Italian Muscle: 1971 Lamborghini Miura P400 S by Bertone
In the fiercely competitive world of supercars, we’ve come to expect annual upgrades—sharper aerodynamics, more horsepower, higher top speeds, and inevitably, steeper price tags. Yet, every so often, a car emerges that doesn’t just push the envelope—it rewrites the rules entirely.
Enter the 1971 Lamborghini Miura P400 S, a groundbreaking machine that didn’t follow trends—it set them.
With its mid-mounted V12 engine placed just behind the driver’s seat, independent suspension, and powerful disc brakes, the Miura redefined what a high-performance car could be. Designed by Bertone, its silhouette broke every convention of its time, merging raw power with Italian elegance.
Only 50 units of this legendary P400 S variant were ever produced, making it a rare icon of automotive innovation. Today, collectors value it at $2.1 million—a fitting price for a car that changed the game.
