You see it almost every day on Discovery, being used by the engineer team from the Overhauled tv show, or simply on streets, so it couldn’t miss the chance of appearing at SEMA 2008. Of course, we are talking about a creation by Chip Foose, the man who came at the biggest event dedicated to the after-market products, with a Plymouth Barracuda.
The car, model 1970, was named “Terracuda” and is painted in what some consider to be the most beautiful brown in the world, a beautiful shade put in value. Developed together with the specialists from BASF, the paint is part of a new line of colors (and combinations of colors) that bears the name of Chip Foose.
However, Terracuda is not just a beautifully colored muscle-car, but one intensely modified, starting with the bodywork: Chip Foose sketched the design, and the ones from Art Carr made everything possible and build the car by the drawings of the passionate designer. Meanwhile, under the hood you can find a Mopar V8 of 6.4 liters.
Does this car belong to the Eskimo rapper Fitty Nanuk or we have here the first bling bling vehicle for traveling on the Moon?
At the both questions, the answer is the same: Nobody knows! Certainly, this model demonstrates why SEMA is one of the most nonconformist automobile events. But, seeing these pictures, some other questions popped in my head. I wonder, how would a burnout look like on this Crawler Hummer!
The new 370Z hasn’t even been launched yet, but it has already appeared in the version of the official tuner.
Nissan 370Z has been highly expected by fans, and from the first pictures reactions are positive. But because things can always be improved, Nissan Motorsport creates a tuned up version before the base model is released. Well, it’s also true that in theory this picture hasn’t been officially published.
Still, from what we can see, we’ll have a rear fender, a big diffuser and alloy wheels of considerable size. The technical side has also been tweaked, including the breaks, engine and suspension, but we’ll find out more once the model is officially launched.
In these difficult times faced by the automotive industry and auto dealers, each of them doing what think is best to attract customers, some choose to put at the showroom gate those huge inflatable mascots, others make serious discounts at their models.
An Audi representative from Miami chose the originality and convinced Romero Britto to paint a RS4, which has become such a masterpiece on wheels. Romero Britto is a Brazilian artist, painter and sculptor, which is famous in the United States.
