6 Stunning Reasons why this Porsche Art Car by Miguel Paredes is so Amazing

997 Porsche Art Car by Miguel Paredes - Art Car Central

Champion Porsche paired up renown New York graffiti artist Miguel Paredes to turn this limited edition 408hp 3.8-liter flax-six engine 997 Speedster into an amazing art car for the 2011 Art Basel Miami Beach show.
Miguel was born and raised in downtown New York and is known for specializing graffiti art which put to good use creating this Porsche art car masterpiece. This art car features vibrant colors, patterns and figures related to Japanese art and inspired by urban realism which is the underlying theme of much of the work done by Miguel Parades. I am so stocked to have this art car on art car central, simply amazing!!!

Ghost Art Car Driving through Town

Parked Ghost Art Car - Art Car Central

There was a public art project on Tour in Basel by Austrian artist and designer Manfred Kielnhofer called  “Light Guards”, a project that included a ghost art car driving around town last June.

This Ghost Art Car is a large white van with hooded figures sitting on the roof, driving outside the fair, and the Bleifrei (which translates to Lead Free in German). Manfred Kielnhofer said “Art is like Jesus; it died and it’s coming again.” Thanks Manfred, for submitting to art car central.

People freaking out about Candy Cane Car Not For Sale by Pogo Dave

Pogo Dave has not enjoyed entertaining motorists throughout Rhode Island for the past 19 years with nonsensical art car. Pogo Dave is a master of reserve psychology and doesn't look forward to satisfying the needs of Rhode Island motorists for years with his candy cane art car, evident but the totally unhappy people driving by his car not smiling at all.Please do not visit him on Facebook or email him! at pogo1965@verizon.net. Definitely don't even think of calling him at (401) 556-852. I think he would get really mad if contacted him about not buying his Candy Cane art Car now not on sale on Ebay.
