Re: the Miura...

Mister John, Sir,
as a young dude, may I say, please ...
Yes, I can understand, and agree ... because of the age and the era.

@ Mark : Abso-GT-luuutely! So, if we get out of the affordable range here ... Yessssss! Si is si si siiiiiii!
Those 250s, the Lusso! and several versions ..... yummy yummy yummy! Eye-candy at its best!

Back to the young dudes times, again, though ... I'd like to finish my thoughts with a few more names I had somehow, strangely, forgotten before, and popped up suddenly today ... - then better end this before the subject could take for EVER ......
So let me please say what sounds like music to my (and I suppose some of you guys') ears ....
ISO , BIZZARINI , DE TOMASO .....
... The Mangusta (named to bite the Cobra ... in racing, (but didn't) was one of my childhood-supercars, design-wise.
The Grifo ... well ... was, in fact THE Supercar for me back then. And still is, without the slightest doubt, among the "top 10". What a body!?! (Hey, what is Elle Mac Pherson doing these days, btw?)
And that power ! Orig. a 5.3 liter, later even with a 7 (seven!) liter. ... NM
... Actually, I used to own an ISO Rivolta 300 for a while, in dark blue ... still, IMHO, one of the greatest GT coupés ever.
Extremely beautiful body from Bertone, interior style at its finest, plenty of chrome, and the 327 Chevy-engine as in the Corvette and others.
.....
Before I either start crying or drooling here .... I stop.
Sono finito, signori. Non posso più ... ;-)

Thanks, dudes and Sir John
CU,
Olaf
