This is one of the strange cars, built by Luigi Colani. This one was built in 1970, based on the Lamborghini Miura.

And it's an repost (Iluvatar - your PM box is full): http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=4499.0 ;)

Any reliable source for "Le Mans" name? I have never heard it in pair with this car, which is sometimes called "Colambo".

It has a limit..
You need to empty it from time to time then you can get new PM's

I was going to merge this one when it was solved, and note that it was only called the 'Miura' last time around.  Many Colani cars are named 'Something Le Mans' or 'Le Mans Something', or even just 'Le Mans', but I'm not sure Le Mans is correctly attached to this one?

Exekiel - you need to be careful to note 'locks' which means only the puzzler for whom the puzzle is locked may answer.  If you post a reply which solves the puzzle when it's locked for someone else you won't get the point and the puzzle will either be moved to Solved without any points being awarded or your post will be removed for the answer to be posted by the lockee. 

You did the same thing on nicanary's NIC #50 so please be careful not to post a reply when it's locked for someone else!  Thanks.
