The show will kick off by checking out some weird Suzuki Jimnys coming to the Tokyo Auto Salon. The tuning company DAMD has introduced kits to make the little off-roader look like classic rally cars. One emulates the Lancia Delta’s appearance, and the other borrows the styling from the Renault R5 Turbo.

There’s also a concept car with a weird story. The S-Classic Digital “My MBUX” debuted in 2020. Somehow, it ended up in a junkyard outside of Atlanta.

Continuing the weird car trend, the Japanese tuner Liberty Walk is building a widebody Lamborghini Countach. Seeing such an iconic vehicle get such a styling overhaul is surprising. 

It’ll be a short episode this week. But the show must go on!
