A friend of mine has a Miura (it was the pace car at Monaco in 1967) and it's fantastic in a totally different way than the Islero . . . or the Espada or Countach, et al.  Each of Lamborghini's cars is special in a specific way.  I'm sure the Islero is a more comfortable grand touring car, but the Miura will put a smile on your face as your hurtle down the road literally inches off the pavement.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[M]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2008 12:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Spotted in the wild: 1968 Lamborghini Islero]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</guid><description><![CDATA[You should have blurred the plates.

After doing a triple take when I spotted it, I parked next to it and got out for a good ten minutes or so to admire it, hoping the owner would come out and introduce himself/herself. Unfortunately, the owner never showed, and I drove away kicking myself for not having brought my camera. Still to this day the most rare car sighting I’ve ever made. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 31st 2008 7:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Spotted in the wild: 1968 Lamborghini Islero]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am a student from seattle, and when i was studying in London this past January, I had my nikon 80 digital slr all prepped to snap shots of this Ferrari F430 driving down New Oxford Street in downtown.

Years ago, months after I bought new my 1967 Sunbeam Tiger, I was driving along Elcamino Real (south of San Francisco).  I stopped at an intersection and a Detomaso Mangusta pulled up in the next lane.  The light turned green, and he accelerated ahead.  I followed for several blocks before having to turn, kicking myself for not having a camera with me.  I never saw a Mangusta again except in pictures.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[M]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2008 12:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Spotted in the wild: 1968 Lamborghini Islero]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</guid><description><![CDATA[There was a car show around there in Kettering.

When I worked at a TV station, the production director called me on morning, "Come to the studio.  You've GOT to see this!"  I walked in on a commercial shoot, but sitting in the middle of the room under the lights was a 1934 dual-cowel Duesenberg phaeton.  An elderly gentleman (impeccably dressed in sport coat, slacks and alligator shoes) was standing to the side.  I asked the obvious, "Is it yours?".  Of course it was.  "Did you trailer it here?"  His reponse . . . "Oh no, I drive it at least once a week to keep it in shape."  I didn't have a camera, but took still shots from the studio cameras that I kept for years.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[M]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2008 12:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Spotted in the wild: 1968 Lamborghini Islero]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/31/spotted-in-the-wild-1968-lamborghini-islero/</guid><description><![CDATA[(wolf whistle)<br><br>Love the look of those late 60s cars foreign and domestic.

I had stopped at a little Chevron station in Woodland Hills (or some such). As I'm gassing up I look around to see what else is there. I notice the rear tail light of what could be a McLaren F1. But "Naaah, never ever going to see one of those on the street. Nope, never." It's at the front of island next to me so I inch back to see what on earth could look that similar. It didn't take many inches for me to realize... "Holy Cow! It was an honest to God, seat in the center, fricken McLaren F1". I'm sure my eyes got huge. And of course no camera. Not sure how many F1's are in the states, but I do know that they are only allowed 1500 public highway miles per year. So I know the chances of that happening again are zilch.<br><br>Next, I'm a passenger and we are approaching a stop light at night. I see a high wing on a low two-seater. First glance, I figure it's a MR2 or something with a "look at me" wing. We stop, and I give it the cursory glance. Nope, not an MR2, but a Noble! "Holy Crap!" (which scared the crap out of the driver). Fumble with my camera phone. But all I get are blurred red tail lights and black.<br><br>I've seen 2 Noble's in Southern Cal. since. But doubt I will ever see an F1 again. Not classics, I know. But still cool to see cars like that out in the wild.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MikeD]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2008 12:13AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
