So, I'm going to say a restomod MGBGT with a Rover V8 engine with 375 horsepower and a leather interior.
Much bigger than that, although that car is cool.

The new car does have a V8.

Summary of some clues so far:

- Larger than a cyber truck
- Knock off wheels
- Local to Los Angeles
- Not European
- V8
- Modified
- Fits with the collection of oddball stuff

One of the clues above is a bigger clue than it seems.

It's much better looking than that. Nearly everyone likes it (to my surprise). It belongs to a certain category / class that can go wild like that, but this one is super cool and super tastefully done.
