The opportunity to invest in one of the most iconic sports cars of the twentieth century doesn’t come along very often, particularly when it’s a groundbreaking car like the 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 Coupe. But now, the Lamborghini Miura P400 has surfaced for auction at the Scottsdale auction at the Westin Kierland Resort and Spa, with bids opening in January 2025.
The 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 Coupe broke new ground across various metrics, from the 3.9-liter V12 engine capable of delivering up to 350 horsepower to the streamlined design that drew inspiration from the compact Austin Mini. Debuting as the fastest production car in the world when it was first released, it has secured an enduring place in the history of vehicles.
Between 1966 and 1969, Lamborghini manufactured just 275 Miura P400s, which cost £20,000, equivalent to over $180,000 in today’s currency. The highly prized thin chassis design and impressive performance, including a top speed of 174 mph, have made it a highly sought-after model over the decades. This exclusivity is enhanced through its refined design that has withstood the test of time and helped make the Lamborghini Miura P400 a true milestone in engineering and aesthetics.
The specific model up for auction has chassis number 3057 and engine number 1190. It has a striking red painted finish and is in impeccable condition, likely to appeal to potential bidders looking for a classically styled sportscar that speaks to its vibrant history.
