Lamborghini Will Gather Over 40 Miuras on Pebble Beach's 3rd Fairway for the Car's 60th Birthday
For the first time in the Concours d'Elegance's history, a fairway at Pebble Beach Golf Links will be opened to a single-marque tribute, as Lamborghini assembles what it calls the largest gathering of Miuras ever staged.
On Sunday, August 16, the 3rd fairway of Pebble Beach Golf Links will be closed to golf for the first time during Concours week and opened instead to a lineup of Lamborghini Miuras. Automobili Lamborghini is calling it the largest gathering of Miuras ever assembled in one place, timed to the car's 60th anniversary and staged as part of the 75th Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
More than 40 Miuras are expected to line the fairway, a number the organizers say will surpass the turnouts staged for the model's 40th and 50th anniversary celebrations. The display is being organized with Lamborghini Club USA, drawing on a collector base the company says is now the largest in the world for the model, concentrated in the United States, its top global market.
The Miura's history is well established among enthusiasts but still striking on paper. Unveiled in 1966 and styled by a young Marcello Gandini at Bertone, it put the engine transversely behind the driver in a road car for the first time, a layout that essentially wrote the template every supercar since has followed. Lamborghini was, at the time, a tractor-and-industrial-equipment maker barely three years into building cars at all.
Pebble Beach Concours president Vince Finaldi framed the choice to hand over a fairway in terms of the event's own identity. "Part of what makes Pebble Beach so special is that this is where automotive history is made," Finaldi said in the announcement. "This August, the power of Pebble will become evident again as we assemble the world's largest gathering of Miuras ever, to celebrate its 60th anniversary."
Lamborghini chairman and CEO Stephan Winkelmann was more direct about what the car changed. "Few automobiles have changed the course of history the way the Miura did," he said. "It wasn't simply a beautiful car or an engineering milestone, it changed how the world imagined performance, design, and desire."
The gesture of opening a fairway matters as much to Concours regulars as the car count does. Pebble Beach's show field, fairways included, is tightly rationed real estate, built around a lawn that has hosted the same Sunday-morning ritual for decades. Giving one marque's single model an entire fairway, rather than a subsection of the main show field, is a structural change to the event, not just a themed class, and organizers are treating it as a one-time nod to a car that reshaped the category it belongs to.
The display opens to the public on Sunday, August 16, alongside the main Concours d'Elegance show on the 18th fairway, giving Car Week visitors a chance to walk a fairway of nothing but Miuras. Whether the exact final count clears 40 or climbs higher won't be settled until the cars are actually parked in rows on the grass, but the scale being promised, and the fact that Pebble Beach was willing to give up part of its golf course for it, says something about how the car is still regarded six decades on.
