A gently copy of everybody's favorite V12 powered SUV, the Jalopnik Fantasy Garage worthy Lamborghini LM002 , has just sold on eBay for an astounding $105,000 US. The bright red 1990 LM American had only 7,300 miles on the clock and an immaculate interior. We never realized how many levers and buttons and gadgets were on the interior of those things, but it looks like the worlds most luxurious backhoe...

Why you should buy this car: Odd vehicles fascinate you. You're open-minded and prepared to accept that a big, tall, heavy SUV can out-drive many a sports car.

We've got enough hopped-up supercars and luxury coupes in the Fantasy Garage, yeah? There's the Veyron, the world's fastest production car in a straight line and the Group B Audi quattro S1, one of the world's fastest around a gravel corner. You can't get more sinister than the Daimler Drophead Coupe and Buick GNX, but you can get more überholprestige (that's German for, "I see the car behind me....
