I saw some pictures of the "new" Lamborghini Miura. Basically they are going to "update" the old Miura SV body shape for today's safety regulations.

I'm completely baffled by the point of that car, other than a kind of "me too" retro thing. Its seems completely at odds with the creased/angular path they've successfully taken with the Murc and Gallardo.

But more puzzling is that this "new" Miura really seems like a parody in relation to the Bertone original, which, for my money, remains one of the most beautiful pieces of rolling sculpture ever built.



I've got to assume some PR pinhead in Ingolstadt or Wolfsburg came up with the idea of a "new" Miura...
