At last! At long last someone has decided to model the most beautiful car ever made. Given Kyoshos superb Lamborghini offerings of late this had a lot to live up to and thankfully AA have not disappointed us. Paint and chromework cannot be faulted and everything is as it should be in a sub Exoto price model. The first thing that strikes you is the stance of this model it just looks right and it sits quite squarely on its wheels.
The interior is spartan but accurate and fully carpeted. Stand out features for me are the detailing under the front hood and the very realistic looking wheels ,but it is slightly disappointing that the suspension does not work.
  The lights pop up by virtue of a tiny spring loaded switch under the front hood. This is one model that would really benefit from a rotating stand as it looks gorgeous from whatever aspect you can view it from.
  As a boy the Miura set the benchmark for all that is beautiful in cars and owning this model now is a real treat given the overall excellence of its rendering. Was there ever a more beautiful car errrr.....

Thank you, thank you, thank you AutoArt for answering my prayers, of a diecast company to finally make a model of one of the most beautiful automobiles ever built. First off, anyone out there who even remotely consideres themselves a collector should have at least one of these models in there collection in one of the colors. The paint looks like glass, it is so smooth and reflective. The interior is captured down to the last tiny detail, and the V-12 engine is absolutely stunning. And for AutoArt to also make the front and rear open and hinge like the real car, AND to also include realistic flip up headlamps and a carpeted trunk below the rear louvers, is fantastic. I can't believe I got this model for only $53.00. If anyone wants to start a diecast collection, this should be one of the first cars bought. You don't even need to be a fan of Lamborghini to appreciate this car. Autoart does it again, with a stunning model at an unbelievable pricepoint. An absolute must have for the money. I will definitely be buying the Orange car next, as I love this model.

I respectfully disagree with the enthusiastic reviews of this car. While it is nicely executed (especially the paint and the opening hood and trunk), I do not like the abundance of plastic throughout, i.e the undercarriage, but also the engine. Also, the decals (Miura with a silver bull, on the side panels behind the door) come off easily. They should be tamponed. It boils down to a question of value for the money. Nice miniature, but too expensive for what you get.
