Smart Cars are by no means the coolest cars in the world but with these cool body kits fitted - they get real close! It looks like these kits are manufactured by Adobe Ferrari, Adobe Lamborghini and Adobe Porsche...but very cool all the same!
Check out this cool BMW car grave headstone, complete with personalised number plate.
The shiny black car at father-of-two Steve Marsh’s grave even features a parking ticket on the windscreen. The 51-year-old, who died in his sleep, had travelled to his final resting place in the back of a red pick-up truck.

‘It does look rather magnificent,’ said a spokesman for the cemetery, near Mr Marsh’s home in Forest Gate, east London. ‘It is one of the most unusual memorials we have here.’
Introducing a cool car called the skip car. A skip that can go 0 to 60 in 5.3 seconds...not bad!!! Cool Skip Car Video
WITH a £20,000 price tag and top speed of nearly 150mph, this is a skip with a difference. In fact, the Skipcar, which was developed by Newport waste disposal company GD Environmental Services, is the fastest on earth after setting the first ever landspeed time for a skip. The skipcar was built from a high-powered Subaru Impreza WRX Type R, and its vital statistics read like the most impressive top trump card in the pack. A top speed of 147mph, 300 break horse power, 0- 60mph in 5.3 seconds and the handling of a rally car are enough to get most motoring enthusiasts excited. And owner and driver James Norvill is celebrating after the four-wheel drive speed machine entered the record books on the weekend when it clocked 93mph on a 400m drag circuit in front of thousands of spectators. GD Environmental managing director Mr Norvill, who took the wheel at the Flame and Thunder event at the Northampton-based Santa Pod circuit on Saturday, said he hoped the record was the first of many to come.
"It is great fun to drive and a great way to publicise the business. We've basically stripped a Subaru Impreza and used it with a standard eight-yard skip to create the skipcar. "Hopefully we can try and go a bit faster in the future. Maybe we will fit some nitrous oxide to the back of it," he added. The two-seater car was created in a month by a team of mechanics at a price of £20,000 after Mr Norvill purchased a second-hand Impreza. It weighs 1.1 tonnes and is made of lightweight lower gauge steel. The company has a fleet of hundreds of skips, worth around £500 each, and provides waste management and drainage services to businesses around the UK.
