If you always found it difficult to get inside cars when it was raining, it was perhaps because there would be a car behind you constantly honking or the rain was making you feel miserable. Hence, presuming you hire taxis, it would be awesome if Daihatsu’s quirky-looking DecaDeca concept is used as taxis in our cities.
The car comes with amazing doors that can be slid easily and pushed back and forth. The low level entrance makes it easier to get in and the interiors are just awesome. Of course, this car is not entirely meant for being used as a taxi, but no one would want to own this car which does not look that great. However, to be used as a taxi, it really is an amazing design.

The Mustang is an all American car that has been made famous by Ford. The car almost represents the automobile culture of the people from the other side of the Atlantic. It is known for its compact nature and the speed which it delivers.
Even after many decades of its launch, people are still designing cars that resemble the Mustang in some way or the other. Here is a cool and luxurious conceptual car by Mustang-experts over at Saleen. The S281 comes with an amazing body and the deep red colour only makes it irresistible. If you were to take on the highways with a car that is definitively powerful yet compact, you would choose this amazing S281 Mustang.

If you were looking for a cool concept car, look no further. I just came across this wonderful and almost futuristic TVR Artemis which has been designed by Niels Van Roij. It is named after the Greek goddess of Hunting and the car’s body is made of high quality engineering while a down force is given thanks to the under hood spoiler system.
The very same system also helps to cool down the car. The car is extremely lightweight and the slits on the body of the car are illuminated by LEDs at night. This allows approaching cars to identify the Artemis from a distance and save the occupants from disastrous car crashes.

Car enthusiasts would surely remember the entry from the Russian car maker Dartz at the Top Marques Monaco show last May. We are talking about the sexy luxury SUV called the Kombat T98. After flooring us with that roadster, the brand is all set to roll out yet another special that goes by the name of the Monaco Red Diamond Edition and this one costs a huge €1million. In fact, the claim is that it is the most expensive and sturdiest luxury armored car in the world. Boy, now that’s something to watch out for!
We all know that the Dartz Kombat was a reworked version of the armored car driven by the Russian Tzar, Nikolai II. On the other hand, the Monaco Red Diamond Edition is like a breath of fresh air. The matte ruby paint job is a new one on an armored car. The bulletproof windows are plated with gold, there are 22′ Kremlin Red Star bulletproof wheels and then let’s not forget the tungsten and white gold gauges decorated with diamonds and rubies all over.

And we thought only the cost of making a super car would be expensive. Well, even a book that shows you how to do that comes at a mindboggling price of $4500. This one is the baby of the guys over at Kirkham Motorsports and we are told it explains the various processes involved in the making of a car out of an aluminum billet.
It was the CEO of Oracle, Larry Ellison that brought Kirkham Motorsports into the picture by commissioning them to build an amazing aluminum billet roadster. And perhaps, that was an excuse enough to drive these designers and motorists to make a book of secrets and sell it to the world. We are told that it took close to two and a half years for the book to be completed.

The Lamborghini Reventon Roadster is a topless car which comes in a limited edition of just 10 perhaps. It was announced at the Frankfurt Auto Show and is priced around €1.1 million and could even go up to €1.45 million.
One of the early purchasers is actually putting that up for sale, and the car comes with a 6.5 litre V12 engine and carries about 670 hp. It can reach 100 kph in just 3.4 seconds and has a top speed of 205 mph. The Lamborghini Reventon Roadster looks amazingly futuristic and is one of the best cars I have ever seen, especially because it has a touch of science fiction and art.

If you were looking for the most wondrous car in the world, you would definitely reach the place where a car has been made from an amazing 1,999 items which includes 1,682 t-shirts, 88 pairs of jeans, 64 pairs of shoes and 31 belts.8 people wracked their nerves and muscles in order to build the car at a Puma store in Carnaby Street, London.
The car is 14 feet long and they spent about a week experimenting with the clothing material they might require. It comes with a classic Ferrari colour and the Formula 1 replica looks amazingly real. The car is so fragile that no one can touch it or sit in it, or else it just might break up.

The British luxury automaker has decided to make a fresh start with much talked about Mulsanne. A little birdie tells us that the team of designers and engineers in Crewe took a crisp new sheet of paper and completely redesigned the flagship saloon of the brand. And we also hear that Mulsanne is just another beginning. In fact this new sedan is expected to form the masterstructure for the replacements of the Azure convertible and Brooklands coupe. Just so you know, these two have previously been based on the outgoing Arnage platform that had been designed in the late 90’s when Bentley was owned by Vivkers Aerospace.
The Mulsanne is a whole 11 inches longer than the Flying Spur sedan and works on an impressive V8 engine. We think it is a befitting appellation for the top of the line Bentleys. The world has seen how these have earned a sincere reputation for being high speed roadsters for almost a century now.
