Lamborghini delivered the future when it debuted the Miura’s prototype at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show. A statement of revolutionary Italian style, Lamborghini’s Miura can be credited as the first car to pioneer an entirely new era of mid-engine automotive design.

Notably, this show stopping bright green 1971 S model was originally delivered to Edmondo Lamborghini, brother of Founder Ferruccio Lamborghini.

Gooding & Company has set the estimate of this car between $ 500,000–$ 650,000.

The star cars:

1954 Fiat 8V

1955 Maserati A6G/54 Berlinetta by Zagato

1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider Competizione

1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta SEFAC Hot Rod

Oh my goodness . . .

Perfection. Although Joe Sackey refers to the Countach as the racer, and the Miura as the cruiser. As I would mind . . . Dream garage stuff!
