Classic Mini is Feeling Very Benzy…


The baby Aston Martin carriage that is the Cygnet mini may have found its long lost ancestor in the face of this classic Mini with a Mercedes-Benz W114/W115 snout - in case you don't remember, that's the codename of the E-Class saloon of the late-1960s, which was built through the mid-1970s).

Mad Max's Ford Falcon Coupe Pursuit Special Replica Could be Yours for AU$105k


Many things have changed over the 33 years that passed since George Miller's classic dystopian action flick Mad Max hit the big screen, but the blacked out Pursuit Special that served as Max Rockatansky's (played by Mel Gibson) police car remains as cool as ever.

The original Pursuit Special was a 1973 Ford Falcon XB GT, one of the most popular sports coupes in Australia at the time. A team led by Murray Smith modified the Aussie coupe into the beast that starred in the movie.

This Lamborghini Diablo Roadster Replica was Once a Proud Porsche Boxster


There's no doubt that the Boxster series has been a wild sales success for Porsche, and being in the market for three generations and more than 16 years, means that you can find many used examples at affordable prices.

Up until recent years, replica car builders looked at the Pontiac Fiero when it came to cloning mid-engined models, but it's getting harder and harder to find worthwhile vehicles on the market, be that because the last ones were manufactured back in 1988, or because most of them have already been transformed into other models.

Yema Auto's All-Electric and All-Audi Looking Mustang F16 Enters Production


It's been a little over a year since China's Yema Auto dazzled us with its replication capabilities when it introduced a new breed of clone concepts at the Chengdu Auto Show 2011 with the T-SUV (call me VW Tiguan), E-SUV (Infiniti EX) and the F16 and E-Taxi twins (Audi A4 Avant).

In the time that passed since then, Yema Auto's engineers worked hard to finish the development of one of those models, the F16, that is now ready for a small-scale production in battery-powered form under its sub brand Mustang.

Another Mitsubishi 3000GT Dressed Up as a Ferrari Pops Up on eBay


Well, well, well, imagine that; a second Mitsubishi 3000GT coupe that has been converted to look like a Ferrari F430, though, we must say, we're having trouble seeing the resemblance.

Perhaps we're missing something here, but putting aside the air scoops positioned on top of the rear fenders and to some extent, the door mirrors, the rest of the cosmetic enhancements don't remind us of the F430.

For Sale: A Ford Escort-Based Tribute to the 1966 Batmobile, Atomic Batteries Not Included


The original 1966 Batmobile, built on the 1955 Lincoln Futura Concept by George Barris for the campy television series from the same decade, will go on sale next January at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, but we all know that unless you're a 1 percenter, you probably can't afford it.

Of course, there are plenty of alternatives in the form of accurate replicas like this one from Fiberglass Freaks that we had the opportunity to ride back in 2010, but it will still cost you somewhere around $150,000.

Holy Flabbergast! German Batmobile Begs for a Bat…Repellent


Not all Batmobiles are made equal and this principle surely applies to the Bat car listed for sale on the German version of eBay.

The pictures of the DIY Batmobile more or less speak for themselves with the seller adding that a "very extravagant and futuristic artist and designer" built the strange looking contraption, and that it has won "several trophies at events".
