Sixty years ago Lamborghini did something reckless enough to invent an entire category. It put a screaming V12 sideways behind the driver, wrapped it in a Marcello Gandini body that still stops people in their tracks, and called it the Miura. Nobody had built a road car like it before, and everyone has tried to since.
To mark the anniversary, Lamborghini has gone back to its own archive and pulled out the Revuelto Miura 60° Homage, unveiled at Monterey Car Week. Just 99 will be built, twice the run of the Aventador Miura Homage that celebrated the same car a decade ago. It’s an Ad Personam project, done with Centro Stile, so this is less a new model than a very expensive dress-up exercise on the existing Revuelto.
Buyers can pick from nine colors lifted straight from Miura brochures, Rosso Arancio, Giallo, Verde Scandal and the rest, each paired with gold or silver lower-body trim that echoes the original’s two-tone party trick. Inside there’s cannelloni-quilted leather across the seats, console and door panels, Miura 60 embroidery on the rear bulkhead, and a numbered carbon plaque on the driver’s side reading 1 of 99. Lamborghini will even colour-match your Homage to your actual Miura if you happen to own one, which, if you’re shopping in this bracket, you might.
Mechanically nothing has changed, and honestly nothing needed to. The Revuelto’s 6.5-liter V12 plus three electric motors already sends out 1,015 horsepower, hits 62 mph in 2.5 seconds and tops out over 217 mph. It’s got roughly 650-horsepower more than the original Miura managed, showing how far flagship supercars have come in the last six decades.
Pricing hasn’t been announced, but with the standard Revuelto starting around $610,000, expect this to land comfortably close to a million dollars once Ad Personam is done with it. Compare that to the real thing. A clean Miura P400 sells for somewhere between $2 million and $3 million today, SVs have crossed $6.6 million at auction, and even average-condition cars aren’t dipping under seven figures.
Which makes the Homage an odd, interesting proposition. It won’t appreciate like a real Miura, and it isn’t trying to. But for the price of one bad weekend at a classic car auction, you get a usable, hybrid-assisted V12 flagship wearing the liveries that made the original famous, with a number plate to prove it’s yours alone. For a certain kind of collector, that math works just fine.
