Yep, pretty rare too.
If your're ever out in the Monterey area during the Historics in August, you've got to stop at the Concours Italia...You'll see them lined up like this...in fact the "mustard" colored one in front has a Pebble Beach (held on the same weekend) tag on it and if you read closely it looks like it was one of the prototypes! Judging by the water in the backround this photo was probably taken at Pebble and I'd have to check but in 2008 I think they were honoring Italian coachbuilders.

LOL, over stylised and corny to the max. Just a non-areoynamic asthetic obsevational opinion BUT, if its substance over fashion then I'm sure I can live with it.
Nah give me a 937 anyay.

The best start to a movie ever. IMHO. 
When Pebble Beach concourse is on, the streets around here are pure car porn. 
I actually see the same Ferrari 250 California roar past my work every morning. The guy commutes in a $12 mil car!!!
Me jealous....

Too bad the miura hasnt averaged prices like those of the cobra or the gullwing. But regardless, i consider it every bit as desirable as any $1 million or so car for so many reasons. By the way, there is only one lone miura in the philippines The rest of the lamborghinis on our shores are a handful of countaches and the more relatively ""common" diablos and murcielagos.
