Lamborghini Muira
Full credit to Lamborghini for recreating the Muira, the car which spawned the supercar company from a basic tractor building enterprise. 
I have to say I am rather dissapointed it looks like this though

It used to be the most beautiful car in the world...

This is my absolute favorite. The '99 Diablo VT Roadster: http://www.in6s.com/upload/car/2004831740926487.jpg

My first favourite was the Countach(e?). Followed by the Diablo. Remember when the Chrysler Corporation owned Lamborghini? And developed the V10 for the Viper? The whole ad campaign was "a Lamborghini engine in a Dodge" or something like that.

The Muira was my favorite Hot Wheels car when I was a kid. It raced my Ford GT-40 down the stairs countless times.
The new one looks fine to me - another car I'll never be able to afford. Thanks for the pictures.

Anyone remember the U.C.B. Bank of Ca. commercial with Sandy Duncan as a bank teller trying to spell the customers name, (a long Greek name) who was applying for a car loan?
He helps her out letter by letter, then he mentions the name of the car he's buying, Lamborghini Miura?
The look on her face. He helps her out again.

That '72 Lamborghini doesn't look too bad. The '06 is OK.
The '72 reminds me of a cross between a Vette, Pantera, and a Cheetah.
But I like the GT, both the new and the original GT40 the best.

If it was just to look at, whisper it, but I would take the Muira - I just think it looks so beautiful.

To actually drive, or as an ownership prospect, the Ford GT all the way.
The 250GTO might actually get a look in too, if I can dream and if someone has a spare 6 million???
