Mercedes-Benz S-Class S600

id need some rims on it, maybe a system, some more modifications and I'd be set

One of the late '60's to early '70's models or the newer ones? Cant remember if the SV designation means its newer.

I'm not aware of a "newer" Miura, the SV was just the last of the original ones. I'd have to have one in a really obnoxious color, too, like chartreuse.

you sure it wasnt some crappy kit car?

Hey bigbad, the dude that took me to my junior prom (2000) took us in his dad's 1976 white Countach. It had like 70k something miles on it. Looked great, but damn it was a turd. It was overheating big time by the time we got there and it was a bitch getting in and out of. Had really cool red leather interior though.

My stepdad has an old car mag, probably C&D, from the early '90's I think that ran an article about a plan by Lambo to begin producing the Miura again. The prototype shown still the same classic bodystyle but with updated technology and ergonomics of course. I just looked at miuraregistry.com and saw no record of any cars at all after '73. It looked by the idea must have fallen through during one of Lambo's 965 owner changeovers. lol

No sir. It was the real deal. Lambo V-12 in back, all original. His dad had owned it since like '83 or '84. I grew up in kind of a weathly community so it was'nt real unusual to see stuff like that. His dad also had a late '70's Boxer.
