'Stylo' shot...
I even found a write up for the Miura SV...
The Miura SV, a two door, two seat berlinetta, was introduced at the Geneva Auto Show in 1971. It was known as being amongst the better versions of Lamborghini's legendary Miura. The SV stands for "Sport Veloce", which translated litereally means "Tuned Fast". Only 150 units of the SV were made during the 1971/2 production year, each hand built to order. The parts of a Miura body were stamped with the car's serial number. The most significant innovation with the SV was the introduction of separate oil feeds to the crankcase and transmission, finally allowing the use of proper lubricants and limiting contaminants in both. This arrangement also permitted the installation of a new ZF limited-slip differential.
From the outside, the Miura SV was easily recognisable by its bulging rear wheel arches, which accomodated the new 9x15 Campagnolo rear wheels, mated with Pirell Cinturato FR70VR15 tyres.
The transversely mounted 3.929 cc 12-cylinder mid-engine produced 385bhp and was capable of reaching a top speed of 290km/h.
Here's the next one...

Some info on the SLR...
This terrific supersportscar represents in the truest sense of the word a new 'star' in the current history of sports cars.
With that dream sprts cars of superlatives, Mercedes Mclaren ties up to the track record of the SLR of the 50's and understood in its very own way to build a bridge between the part and the present.
In the way, the SLR is connecting the myth of the old Silver Arrows with the high tech of the current Formula 1.
Its 5,439 cc V8 engine delivers 626bhp, allowing the super light carbonfibre car to reach a top speed of 334km/h, and achieve a 0 - 100km/h timing of 3.8 sec.
I swear that if I ever had enough money, I'd get both these cars... Lol... but that's just really a dream now... One's super rare, the other is super expensive. I'll jsut be contented with their models then... Heh...
