Cash for Cupcakes

Ok, so if you haven't read my previous post on the "Big Top Cupcake," you should read it before you read this. Maybe that item won't seem as crazy after you've seen this (My thanks again to bestweekever.tv!).

Ladies and Gentlemen, I introduce to you the
$25,000 cupcake car!!
[THIS IS A REAL THING]

Straight from the NEIMAN-MARCUS CATALOG:

The Neiman Marcus provided description reads like bakery fan fiction. Slip this on and take a read:

Put on your matching hat, slip under the muffin top of your Cupcake Car, and let the world figure itself out for awhile. Get (or give) the sheer, joyful chaos of a gift that is mind-blowing, triple-dog-dare, double-infinity forever cool. Make the kids or grandkids literally squeal with joy. Bring it to work and buzz the breakroom. Crash parades! Putter about the ‘hood. Ever had a crowd of kids chasing after you just for the crazy gleeful heck of it? (No worries, the top speed is a comfy-safe 7 mph.) What’s it made of? A 24-volt electric motor, a heavy-duty battery, sheet metal, wire, fabric, wood…and mad genius. Launched at Burning ManSM as a cooperative art car project, the Cupcake Car sprang from the fevered mind of Bay Area artist Lisa Pongrace and her less-rules-more-laughs posse of artists and techno geeks. Yours will be tricked out with your favorite topping, so start thinking flavors.

Mine will be flavored like money with a faint hint of “What college loans?”

Good thing I saw this before I made my Christmas list. I was just going to ask for every single item in the Sky Mall catalog. But this? This is WAY better.
