It looks pretty good to me. I am not sure if this deserves to be here.

Saw this at a local garage. Shop name was: Fashion India, Oil India, Service India. The owner said that a customer wanted a vintage looking car so he made this. I was speechless. Just hope that God gives him some sense.

Looks like original car is Amby, which in its original shape would have had better vintage looks than this IMO.

May be they can use this in Cars 3

The owner has even tried an imitation of 'phantom' grille.

Spotted this car today while returning from the bhp meet in Kochi. This Innova was at the Hotel International today. I must say there was a mixed response from guys in my car.

Well he actually and very successfully made a window grill!

I really wonder, people have so much of money to spend around experimenting on how to lose your money in few days.

Rare pieces of art.

China's Year of the Snake starts on February 10, and Latvia's coolest automaker is jumping at the chance to make some money with a ride made for the Chinese elite.

The Black Snake from Dartz is a highly customized version of a Mercedes GL 63 AMG, packed with luxury features rarely seen in any kind of vehicle: leather made from ostrich and crocodile, a hood ornament covered in diamonds, exotic wood paneling, and more.

The Black Snake went on sale in China at the end of January 2013, for a whopping $1 million.

The front is spoilt IMO, But I kind of like the rear 3/4 view of this machine a good job indeed.

The rims have a unique color scheme & are well designed.

Btw , is that leather on the rims ? If yes gives a new meaning to getting new shoes for your car... Leather shoes

Just one word. HIDEOUS.

DC opened a branch in China?

On a more serious note, this is really ill-conceived.

MetalBuff · 2nd February 2013, 08:42

And this has a ticker price of a million $s ?

Yeah right! With so many attention hogging people around ready to shell out a fortune when it comes to buying something "exclusive", why not!!

From the gold painted Aventador to this !! But, this can only be some sub-standard "Chinese" DC
