This Utah-based YouTuber first purchased his dream supercar nine years ago – in 2016 – and he took delivery of it again in 2025 after years of restoration, but it came with some big surprises.
His dream supercar is a bright orange 2006 Lamborghini Gallardo that went through a twin-turbo conversion.
His excitement is palpable as giant semi-truck bringing his new – old – dream supercar back to him comes down the street.
The new and improved Gallardo came with some big surprises which were revealed when the supercar was delivered.

Purchasing his dream supercar
Back in 2016, YouTuber James Lucas Condon known online as The Stradman purchased his dream supercar for around $80,000.
His bright orange 2006 Lamborghini has served him well, even on camping trips and driving all around the USA.
He later put the car through a twin-turbo conversion making it almost a one-of-a-kind vehicle.
And over the years, he changed other little parts, too.
The car arrived with big surprises
Unfortunately for the car loving content creator, his dream supercar then steadily became a nightmare.
After he was laid off from his job, his Lamborghini started experiencing serious issues with the converted twin-turbos.
James surprised his audience with the reveal that his Lamborghini Gallardo was delivered to him essentially restored to near-stock condition after removing twin-turbos for the car’s health.
He was excited to see how his gorgeous dream supercar looked in a naturally aspirated state and was pleased with it.
He likened the upgrades to a ‘heart transplant’ for the supercar and with a newly built motor the car looked in fantastic condition.
But this isn’t the end for James’ Lamborghini Gallardo’s upgrades.
Even after having twin turbos installed and then removed, he mentioned wanting them back – so it’s clear he’ll do whatever it takes to get his dream supercar.
