Club lie?
I request one look about that of one friend mine, he has many factory contact.
If he agree with you, I stop with that, but if he dont agree with you sorry, the hunter about that continnue :wink:

I checked, tkx :P
I used Lie because my english its not good, I believe you'll undestand me.
waiting for moire news about :)

Any chance of knowing the truth here too?

At this time Lamborghini spa works in one Super engine (700hp), but the model I'm dont have sure yet, waiting for more ews about.

The Miura is not the only addition planned for the Lamborghini lineup. Two more new models are in the works: modern reinterpretations of the LM002 and the Espada. We'll also see a big power boost for the next Murciélago.

2+2 COUPE • A four-place coupe, Lamborghini's first since the Espada of the 1970s. • Could be mid-engined, a derivative of Audi's Le Mans or the Gallardo. • Alternatively, might go front-engined, using the next Audi A6 as a base. • Supercharged 4.2-liter Audi V-8, the Gallardo's V-10, or the Murciélago's V-12. • Could arrive in late 2007 (mid-engine), 2009 (front-engine).

Watch out, Veyron The Murciélago (above) could get a massive power infusion in its next generation, with an all-new 6.0-liter V-12 pumping out 1000 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque.

yeah! I love the Miura one of the best Lambos!

The green one looks damn nice, but it's like in the new Ford GT, a new car with the looks of the old one.

Is it so hard to design a completely new car ???

Nice.

Lets hope for less Audi in its blood and more Lamborghini. How about RWD for starts?

I understand it resembling the old on cuz thats why they are calling it the miura, but trying to compete vs the ferrari enzo with that shape is something I cant quite understand. Not saying miura's design isnt nice, but I am sure Ferrari Enzo's design wasnt based on looks or it resembling something previously done... Dont think it will manage to get close to the Enzo...

i just dont see it being 'better' then the Murcialago, and im sure it wont blunder the successful gallardo.... how many cars can lambo finance that wont interfere with VAG cars?

i look forward to your synapsis, everso ;)

oh, and Happy new year, i hope yours was as enjoyable as mine was :)

You're forgot one :mrgreen:

Return to the future!


In Lamborghini they speak about "return to the future" in order to define this concept car and the cinematographic citation us seems decidedly azzettaca, why that one that we propose you other is not that a rivisitazione in modern key of the mythical Miura, than just in these months it completes its first 40 years.

Between passed and future
Designed from Marcello Gandini, the Miura - considered in absolute as one of the beautifulr automobiles of the world - in fact is introduced for before the time to the public to the Hall of Geneva of the 1966 from Ferruccio Lamborghini and Nuccio Bertone.
Hour Lamborghini has decided of omaggiare what it is in all probability the more famous model of the own history and at the same time sondare in land in forecast of an ulterior widening of the own range. Yes, why according to the official official notice "the eventual putting in production has not been still decided", that it means however that to Sant' Agate there are seriously thinking...

E' always she
The line of the car remains in fact that one of extraordinary purity of the model originates them. Indeed, in this case De' Silva it seems it are concentrated above all on the improvement of superficial and sull’the elimination of the details superfluous, so as to to evidence of pulizia of the shapes and the proportion of the volumes.
And the aesthetic one has gone of equal step with the aerodynamic efficiency, from the moment that the CX - not declared for the moment - and the aerodynamic deportanza is of absolute relief for one sport stradale.In this way, a true one and own icona of the design it resumes life. "In last the two years of my professional life - Walter de Silva’ has said Director of the Design of the Brand Group Audios and, from the slid month of December, also Responsible of the Design of the House of From Bologna’Sant Agate - I have often caress the dream to redesign the Miura. Hour that I have taken in hand directly the Style of the Lamborghini, and thanks also all’enthusiasm of the President of Automobiles Lamborghini, Stephan Winkelmann, this dream has become truth ".

The "Lamborghini Miura Concept" will be exposed on the stand of the House of the Taurus to the next Motor Show di Detroit.

Between nostalgia and creativity
End here the official facts and declarations, but what to think about this Miura Concept? Ce we are asked it in writing, while we published in preview - pardoned the immodestia, but sure times wants to us... - this article. The aesthetic judgment cannot that positive being, why its lines are indeed beautifulst and also the comparison with not ago originates it them sure to disfigure the job of De' Silva.
The doubts, however, are born just observing the new and the old Miura, why this concept - to seeming of who it writes - is indeed too much similar to the mythical sportswoman of years Sixty. Like for Ford GT, therefore, the excellence of the aesthetic result does not cancel the impression "already seen". Here, for the Miura of the 2000 we would have preferred a car more originates them, than it was limited to cite the creation of Gandini in order to arrive to a formal result more staff. Sure, if this Miura enters in production is a capolavoro entusiasmante, but from Lamborghini and De' Silva - it always accustoms to you from breaking off the outlines - there would be waits for something to you of various.
The word as it always goes to our readers...

05.01.2006

Now, the big question about the new Miura:
Doors Up or no? :roll:

they'd prolly follow the tradition ..... and kep the door's flat ... :? .....

btw the really looks like a somehting ... it'd be betetr iof they kill tose bling rims ... they look pathetic ... :roll:

Designers these days should start to earn their money and work for it instead of keeping reviving old design. Keep the legendary cars legendary and try to create one which will be a future classic. I'm getting a bit sick with all this retro mumbo-jumbo these days....

Recycling all these old cars is getting tiresome IMO...
