Take a bite out of this, bitch. A mere $25,000 apiece! The very same cupcake art cars I zoomed around in for this Boing Boing TV episode are now offered for sale at upscale (and econopocalypse-beleaguered) retailer Neiman Marcus. Congrats to Lisa Pongrace and her fellow designers and builders bakers. Customized Cupcake Car (thanks, Susannah Breslin)

Looks like something that would be on an episode of Pushing Daisies.
I smell a Top Gear challenge.
@scifijazznik, that's funny -- I just smell buttercream exhaust fumes.
do they come with the hats, or do you have to buy those separately?
Excellent! I shall buy an even dozen and build a garage for them on my estate in the form of a giant bakery box, for I am both obscenely wealthy and afflicted by an unnatural desire to be inside of baked goods. This will allow me to realize my perversity in a socially acceptable manner, and draw my unsuspecting peers into it.

Don't get all excited about the cost. The insurance for these cost $15k.
