1970 Lamborghini Miura front 3/4 beauty. The Lamborghini Miura P400S is a sports car built in Italy by Lamborghini between 1966 and 1973. A mid-engined layout had been used successfully in competition. The Miura was a trendsetter, the one that made the mid-engined layout de rigueur among two-seater high performance supercars. It is named after the Spanish ranch Miura, whose bulls have a proverbial attack instinct.
