Holy cow is that ... weird ... and kinda cool.

It looks like a VW Bug, but that's too easy, I know.  It makes me think of a Bugorsche ... a cross between a VW Bug and a Porsche.......or something like that....

I guess they're going for a 911 look on a Beetle - the question is, who made it and what did they call it?
