Visited the Lamborghini factory the summer of 1981. Saw the Countach being built. To think that the Muria was developed in the 60's is the original super car indeed.
Still pinching myself after filming this. That engine is something else. There is so much depth to the sounds from the carbs, transmission whine, intake, etc.
You'd wonder how the first owner blew the engine up at Monza with all that oil in the sump. It doesn't have the split sump that the later SV had! Very strange as there was a huge amount of oil in that sump to supply the transaxle and the engine. Can't understand why Bob Wallace di properly restored restore the car as he was its' development driver in period. A strange tale. I can understand why the Illinois loca thought it was a spaceship as it's definitely an UFO!
Really interesting. Your father has exceptional taste, choosing both my favourite Italian cars. I love cars from this era, they are so mechanical and involving from a time before driver aids, just man and machine, producing a sensory overload.
pure magic DTS, thank you... what a gem... I totally get it, our only car (slightly earlier) was an Aston Martin DB 2/4, we picked up my sister in it when I was almost five from the hospital (she's adopted) so as far as she's concerned, she was born in it... she also used to "live in the steering wheel" totally daddy's girl. He too used to race, mainly hill climbs, but this thing was our only family car at the time. Some time later, a very special project was bought home... and progressed over a year or two (like many projects that progressed in the garage, dad was an automotive engineer) only this was a scale model... of a Miura ... its incredible shapes completely engrossed us, of course it had to be the original burnt orange that Marcello Gandini chose for the prototype... even though many years later dad is no longer with us, I still have it together with its little brother an S which like yours is yellow. One day a couple of years ago a good friend who's a mechanic sent me a random text out of the blue that he'd just seen an espada, and he thought he should steal it for a crazy adventure over the hills, I happened to be passing about an hour later and had to stop.... utterly dumb founded with Gandini's beguiling shapes... ... it was not for sale, as it had already been sold, but a guy in the shop (x Ferrari racing driver) was about to take it for a run, realised I was totally smitten, and invited me to join him on his weekly run... so I got to witness the incredible beauty of the engine, its sounds combined with the gearbox and the intoxication of this extremely low and wide four seater, such extreme and extraordinary shapes. The heady mix of Gandini's talent with the brilliance of Wallace, Stanzani and Dallara at that time is hard to comprehend today... thanks for sharing your family's history with us - Bravo!
I really love this video. A spectacular machine, gorgeous photography and a very interesting description of it's history and personal connection. top job! I hope I see it running the Bay Area back roads someday.
Awesome video I really enjoyed this, the Miura is one if the most special cars ever designed and built i helped restore one 15 years back il never forget it.
gorgeous. I could sit in a chair and look at the car all day the way somone could llook at a monet painting in a museum. IAwesome video as well. Great job capturing the engine sound all throughout the video. Please take me for a ride one day,
Finally an owner talks about his car video setting returns!! Petrolicious lost that opportunity before, it took away the passion and personality of those who dared own these magnificent cars.
Spectacular cinema. Really captures the ideal of the dream. Beautiful in every way. The initial start up in order to share the nature of this extremely special mechanical creature is quite a sublime gift from the twilight of the forest. Magnificent.
As I watched this, it hit me; was this filmed on highway 9 along the San Lorenzo River, around Ben Loman and Boulder Creek?? Beautiful setting and wonderful sounds! Remember running my 2001 Mustang Bullitt on that road about two months after they'd resurfaced it. It was magical!
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing the story. I'm inspired to finish my car, 127/3901. Hopefully I'll be able to drive it in 2021 and make a video too!
Appreciate the support! I’m working on being more consistent but we do have a few more videos up since the Miura. If you haven’t checked them out already I recommend you check them out 😁👍🏻
One of the best videos on Muira bar NONE ! As it seems maybe hard to compare. But the truth is a Datsun 240Z is the exact same driving experience. In everyday clothes! Yet still as analog ,still as attention getting, still attention demanding. But can be driven not only all day. But it takes hours to get the smile off your face and off your mind. Try one, you WILL wax poetically upon one ! Just as " beautiful"....
A great story. Forgive me if I sound uninformed - I was always under the impression that the fins on the doors are always in black. I've noticed that this car's fins are body colour. Was this an option or a choice to paint it body colour instead of black? Ever since this video I've seen that some cars have the fins in body colour. I hope someone can shed some light on this for me. Thanks.
In what regard was the audio off in your perspective? Any input would be appreciated. Want to make these as best as possible. Still working out the bugs on how to get good audio and I’m noticing once I upload to RUclips the sound levels change.
I know what you are referring to now. Happens with my parents TV as well. Maybe I should edit the videos with out my Beats headphones. They have really good Bass so the sound is really rich while I’m editing. That kind of happened with the GT4 audio as well. Thanks for letting me know Bill
Un bolide - la Miura e' l' auto piu' bella del mondo - La Miura e' anche piu' bella della Ferrari 250 GTO --- bisogna avere un portafoglio bello gonfio per potersela permettere --- bel video
@@tomdujardin1554 To be honest, no, but it doesn't have the more dramatic fender flares I've seen on SV's so I'm quite sure it's just an S, and the SV has a wider track than the S does, which shares its dimensions with the normal P400 to my knowledge. Also the badge says S on the back lol.
It's an S with an SV nose. The lack of eyelashes and the front bumper, turn signals, and fog lights are SV, but the rear clip and wheels are S. Understandable given its history.
Love the content new favorite channel!!
Thanks Christian! 👊🏻
Miura: The most gorgeous car in the world
Agreed 👊🏻
100%
Yep. Sex appeal on four wheels!
Only ever seen one live here DownUnder... and it was dented! 😎
Visited the Lamborghini factory the summer of 1981. Saw the Countach being built. To think that the Muria was developed in the 60's is the original super car indeed.
The Miura IS The Most Beautiful Car Ever!
Cars like this never age.
The starter motor whine is epic.
My favorite Italian car. This was way ahead of it's time for just it's looks. It looked like it was going 200mph just sitting.
Incredible car made better by the quality of the content and film quality. Great job.
My favorite car of all time. ❤
One of the most beautiful cars ever made. My older brother had scalextric one in yellow. As young boy I remember looking at that in awe.
I think I found a replacement for Petrolicious :)
I am stoked to have you join the Car Tales community! Many more videos to come 👊🏻
It is certainly up there with the best.
The GT4 driving Big Sur was sublime.
Btw the sound of the Miura was perfect.
Thinking the same thing. This format is what made them special to me at least.
5:48 that V12 makes all the right noises
Absolutely gorgeous. Dream drive! More old cars 😉
Still pinching myself after filming this. That engine is something else. There is so much depth to the sounds from the carbs, transmission whine, intake, etc.
The quintessence of design, a treat for the eye, unrivaled, will probably never be surpassed.
i knew i recognized the voice. It's "Hyphen" . Now do some Jason pls
Indeed it is! He is a master at story telling.
You can’t hide, Hyphen! 😝
Clicked on this video guessing it was. Looks like a similar road to where he did the BTS with DTS video on this car.

Heyyy that's Hyphen! Great video, beautiful car.
Who is Hyphen?

Derek Tam Scott. He is the co-host of the carmudgeon show on Issimi 👌🏼
Very smart and cool guy. He told a great story and showcased the car beautifully. 👍🏻
Great video I'll watch it again.
Thanks! Appreciate the support
Awesome looking car. The Miura and early Countach are my favorite Lambo models.

Yes! A both beautiful and accurate story of a Miura. May you keep your father's legacy forever!

Beautiful car. Thanks for sharing it and the story with us.
Nice story! Beautiful car!
The best lambo ever
KOO! Hold on to it!!!
Great car story....you hear so many time how cars can connect people in such different ways.
9:19 didn’t expect to see a supra
I guess I could have left that clip out but I couldn’t resist.
Finally an owner talks about his car video setting returns!! Petrolicious lost that opportunity before, it took away the passion and personality of those who dared own these magnificent cars.
Tons of Petrolicious vibes here. Love it! Well done.
Wow. I almost have to pinch myself and somehow notice/ remember this channel has only 1,800 subs. so so well done. vey much like a petrolicious video
Cool video! Love the car sounds & back story!
Thanks Walter! Many more videos to come!
Beautiful video, beautiful story, thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it! If you haven’t subscribed already we have a few more videos that have come out since the Miura 👍🏻
Beautiful video production of a beautiful car. The steering looks light.
for the quality of camera work and editing this is such a small channel wow

This is a stunning film. Thank you!
Perfect video as per usual man ! Keep up the excellent work
Thank you! Appreciate the support 👊🏻
Awesome from start up to finish
Thanks Paul! We have a few other videos you might be interested in. Including a F365 and F355 👌🏼
@@CarTalesOfficialf365 gts f355 spider great choice
Cool history. Love this.❤
the car of my dreams.
Absolutely fabulous 👌
bodywork was done excellent
An absolutely wonderful video!
Super video (and story) on my favourite car. I may well never have one but have got Simon Kidston Muira book to drool over :)
The Miura is my first and everlasting love, since I was 6 years old 😂 - Matchbox toys birthday gift - Summer 1970
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing the story. I'm inspired to finish my car, 127/3901. Hopefully I'll be able to drive it in 2021 and make a video too!

This is an incredible video
Solid car story!!!
Great video! Would love to hear what happened to the 275 sometime on ISSIMI
No you don’t, was a tragic outcome!
Yellow is fantastic!!! 🔝🔥👌🤩
What I would give to own or even drive such a beautiful Machine😭😍❤️
Awesome! These are such cool cars.
I got so much more attached to it after spending some time in it. The mechanical sounds created from its V12 and transmission are exceptional
@@CarTalesOfficial God I bet. Maybe my Vette will sound that nice somday.
I had one. Drove it about and no one knew what it was. Just a cool kit car where I live.
I bought mine in 1992 for $80K out of Ft Lauderdale. Brought it back to Utah in a U-Haul truck in pieces
Awesome thank you
Lovely car color and imagery. And local. Too bad title talks about the V12 but no footage of the hood open or shots of the engine tho.
I know, I’ve been kicking myself for not including that 🤦🏻♂️
Great story!👍
Miura S without the eyelashes lil a Miura SV. Tricky
Excellent!
beautiful！

As it seems maybe hard to compare.

Beautiful car! Yellow is a very good color for this car. However, the original eye lashes should put back in. That's how it was made.
959: first supercar
miura: 1st exotic
9:15 you think you're cool driving your new supra until some guy shows up in the greatest Lamborghini of all time.
Great vid with very cool story.
Derek’s audio is way off.

What road is that
I honestly don’t remember. Somewhere in the East Bay Area lol.
@@CarTalesOfficial Redwood Road near San Leandro and the post office is off of Pinehurst next to redwood hwy
The Anime Libarian Read Zach’s comment, he hit right on the nose
I believe there was also some shots on Skyline Blvd near Half Moon Bay but I could be wrong
MMMMMMMM❤
To be honest this lambo doesn't look foreign it looks like a muscle car of that era built in America like its a Ford gt does anyone see it
I actually can kind of see it now that you bring it up. Interesting observation.
The designers were very influenced by the GT-40. There are a lot of similarities in the chassis before the body was even conceived by Bertone.
Which other American Muscle cars are you saying have similar appearance to the Miura ?
music lauder than speak
Shame it's the one without the eyebrows, a Muira should have eyebrows I think
Só pq queria ver o motor. 🤬
4:48 :)
how did that indians writing came in the number plate

Damn rust buckets in the 80s

This Miura is modified as SV Look.
The Original Hyper car was the 350hp 1929 DOHC Duesenburg....the original Supercar was the Gull Wing....
This is NOT “S”,but “SV”.
No, it is S
