Unlikely vehicles

[speedfreak69]

Unfortunately this seems to be the vehicle of choice of many online racers.

And here's one of Ed Roth's creations which doesn't seem to fit within any existing category....

haha well played sir!

...and the other pic, I don't even... ...but I'm naming it Ridiculomobil!

Sorry if it's been posted before.

NOT a Ford F3L.

NOT an Engine and chassis from a Cosworth F1 car.

Ford F3L.
Engine and chassis are from a Cosworth F1 car.

Very nice car which i would love to see included in GT5, but this is not the thread for posting cars or bikes which could be included in GT or TT.
Please when posting suggestions, and this is for everyone, read the first post or even other entries to find out what topic a thread is about.

THIS IS NOT A NORMAL CAR WISHLIST!!!!

So please replace that picture by something more suitable, thank you.

That car could be added ( if it is not already ) to the existing racecar wishlist.

( Edit, thanks Cale for changing the picture for something more suitable )

Some people don't get it. This is Gran Weirdismo!

Take your pick!

Thanks for pointing it out again ( Gran Weirdismo 👍), and that must be the coolest BBQ i've ever seen.

Although weird is not the only option ofcourse, just different categories of vehicles you would like to see appear, normal or even far fetched ones like this Landstorm concept.

Or something beautiful and relatively normal like this classic Ecurie Ecosse racecar transporter ( different by categorie ).

Has quite the variety of odd vehicles, many of which fit the criteria of this thread, and almost all of which are interesting to read about. Some other people's posts (like the bionic dolphin) are on that page, but now you can read about them!

Enjoy.

Something is missing here, this:

 

[Heath_1]

I really wanna post something I saw but the AUP Specifies I cannot. It's like that high heel thing up the page but instead its not a shoe, but a vagina . Differs by category I think.

 

[analog]

Something is missing here, this:

Here's the real life Homer Mobile ( at least it looks quite similar ), the Cadillac Tag by Franco Sbarro.

And here's one from my country, the Daf Twin Turbo 2, a 1200+Hp twin-engined Dakar-winner with an aluminium space frame and a top speed of more than 200 km/h.

 

[finnracer]

You could shmoke the opposition with that DAF!!!

 

[SgtWhitten]

The Pea car is my favourite!

 

[NoQuarter]

The Pea car is my favourite!

A ride with Ms. Pacman in the Pacmanmobile would be be fun...

 

[Jujubean]

Got another:

Lowly Worm, anyone?

 

[Heath_1]

I like that DAF truck thing so much. That's heaps cool.

 

[analog]

The Pea car is my favourite!

It reminded me ( and it appears to share some components, headlights, as well ) to another vehicle which could be on this list, the Volkswagen T2.

For those who love that Daf here's a short clip of it overtaking Ari Vatanen's Peugeot ( the winner ) on a straight section of desert during Dakar in '88 i believe.......

Invisible cars anyone? just imagine the driver floating around the track.

I'm afraid it only workes from that angle in exactly the same situation, if you're going to drive you might need something like this to be invisible, for radar only ( although obviously it is just a visual tribute to those Stealth planes ).

 

[speedfreak69]

Gyrocar racing.

 

[Terronium-12]

Dodge M4S - aka "The Wraith"

^ What's the name of that car? I need links, infos, galleries, etc.!!!!

-> That car is so damn cool! Worthy to be in my VWL!!! 👍

Terronium-12-> The Wraith is more of a 50/50 car, since its already on my VWL. It may have somewhat of a chance, but not highly unlikely.

BT-> Oh hai! Besides that Pea Car, I have another round car. Behold the Outspan Orange Car:

^ I think this car will seat more people compared to the Peel P50-sized Pea Car. Plus when you roll-over...you just keep on rolling like hollowed bowling ball.

 

[Terronium-12]

I'll find something more extreme then.

Thanks for the Gyrocar Speedfreak69, i've seen it before in an encyclopedia once, truly amazing ( although a bit pointless ) piece of engineering, here's some other oddities.

Official Citroen CX-based six-wheeled transporter for high-speed cargo delivery.

A more mainstream Citroen product, the great HY van ( apparantly the designer was inspired by a Junkers plane ).

Only those vehicles who differ by category are "allowed" in this thread, so this Ferrari 400i only is suitable because it is turned into a stretched limo.
Didn't know to laugh or cry when i first saw this one, but within the context of a stretched Ferrari it sort of looks well-executed ( apart from the whitewall tyres ) although i still prefer the original.

All we need now is an apple and banana car to make a nice little fruit bowl.

You all remember the Nike 2022, right?

Now, I give you the Reebok WTF...

It's a one-off creation by a guy named Jim Router, he's an engineer who worked for both Lotus and McLaren ( you could do worse ) and he made it for himself as some hobby project.
Don't know much about it, but just Google Jim Router and/or Stealth car.

 

[speedfreak69]

You mean high-speed multiple coffin delivery?

p.s. I'd rather cruise in the original.

SgtWhitten:

Bon Appetit!

analog-> Speaking of Citroën, I have a very unusual Citroën that I recalled from the archives of my VWL:

Citroën DS PLR 1000 Pattes Michelin rolling experimental prototype truck '72

analog-> By the way, can you PM me the infos on those Citroën's you contributed, I want to add them in VWL. Thanks!

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

^ I may like its 50/50 weight distribution, if its RWD.

^ Any more info?

 

[Terronium-12]

Nothing that I can find thus far.

The Vanishing Boy, i already posted that Citroen on one of the first pages , here's another Citroen "Monster", the double headed Cogolin.

And the car i'm using as avatar is lurking in the background..........
