LAMBORGHINI

Restored Lamborghini Miura SV

Long before Lamborghini turned SV into a familiar nameplate on the Diablo, Murcielago, and Aventador, it quietly applied the same two letters to the Miura. This was the ultimate evolution of a car that many still consider the world's first true supercar, and of all the SVs that followed, none carry quite the weight of this one.

The exterior of this particular Miura SV is truly fascinating. It's the only example painted in a dazzling shade of Bleu Tahiti blue, with stunning gold accents on the sills and wheels.

For some, the Miura is one of the most beautiful cars ever made, and when presented like this, it's hard to argue with that. The exterior looks absolutely phenomenal, but the interior is just as striking. White leather dominates the seats, door panels, headliner, and dashboard.

Mecum Auctions will offer the car on May 16th at its Indy 2026 event. It has covered just 1,516 km and was restored by an Italian company, which largely explains its exceptional condition.

No estimate was released for this exotic Italian car before the auction, but it will undoubtedly sell for millions. Only 150 Miura SVs were ever produced, and demand for them has never been higher.

Earlier this year, a red example with almost 4,400 km on the clock sold for almost $4.5 million. Last year, another low-mileage Lamborghini Miura SV sold for $4.46 million, but none of them looked as good as this one.

When building the SV, Lamborghini added upgraded Weber carburetors and a different camshaft setting to the 3.9-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine, allowing it to deliver 385 hp at 7,850 rpm and 400 Nm of torque at 5,750 rpm.
