1971 Pontiac LeMans Sport Convertible: Choudhury, the controversial guru behind “hot yoga” and alleged rapist was the owner of a substantial car collection that he left behind when he fled the US for his native India such as this Pontiac. In 1971, Pontiac dropped the Tempest badge and made the LeMans their lead nameplate in the intermediate size segment. This was fourth year of the third generation car which was based on the GM A-Body platform. It shared a chassis, and a fair bit of styling, with the Chevrolet Chevelle, Buick Skylark, and Oldsmobile Cutlass.

2012 Factory Five GTM: Billed as "The Fastest Car You Will Ever Build in Your Garage", the GTM is Factory Five's flagship supercar symbolizing their technological abilities. It features a 505 horsepower, L98 6.0-litre Gen IV EFI crate engine.

1966 Jaguar Mark X: The introduction of the Jaguar Mk X sparked almost as much interest as the E-Type. It was a dramatic looking rear-wheel-drive, 5/6 seater that was the successor to the Jaguar Mk IX with de Dion independent rears suspension in a separate sub-frame (a first for a Browns Lane saloon), disc brakes front and rear, and the E-Type’s 3.8-liter XK engine that allowed for a 120mph top speed.

1969 Intermeccanica Murena 429 GT: At the time of its unveiling at the 1969 New York Motor Show it was promoted as the “fastest wagon in the world.” Power comes from a 7.0-litre V8 mated to a three-speed automatic producing 360 horses and 650Nm of torque.

1973 Ford Mustang Convertible: This was one of just one of only 11 Mustang convertibles ordered with Ram Air in 1973. It was sold new in Japan and still retains the JAIA tag under hood. It is finished in Medium Blue with a white top and has blue knit vinyl bucket seats. Power comes from a 351 cubic inch V8 engine.

1963 Bentley S3: The four-door luxury saloon was very similar to the S2, with the most-visible exterior difference being a four-headlamp layout reflecting that introduced on the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III the same model year. It had a 6.2-litre V8 engine.

1965 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III Saloon: In 1955, the long-awaited new Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud was introduced, and with its beautiful proportions was enthusiastically accepted by eager buyers. Very different from its predecessors, it was the last series to be powered by the reliable and long-lived inline six-cylinder engine, derived from the original Silver Ghost engine of 1907!

1978 Rolls-Royce Camargue: The two-door luxury saloon was manufactured and marketed by Rolls-Royce Motors from 1975–1986. Designed by Paolo Martin at Pininfarina, the Camargue was the first post-war production Rolls Royce not designed in-house. The Camargue derives its name from the coastal region in southern France.

1961 Rolls-Royce Phantom V Touring Limousine: Produced from 1959 to 1968, it was based on the Silver Cloud II and shared a V8 engine and General Motors Hydra-Matic automatic gearbox with that model.

1937 Rolls-Royce Phantom III Saloon: This was the last large pre-war Rolls-Royce. Introduced in 1936, it replaced the Phantom II and it was the only V12 Rolls-Royce until the 1998 introduction of the Silver Seraph.
