I remember a Corvette ad touting that the car was stock for pacekeeping and that it was a first for a production car. Mid 80's maybe?

Lamborghini LM002. They really did build them. There was a time when they were trying to get a military contract.

You know there is something wrong with you when you read about a plane engine failure causing a landing on a highway and you think. Hmm, that's a nice plane, I bet I could buy one of those...
