Russians have never been very creative when it comes to making great cars. All they have done is copy others. Most their production models and concepts have been a joke.
Okay sure there are few models that looked great and still do, such as the Tšaika that former Soviet Union big shots drove. Even that car was partly copied, not original work of russians.

Rickshaws are still used in China to transport people. It is not just a type of transportation. It is more of a symbol and tourists love them. Now MINI China has created a pedal-powered Rickshaw that has Mini Clubmans rear part of the body. Now that is some good advertising! People do talk about the Olympic games and they also talk about the Mini Clubman Rickshaws that have been spotted around Beijing.
According to China Car Times, the body of the Clubman is from Germany and the conversion to rickshaw was carried out in Hong Kong, and then the rickMINI was taken to Beijing to ‘bring good luck’ to the Beijing Olympics.

When I think of Volvo I think of something very practical. Now check out this custom XC70 pickup. It was built by a Swedish company called Dalbo Fordonsteknik.
It sure is not El Camino or Falcon not even a new Pontiac G8 pickup, but it sure has its own unique lines and thats what makes it interesting. Maybe Volvo should try something totally new and introduce a Volvo pickup? Or even a bigger pickup based on XC90?

Ebay motors does have lot of weird cars for sale, this so called Jerrari is definetely one of the weirdest I have seen in a long time. What is a Jerrari?
It is a custom JEEP. It has a 1969 Jeep Wagoneer body with a Ferrari 365 GT front end.
Story on the car is that car collector Bill Harrah wanted a custom four wheel Ferrari. For some reason Enzo Ferrari refused to do it(I think it makes sense). After that mr. Harrah combined a crashed Ferrari 365 GT front end with a 1969 Jeep Wagoner.

How many people do you know that have a Ferrari, a Mercedes, a Lamborghini, or a Corvette? My guess would be there is at least one of these in your neighborhood. Now how many Batmobiles are in your neighborhood. None, because there were a total of 5 of these cars made.
Here it is one of 5 cars that could have been in the “Batman” movie starring Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson. Five cars were built for the movie and this car is the number five car.

MARYVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Blount County’s newest police cruiser has been turning heads, but whether it could keep up in a high-speed chase seems unlikely.
Assistant Chief Deputy Archie Garner retrofitted a 1973 Volkswagen Beetle to add to the sheriff’s fleet of police interceptors, but with a top-end speed of about 70 mph, he’s not writing a lot of speeding tickets.

Here’s a fantastic Lambretta scooter modification for you: a scooter with a VW “Kombi” van sidecar! If there weren’t an actual person on the picture it would seem that is is just a toy. It sure puts on extra weight and will reduce the top speed and acceleration but with such a look it should not matter:)
