#1 The KISS Bug

Custom-built for a radio station promotion, the KISS Beetle turns heads wherever it goes. It won't blow anyone away down the straightaway, but it also won't be hard to find in a parking lot.

#2 Velvet Covered Car Wrap

This carpeted BMW brings a whole new meaning to the term pimp my ride!! Hope it doesn't get wet much.

#3 Sponge Dodge

To do this to a Dodge Charger should be a criminal offence, don't you agree?

#4 Crystal-Encrusted Mercedes

All that glitters is not gold - in this case, it's the 300,000-plus Swarovski crystals adorning this Mercedes SL600. A legitimate excuse to wear sunglasses at night.

#6 The Melon Mobile

No seeds in this melon but maybe a few embarrassed passengers. Pained like a watermelon on the outside, and inside it's ALL RED with black fixtures. Pretty Delicious!

#7 Monstrosity Mobile

Think 'The Munsters' in 2016. This crazy custom car looks like a transformer struggling to transform. Maybe Marilyn Munster would even enjoy a ride out on the town in this super cool ride!

#8 Compact Craziness

When his wife asked for a short ride this wasn't what she had in mind!! Why didn't he just buy a Smart Car?

#9 Hot Wheels Darth Vader Car

Yes, it's obviously a marketing gimmick - it even has a Hot Wheels badge on the side - but when marketers decide to have fun instead of eroding our souls, good things can happen. Based on the C5 Corvette, the Darth Vader car is actually road-worthy, so the Sith Lord can chase down rebel scum with a top speed near 150 mph. Better still, the lightsabers along the sides light up red, and the car can make Star Wars noises, like Vader's breathing or the lightsaber turning on. The car has freaking lightsabers.

#10 Wooden Ferrari F50

Italian artist Livio De Marchi has made many incredible works in wood, his medium of choice, but few can rival his wooden Ferrari. Built from 2,000 pounds of pine, De Marchi spent five months constructing his answer to traffic on the canals of Venice. I want this car!!!

#11 The Soft Ride

Made entirely out of cloth, leather, and household items, this disastrous gem cost over $122,000 to convert. Really? Is that a sofa attached to the back of this ride?? And I guess that giant spoiler is to keep you dry if it rains.

#12 Exhausting

Somebody should tell the owner of this old Mercedes that adding more exhausts won't make the car go any faster. But on the bright side - It's A Mercedes!

#13 The Curve

Is it a boat or a car? Made for surfing? Is there actually any benefit to all this craziness? Maybe you could put a scooter on that front end.

#14 Spoiler Alert

Beware Of Low Bridges!! The owner of this crazy tuned up car seems to think bigger is better.

#15 Tracked Hummer

There are a lot of words for a Hummer on tracks: unnecessary, obtrusive, wasteful, ostentatious, and conspicuous come to mind. But also: mighty, awesome, terrifying, and ridiculous. Unveiled at the 2008 SEMA show, this modified H2T features a rear spare tire for some reason.
