The better-than-factory-restored Miura !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is featuring just overtook the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! as the best ever use of 1970s orange on a road car.

Whoever had this done clearly has superhuman levels of style, taste, gearheadedness, and finances. He may even be !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . I hate him with a passion.

Thank you and your welcome.

Just kidding I wish I had enough money to buy a Miura, never mind restore it, and make it fucking awesome.

I keep hoping somebody will splash a mold off an original and offer a replica for those of us who can’t afford an original.

I think this was the closest we got to a new Miura:

I recognize the bottom car as the one done by V8 Archie. Haven’t seen the first car though. I’d love to see a company like Factory Five offer a Miura; that would be badass.

Nice try, but the Lamborghini still takes the tangerine

Looks like Japanese plates. Seems like IVA is a British copy and this was somehow based on a Mazda. Fac5 could use some design help, their original designs aren’t great and the interiors are all up to you, most look pretty bad.

I love this restomod stuff. I still love Singers because old-school Porsche is best Porsche, but this Miura is just beautiful.

I think Singers can be hundreds of thousands of dollars; how much do Miura's sell for these days? A million?

I’ve been told a British company made a replica, but other than that I couldn’t find anything online. Thanks for the link. The FF GTM is pretty good looking imho, as long as the builder doens’t dork it up with a huge wing. I’ve seen lots of photos of finished interiors; some builders have put a lot of time & money into their and the result is impressive.

Sotheby’s are estimating between 2.2 and 2.6 for this particular example.

It’s not a restomod though, it’s a “faithful to the original but put together better than the factory could have dreamed” job.

Wow, I thought a Singer was out of reach.
