German Police: Flintstones Car Not Roadworthy

July 5, 2012 by noemi

German Flintstones Car — Flintstones Car

I am not sure if the children of this generation are still exposed to the antics of the most beloved Stone Age family (of our generation, at least), but I have no doubt that if a child were to be introduced to the Flintstones today, the allure of the cartoons will be just as strong.

How can one not fall in love with those Stone Age characters and all their quirks? How can one NOT want the foot mobile?

And speaking of this iconic mode of transportation, Stone Age it may be, it still has its admirers in modern days.

Enter Sebastian Trager. [Read more…] about German Police: Flintstones Car Not Roadworthy

Custom cars — Jet-powered Volkswagen Beetle

The Volkswagen Beetle has taken its place in the list of cars that will be forever loved and treasured, maybe not by everyone, but by a solid group of followers. Also known as the Volkswagon Bug or the Volkswagen Type 1, this car is the “longest-running and most-manufactured automobile of a single design platform anywhere in the world”. ((Wikipedia)) Anyone who has traveled a little will attest to the fact that practically anywhere in the world you go, you will see at least one Volkswagen Beetle, probably more. There is no denying that this cute little car has an appeal like no other, in spite of how old the design is. Enthusiasts even go to great lengths to restore old Beetles and bring them back to their old glory. [Read more…]

Ferrari Coffee Table

November 21, 2011 by noemi

I dream of one day driving a Ferrari. Or even just ride in one. While I am at it, I might as well dream of owning one – until something pulls me back to reality.

That is why looking at this Ferrari coffee table pains me. It is the work of industrial/interior/graphic designer Charly Molinelli, who seems to pride in his work.

Justin Bieber’s Batmobile

November 1, 2011 by noemi

The Batmobile has got to be one of the coolest cars in history. If you ask the right people, they will probably say that it IS the coolest car. It is rather difficult to argue with that, but this new customized version of the Batmobile just gives me the creeps. Enough creeps to last me till next Halloween, perhaps.

No, it is not the car itself that creeps me out. It’s the car’s owner posing with the cool custom car.

September 15, 2011 by noemi

How much would you pay for a car? Not just any car, mind you, a super car that you would not want to drive on the road every day. Lamborghini has long been a major player in the auto world, but they might just have been given a run for their money by model car maker Robert Gülpen. ((Source)) [Read more…]
