Lamborghini Miura review! Today we have a big one: the Lamborghini Miura. The Miura was the world's first supercar, and it's an absolute icon -- one of the most special and amazing cars of all time. I'm going to show you all around the Miura and show all its quirks and features, and then I'll get the Miura out on the road to see how it drives.

Don’t recall Doug to have been more excited than for this review
Doug's excitement is contagious!! 😅
This is not just a car, this is actual history. What a lovely piece of art.
Around 1985-85, I saw a Miura for sale in a San Antonio used car lot (I thought is was a Pantera). I stopped in and asked how much they wanted for it... $13,000. When asked if I could test drive it, the salesman said "sure". He brought out the key, and I noticed it had a hinge at the head. It turned out that (at least in this one) the ignition switch was close to other dashboard parts and a normal length key would not have fit. I still remember the sound of the engine (which started instantly) behind me. I backed the car out of it's parking space, shifted into first, and then another salesman came running out to say they had taken a deposit on the car and we couldn't drive. So I pulled it back into it's space and shut it off. I got to drive a bright yellow Miura about a total of 30 feet!
I love Doug's uncontrollable excitement for this one. I'd be grinning like an idiot too. Well done to whoever let him take a look at this car, and well reviewed.
This video reminded me of what being a car guy actually is. How it feels. The excitement. Everything. Reminded me of why I love cars. Doug is a legend for reminding us about the magic of cars.
Just the sound of Doug being so close to tears of joy is heartwarming
STUNNING! For a guy who originally started making tractors to this beautiful work of art. It would of been awesome to be at the unveiling of this car to see the look on the face of Enzo Ferrari. And Doug you looked like a kid in a candy store. Congrats man! Take care from "a extremely cold" Canada eh!
Doug's excitement about this car is so obvious in the video, but when he got back from borrowing it to shoot this video, he experienced an equal part something else that I often feel after driving this car: relief. Every drive in this car is an EVENT. Even when it doesn't catch on fire.
Seeing Doug’s excitement is great. It’s a reminder that he is a car enthusiast, not just some TH-cam car review guy.

This video needs more likes for how much Doug liked having this experience!
I’m from the south and this is how I say his name phonetically
My grandfather had one in red. The story on how he became a Miura owners was interesting. He was in Italy on vacation and walked into an Alfa Romero dealership. The Alfa 1750 caught his eye and he wanted to buy one on the spot. Little back ground on my grandfather. He owned several heavy diesel service centers in southern Florida and NYC. He also had a franchise license to sell Peterbilt trucks. Anyways, he purchased the Alfa 1750 and while waiting to finalize the deal, the owner of the Alfa Romero dealership asked my grandfather what he did for a living. My grandfather told him the owner of the Alfa dealership what he did for a living and the owner of the dealership told my grandfather that he loved American trucks and wanted a long nose ring. My grandfather told him that he could arrange a deal and the owner stated that he wanted it for his farm. My grandfather told him that he had a slightly used 1968 Peterbilt 359 and that he would part with it for 28k. The owner of the dealer then said I have a car that I don’t fit into very well, but is beautiful and I will trade you the Alfa 1750 and a Miura for the long nose 359. To make a long story short, the deal was made and my grandfather came home with a 1968 Miura and an Alfa 1750. My father inherited both cars and the business when my grandfather passed and still owns both cars.
Watching Doug cover quirks and features: pretty cool
Great to see one of Doug’s bucket list items checked!! I do understand his excitement being a car enthusiast. Great job!
