I'm sorry to say this, but I think this car will be a flop, if they ever decide to make it. I really hope they don't...sure it looks good, because it looks exactly the same as the old one...but I think it is pointless...stupid retro crap...

Everso, you seem to be well connected with lambo people...are they really thinking of producing this thing in the future? Any specs?


EDIT: oh and Chaos (name thief ) where'd you get that pic...get some more "real" ones if you can...

Looks gorgeous...but it's still just a barely revised replica of the original...

The performance seems impressive but the design seems like a very well made replica of the original (which is NOT impressive). Kind of a disappointed.

Why didn't they ask Luc Donckerwolke, or even Gandini to design it? It would have been something more original and lived up to the name in terms of innovation and looks.

I consider the Miura to be one of my most favorite Lamborghinis, and one of the most desired cars of all time for its sexiness, beauty, and innovation.

This concept is not a bad car, its just doesn't capture the soul of the original in my opinion. For everybody who isn't much familiar with the original will like it because of the impressive design from the original that still impreses. For me I hope they keep it a concept.

those pics of it in yellow just look amazing. I hope they leave the round headlights which pretty much are trademarck for that car. Making them like current lambos wouldnt be a good idea.

such an amazing machine!!! I just love it!

sometimes it happens that when someone wants to do a "remake", it's just dissaster, but I prefer the idea of keeping new miura looking like old miura

I hope it will be in production
