This toy car is cool but crazy covered with thousands of toys that the owner most likely collected as a child. Probably eager to show off his massive collection, or just wanting to give his Saab a second life as a cool art-car, the man behind this crazy creation glued all these toys all over the body of his old ride.




Check out more photos of the awesome Toy Car on AzyxA’s Flickr stream.

Take a look at this cool classic Jaguar E-Type with a paint job of a jaguar. This paint job was applied way back in 1961 when the first E-Types arrived at American Jaguar dealerships. One such dealer thought it would be a good idea to tart up one of his stock and park it in the showroom as a promotional gimmick. It appears this car has been mildly restored over the years but its wild, animalistic “skin” still looks fresh. Cool eh!

Avion car or which means "flight" began the journey 1400 miles from Canada and ending in Mexico, by using only one tank of fuel. The car successfully completed the trip with an average fuel consumption of 119.1 mpg or only about 1.97 liters for 100 kilometers.

People who build and drive a car, Craig Henderson, had defeated two previous records, with the same car, several times since 1986. But what makes the difference with today is the use of new technology, including Fuel Max tires Goodyear Assurance that uses advanced technology that makes fuel economy. "Goodyear's Fuel Max tires help provide fuel savings that we want, and this tire has a very good ability on the track wet and dry." Henderson said. "Avion has reached 113 miles per gallon at an average speed of 55-60 miles per hour or about 48 km per liter during the first test. With the volume of daily traffic," Henderson said after ending his journey.

 Mazda has revealed the first glimpse of its new cool car design called Shinari. Mazda wheeled out the 4 door coupe show car at a design event in Milan, but official 'studio' renderings and outdoor shots of the car have also leaked out onto the web as pictured below.


 







The Shinari's key styling cues include a prominent, gaping-mouth grille that does away with Nagare's 'smiling face', ultra-slim headlights and an Aston Martin-esque side vent just behind the front wheels. Inside, the concept is a strict 4 seater.


The future of the Shinari concept isn't clear at the moment. It could be a close preview of the next-generation Mazda 6, test mules of which were unveiled at last week's Mazda engineering showcase. Alternatively, a modified version of the Shinari could become an indirect successor to the RX-8, which has become a victim of Euro5 emissions regulations.
