That a spicy Italian tamale!


After a mere 15 bids were placed on a beautiful 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 located in New Jersey, the Italian car sold for a whopping $1,700,000. The lot was listed on the Sackey & Co.’s Online Supercar Auctions platform, proving that if you put it online, they will show up in force.

Looking amazing in its original Bleu Miura, the P400 was originally owned by Briggs Cunningham, an American sportsman who made plenty of notable appearances at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Being special ordered by a celebrity certainly doesn’t hurt its value, but the fact it has just 9,846 miles on the odometer and has a highly documented history with only three owners was another big boost.

What’s more, this Miura is the 104th made, so it’s an early production model, which are prized items for many collectors. Those early models come with a 0.9mm chassis, making it a Lightweight, something many find quite compelling for obvious reasons.
