Roll Top Hyundai Veloster C3 Concept - LA Motor Show
Another fantastic concept to be released at the LA International Auto Show is another modification to the Hyundai Veloster.
This one features a bike with a very similar paint job proving that it can sit in the newly modified C3 roll top roof. The tailgate of the vehicle opens up and the roof does what it says on the tin, rolls up.
The name C3 comes from 'Convertible Three-Door', which is exactly what this is.
Hyundai say:
"In convertible mode with the top rolled back, the C3 is a free spirit for driving along the Pacific Coast Highway. Roll the top forward, open the tailgate, fold the rear seats and the C3 goes into recreation mode - perfect for surfing, biking or kayaking,"

Italian Police Lamborghini LP560-4 (VIDEO)
Owning a cool car is more of an image booster for local police, and at least every main police force have a car they like to show off. For Italy, it's the Lamborghini LP560-4. Apart from the speed, this car isn't essentially practical to the workforce, however... Stunning.
You have to admit, there's something magical about the car in a police uniform. Something that says 'get out of my way', especially fitted with the lights and what-not.
The driver was caught by YouTuber 'Marchettino', the track unknown. The video shows the LP560 being driven perfectly around the track, showing off a lot of driving skills and fast acceleration.
Unless any criminals are looking to go faster than 325 km/k, I can't see them getting away from this thing any time soon!

Maybe 'Going Green' isn't always the best idea.
This Australian resident may have taken the expression 'go green' a little too literally. He appears to have disguised his Mitsubishi Manga as some sort of living garden.
The car may not be a hybrid, electric, run off energy saving gas, but boy, is it green!
It's not easy being green!
