Nah - the Muira is one awesome car.. but is to much like the rest of the swoopy cars of it's day..
The LP looked like nothing else... and nothing else has ever looked like it..  |
Psh...
First mid-engine road car...that's something a bit off the beaten path isn't it?  |
Well - not quite the first mid-engined car - so being the first road car with such a layout deserves a little credit... but not a lot
I mean the 250LM had the old engine out back... |
Well, the shock that the Miura chassis caused in the automotive world was pretty big. Everyone knew Lamborghini was going to turn it into a road car, but all the public saw was a chassis only seen in racing until then. The Countach's looks were far ahead of its time, but with the Miura it was its concept and chassis that was such a big step.
I'd like to say one more thing. This topic, like it says in the title, is about STYLING! A lot of people that have responded seem to think that irrational_i thinks that the supercars he mentioned are not good cars in terms of handling, power, sound etc. But that's not what this thread is about!
