Anwar and I finally sit down in the same room together. On this episode, veteran journalist, Imthishan Giado joins us to talk about all things car. 

We talk numbers in the region. What sells, what doesn't, and how are people using their cars? Are Chinese cars really THAT good? What's the state of automotive journalism today? And everyone's favorite topic, what separates car enthusiasts from mere mortals?

Imthishan Giado: Veteran UAE Automotive Journalist #4

This week, Anwar and I have managed to convince someone to come talk to us. We dive in deep into the restomod industry, with Assyl Yacine, the GCC agent for Kalmar Automotive [https://kalmarautomotive.com/] and Giamaro Automobili [https://www.giamaro.com/].  

 * What's caused the surge in interest in restomods? 
 * What does the market look like in the Middle East? 
 * Are these "improved" versions of older cars actually any good? 
 * Who is Assyl Yacine, and why is he so cool?
