LoL, pretty much the same here. And thanks for that video.
Great catch too! And in light of your post, it’s wonderfully ironic how I somehow typed Mucielago instead of Miura. I was talking about this with my son earlier in the day as well, and he said “Murcielago” as his favorite…my mind must have gone to that conversation as I was typing. I clearly can’t multitask as well anymore! LoL
I truly believe the Miura is one of the most beautiful cars ever built…far prettier than any Ferrari to my eyes. The only thing keeping it out of the #1 position for me is that I don’t think I could bear to drive it in anger; I’d just park it and stare at it.
Rules:
Come on lash, you're better than that... Here I marked all the joints for you, they mortised the ends & then just stacked them up like Lincoln Logs.
Exactly. That's why things like the Honda S600, Lancia Stratos, tons of slow Alfa Romeos and such make up my giant bucket list of cars.
I spent silly money putting ITB's on my car for the sound and character. A buddy asked how much horsepower I gained, it blew his mind when I said "don't know, don't care".
Also why all new hypercars with the exception of the T50/33 bore me to death. I don't care how fast the new F80 is, it's a soulless sounding V6 that stirs zero emotions.
The S600 story is bonkers too.

Damn AI......Look how short her first two fingers are!
That's because they were built before everything became big fat and heavy. Most everything from that time is tiny compared to modern vehicles.
Yup, they weren't exactly worried about making space for airbags and ABS modules..
Small cars are best cars. Drove this one a few months back.
I have a customer that has a LAmbo Aventador, hybrid,
he said it goes about 6 miles on the battery before the motor kicks in, which is far enough to get him out of his neighborhood so the neighbors don't bitch about the noise,,
512, and resto-mod have entered the chat! The 512 Berlinetta Boxer hovers in the top 5 for me… I don’t like it as much as the wedge of the 288 or the curves of the Miura, but it’s a nice middle ground.
And thatV12 Flat 12 sound!
There have been a few tuners and builders who have updated older super cars over the years, but man, I’d love to see what a modern Miura would look like with a modern suspension and a well tuned naturally aspirated V12 controlled by modern engine management systems.
And that

And yeah, those are very cool.
Fun fact: as confirmed by Ferrari, the BB in 512 BB stands for Brigitte Bardot because some engineers were obsessed. Kinda weird, so Ferrari made up the Berlinetta Boxer story, even though it's technically not a Boxer engine.
Liberty Walk just did a Miura, but it offends me a bit. Probably the intention..

Kinda looks like the borescope pic of my 6.5 SAUM barrel after 2000rds
My bud's father was a Longshoreman
His doctor asked him how many beers he drank
He said 3 at dinner.
MY bud said to his father ,"No you don't. U drink at least 12 every nite"
His dad said ," Well John, U think I am going to tell the doctor that?"
We all know who this is on here.
AK something or other.
I should be so lucky as to have "365 Daytona handles like a truck" as one of my concerns!
We have a lot of people like that in our society today. What the Honey badger didn't realize was, the only reason that went on was because the lions allowed it to live. That doesn't make you a badass, that just makes you stupid.
Idk man there’s other videos I think I posted one. The juice ain’t worth the squeeze. A couple tried to eat one and gave up.We have a lot of people like that in our society today.

Sounds like rules for some things. Don’t fight a superior enemy on their terms , and you don’t have to win you just have to make it too expensive for them
Yeah, but you know, facts don't matter to lefties.
Damn it makes me nervous when neighbor does this, specially when the winds blowing.
Pic w/o the tiretrack looks straight out of a civil war documentary.
Yep, but my side of the fence is all woods with tons of leaves and pine needles.
And the wind was blowing my way.
You Have Neighbors???
Them's good neighbors; if'n you can deal with the smell when the wind is wrong.
That’s not a big deal, doesn’t look like there was a ton of grass/weeds to burn. They burn whole forests next to neighborhoods here not a big deal.
10,000 acre fires are stopped with firebreaks, a sparse 3” grass fire will be okay.
Eurotrash nerds and/or diesel nerds, this is for you. I’ve watched both of these several times and it only makes me want a car with this engine more and more
Another 120 HP and it'll match my poor old Dodge.
