Lamborghini LM002

In this episode, I cover the Lamborghini LM002, an off-road monster developed by Lamborghini for military use. But the military was not interested so it was brought to the general public and to the rally racing stages instead! 

Thanks for listening!

Lexus LFA 

In this episode, I cover the Lexus LFA. This car, designed to be the icon of Lexus, was never meant to go into production. But with the support and appreciation shown by the world towards this car, eventually, a production run would be created and the world would gain one of the best sounding cars ever made!
