Description
Over 220 stunning pages, Wheels: Modern Classics relives 20 of the fastest, sexiest, most advanced and most-cherished vehicles ever to impact the performance car world.
From the screaming atmo V12 of a Lamborghini Diablo to the hairy-chested V8 of a Holden SS Commodore, we deep dive into their engineering and design, unearthing plenty of secrets you didn't know.
All accompanied by some of the best photography since Wheels—Australia's iconic car magazine—kicked off in 1953.
