I sold Jay my 1970 Lamborghini Miura S which was red in colour with a black leather interior. It had 12,000 original miles. That was in 1988. I don't know if he still has it or not. Here's a video of a 69 S model that he has too: Jay Leno's Garage Unfortunately, I don't have any electronic pics of the car..just old ones. I owned it for 3.5 years and sold it to get married and buy a house. Still married 18 years later. Seeing the video and hearing the car sure brought back memories. Here's a pic of the LAMBO 1 plate I had on it and following that is a pic of when I had it entered at the meadowbrook concours d'elegance:
Nice richy and a very smart move selling the vehilce if you ask me, nothing beats family..nothing :canada:
Did anyone watch the show? I thought it was a pretty good show, and I had a feeling Michael Knight was going to show up at the end. I'd like to know if they're going to bring back the series. The way it ended, it sure seemed like it.
wicked.. you showed at meadowbrook? how freeking cool. I went to medowbrook last year and was blown away. I cannot wait untill this yeast
Richy man I wish you still had some pics of your Lamborghini... Tod071 I love the old series...I love the new movie too...I hope they do a series also.... Guys you can see the movie on NBC.COM NBC Video Rewind
Man, that IS cool. To sell Jay a car means it had to have been nice. I thought you were a Trooper Richy??
I am a Windsor copper and have been since 1994. I owned this car after I graduated from university (UWO) and lived at home. My monthly payment on the car was $1217. My 1st mortgage payment was less than that!! I worked at my father's GM dealership for 7 years after university. I need to get a scanner so I can download some of my old pics. I have some cool ones including a photoshoot of my car along with a red Countach. My father was actually a Lamborghini dealer for a few years in the 70's.
Yea, no shit..it was 80% of my take home pay. When I sold it I made $40,000 in profit so it was worth it.
I drove a GT500 the other day at the dealer, one of the WORST suspension setups I have ever felt, YUCK! But the power was fun I was telling the salesperson that the suspension sucked and he said "you cant compare it to your M5, and I said, "Im not, im comparing it to my niece's honda civic!" Put another 2K into coilovers and its a fun car!
