The elder Lamborghini grew to hate Enzo Ferrari (who did not make many friends) and decided to make his own car to compete. One of the most famous Lamborghinis was the Muira:

Maserati fought back with the Bora:

Both companies continue today. And Ferrari is just releasing the V8 Twin Turbo, 670 hp 488 GTB:  photo 488-1_zps0hy6wsc5.jpg

Growing up, my neighbor (former NFL) had a Miura. If I remember correctly, it had six Weber deuces for carburation. Took him forever on a Saturday morning to get them all balanced . . .but when he did the windows of my house — we lived in a nearly all-glass Eichler — would distort and throb with the harmonics.
