One of the coolest cars that ever graced the big screen was the Eleanor Mustang from the 2000 Nicolas Cage flick Gone in 60 Seconds. That car was awesome.

The build starts off with either a 1967 or 1968 Mustang fastback.

Back in 2016, Genovation Cars electrified a Corvette C6 which they used to set a speed record of an incredible 209 mph. Now, it turns out the company is headed to CES 2018 with a pre-production performance EV called the GXE.

During the recent SEMA 2017 show, Hennessey Performance announced an epic new truck – the $349,000 VelociRaptor 6×6. This truck is a heavily modified version of the new Ford F-150 Raptor.

Have you always wanted to ride around town in the Batmobile? Well, if your last name is Wayne, and you’ve got 200 grand lying around, this one is ready to roll out of your personal Batcave.

If there’s one thing you can count on at the SEMA show each year, it’s lots of amazing custom automotive builds, not just from small shops, but in the booths of major automotive manufacturers.
