Wooden Supercar zooms in at $32,000

Now this is one vehicle that I certainly wouldn’t want to be caught sitting in during an accident. We all know just how much love fire has for wood, and I certainly don’t want to end up being immolated before knocking on heaven’s doors. Made from wood by a Japanese furniture maker, this Wooden Supercar can hit a top speed of 80km/h. You’ll have to fork out approximately $32,000 for this highly flammable ride.
