Iso Rivolta for me as my Father got involved with them in the early 60's and was selling them at Earls Court in 64.

Was the Miura not 1966? There was a chassis displayed in Turin during 65 but the finished prototype wasn't launched until Geneva 66.

Also clarification did the car need to be new in the year you were born or in production in that year?

Not sure Andy...Just did. Search and it said 1965 Muira......Which was good enough for me.

A car that was show at at a Motorshow that made it to production or one in production.......

Alas, also in that year the less auspicious Austin Allegro was also introduced, along with the Reliant Robin!

Had to google this as i was a bit young in 1966 to choose a favourite, I avoided the obvious GT40 and gone for something a bit left field, so it was either the original Batmobile or Black Beauty from the Green Hornet

There aren't that many greats to chose from the year i was born IMO. If i had the choice, it would be this...... (If it was ever productionised). I think this looks rather futuristic for the time.

Alfa Romeo Delfino

With regards to cars that were actually built, it would have to be:

BMW M6
