The words “Automotive porn” are more of a misnomer for this dual engine hot rod its creator has lovingly named “Priapism.” On display at SEMA, the hotrod has two engines to draw power from, and is completely street legal. Though it hasn’t actually had a run yet, its creators say it could command 900-950 hp. With the mighty engines up front, the hotrod will likely have many enthusiasts lust for it. And be simultaneously attracted to and repelled by the Priapism.
The Toyota Tacom ATG (All Terrain Gamer) on display at SEMA, takes HALO ODST to entirely unnecessary levels with a Warthog makeover, four Xbox Elite consoles, four 24-inch LCD displays, and chopped-off B-pillars for those giant gullwings. These extra-large gullwings actually serve as a shelter for gamers, which come in handy considering this Warthog Tacoma ATG was built to let owners enjoy their favorite games in “remote locations.”
If this bike could add and remove the attached T-50 jet turbine at will, it would probably be a Clark Kent-Superman story or even a Peter Parker-Spiderman story. But it wouldn’t be a Bruce Wayne-Batman story because Batman is a huge pile of awesome. Anyways, this 1982 Honda Magna had a Boeing T-50 jet turbine strapped onto it, and became a powerhouse.

Space tourism is catching on, and that’s no wonder considering humanity’s love and curiosity for the vast expanse of the universe. Plus, the Galactic Suites will probably be a nice place for spaceships from the Space Port to dock at. And of course, it won’t be like a visit to any of the other hotels, those staying will have to wear Velcro-covered clothes. Each pod will have room for four people, and there will be two astronauts in the attached rocket.
CR&S Motorcycles have unveiled their new motorcycle, the DUU. That name is Milanese dialect for “two” and is an indicator to the motorcycle’s European and American connection. The idea is to merge European styling with American power, so the motorcycle will have a sleek European design and will get its power from a 2.0-liter V-twin engine. DUU will be available as a two-seater premium motorcycle and will be sold in very limited numbers. Check out the picture gallery for more images of the striking motorcycle.

The Dodge Viper logo was designed to look formidable, and not at all like a duck, or worse, Daffy Duck.

Checkout the thread on Reddit, and here are a few more images to mark out the resemblance.
