This car looks like a nicely restored, slightly modified Bug. Up close, the enormous side vents, 18-inch wheels and Porsche dashboard hint at the secret. This hybrid has custom fenders to properly cover its wider track and wheels, and rides on a fully-adjustable suspension. The car was created by Siegfried Rudolf, an Austrian that restores and customizes Porsche and Volkswagen cars. Rudolf got the idea after parking his restored Beetle next to his wife's Porsche Boxster and noted a striking similarity in their wheelbases. After countless hours with a measuring tape, a Sawzall and a welder, Rudolf had the Bugster, a mid-engined 270-horsepower 1973 VW Beetle. Check out the photos.
