With an affordable price, top design and level of finishing, perhaps the title of fashion accessory can also belong to a car. In the following, we present you the latest candidate.
For most people, private jets such as the Gulfstream G650, a $65 million steel bird, or the Bombardier Global Series are the definition of aviation luxury. But there are a handful of people who can afford even more. In order to meet such demands, both Airbus and Boeing have begun to build prestigious VIP versions of their passenger planes. They are mostly conversions of smaller models, but even luxury has its excess - Boeing 747-8 VIP.
Ford has boldly "treated" its SUV SVT Raptor. Apparently, he thinks that 411 horsepower wasn't enough for some, so he upgraded it to a Shelby Baja 700.

None but Ultime Evolution.

Lanesplitter is Mark Wilson's futuristic car that can split into two motorcycles. If you are tempted by the comfort and above all the safety of a car, but at the same time long for the agility of a motorcycle, this vehicle, which is once a car and secondly a pair of ``Tron'' motorcycles, is the right choice.

Why the one and only? Because the Fiat 550 Italia prototype with the Ferrari F136FB V8 engine will only be built. The reworked Fiat 500 was signed by Lazzarini design, which moved the engine to the rear end, and the monstrous machine gave space to the entire rear part of the car, including the rear seat bench. Compared to the serial model, the wheelbase has been stretched to 2,650 millimeters instead of 2,300, and of course everything else on and inside it testifies to the fact that it is not a normal model.
