Name

The name Miura taken from the ferocious Spanish fighting bulls from the stud farm of legendary bull breeder Don Antonio Miura. The car was also named in honor of him and of bulls (not bullfighting as is commonly misassociated) in general, which Ferruccio Lamborghini, a Taurus, had a fascination for.
