[h=2]7. 1969 Lamborghini Miura[/h] Source: Lamborghini

The Miura is generally accepted as the world’s first supercar, and it was impressive enough for Sinatra to take notice. So on December 12, 1969 – his 54th birthday – he treated himself to one. Personally ordered at Lamborghini’s Sant ‘Agata Bolognese headquarters, Sinatra ordered his mid-engined V12 Lambo in arancio metallico (orange being his favorite color) with a wild boarskin leather interior. Sinatra was so taken with his car that he allegedly said “You buy a Ferrari when you want to be somebody. You buy a Lamborghini when you are somebody.” Sinatra’s love affair with his Miura was short-lived, however. Within a few years, he had given it to a girlfriend, who quickly traded it in on a newer Countach. In 2004, Sinatra’s car was sold at auctionfor $150,000. Today, a Miura even without celebrity provenance trades hands for over $900,000.
