Followed a Lexus IS250C earlier. Never seen one before, and had I not seen the badge, wouldn't have had a clue what it was. Appears to be a "Coupe Cabrio" version of the IS saloon.
They're rare and seemingly fairly unknown, I'll give you that. A couple of years ago I thought to myself 'I wonder if they do an IS coupe in other markets', knowing that Lexus are more popular in some overseas countries. After a couple of minutes research I realised they actually did a 'CC' here nevermind just abroad. I've probably seen a handful at most. I'm sure with a bit of work they'd have been decent cars and sold better. They can't have been any worse than the SC430, which appeared to sell in reasonable numbers.Lykan Hypersport.

I'm in India this week and they get a nice looking little Honda that I've never seen before - the Brio.
Also there seems to be a tendency to use "VD" as a model designation... although that seems to have escaped the Honda.

H-M-Vehicles Free-way.
The H-M-Vehicles Free-Way (H-M meaning high mileage) was a three-wheel microcar manufactured in Burnsville, Minnesota, from 1979 to 1982.
These small commuter cars had a single seat and were powered by a 12 or 16 horsepower gasoline engine (345cc/453cc) or a 4 hp electric motor.
Around 700 were produced.
