Just showed a group of teenage boys a 1:18 diecast of a Lamborghini Miura...
Out of the many Corvette and Jaguar guesses, only one kid's random guess got at least the Lamborghini part. Why God :'(

Eh, that's fair enough. If you don't know it's a Miura, Lambo isn't the most obvious guess - it's beautiful, not batshit insane. If anything, suggesting Jaguar shows some car knowledge, because it's quite a good (wrong) guess. And I can definitely see where the Corvette guess came from:

They said, "it's that new Corvette" lol. The Lamborghini guess was random guess and was said as "a lambo". You are right about the Jaguar guess, makes me think he might of seen an E-Type at one point, liked it, and it was stored somewhere in his mind.

I had this matchbox when I was a kid:

It throws up two interesting questions. First of all, who does the Miura look like it was made by, if not Lambo.

Second, because it's more readily identifiable by decade than manufacturer, which Sixties car actually looks most like it should have been built by Lamborghini?
