This is a ride that we’re more than willing to bet that none of us will have the luxury of owning. The Lamborghini Egoista Concept is probably the most ridiculous concept car we’ve ever seen. Egoista is Italian for selfish. By looking at this car, if you were to own it, that title would be accurate. Sharp edges, orange rims, and an orange windshield, there is absolutely nothing practical about this ride. The interior, more like a cockpit, is made of carbon fiber and aluminum. It features racing seats and a heads up display. There is no price yet and you can bet there is not word if it will even be built. It’s easy on the eyes, though.

Are You My Ride? Land Rover Defender LXV Special Edition
This isn’t your mother’s Land Rover. This is the Land Rover Defender LXV Special Edition. And it is very special. This is the 65th anniversary edition, hence the Roman numerals in its name. There aren’t very many car models that can say they’ve reached such an achievement. Its 2.2L diesel engine isn’t built for speed, but for life expectancy. There’s a lot we don’t know about this ride, like price and US release, for example. But we can tell, this ride was meant to last.
Are You My Ride? Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept
The engineers at Mercedes really know what they’re doing. At first glance, the stunning Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept looks like a car in a sci-fi movie. It might as well be because it is indeed a concept — for now. The crossover runs a turbocharged 2.0L engine that gets about 208 horsepower. This ride isn’t about muscle, though. The headlights are lasers that have the ability to project images. The air vents shine colored lights; blue for cold, red for hot. It also features two HD cameras on the roof that can be removed whenever you feel like it. Also, we probably won’t see this ride on the road anytime soon.

Price is still unknown but it’ll be a pretty penny for sure.
Are You My Ride? Shelby Raptor
For this edition of AYMR?, we’re stepping away from the sports car and hitting the trails. When you hear the word Shelby, your mind probably automatically goes to Ford’s muscle cars.

The 2.9L supercharger V8 engine pumps out over 500 horsepower. Starting at $18,000, you have the option of three different color schemes.

Of course it’s going be awesome. The Panamera sedan has 95 horsepower, all electric engine, and a lithium-ion battery that can charge in just two and a half hours. You may be thinking 95 horsepower isn’t very much but that’s just the electric motor. It also has a twin-turbo 3.0L v6, capable of getting up to 167 MPH. Like we said, it is a Porsche. Expect to see this ride later this year and starting at $99,000.
