Up until 20 minutes ago, if you would have asked us what the coolest car we'd seen all day was, we would have answered, "The 650 hp mid-engined GTI Davey G did a post about." However, reader Ed D has has changed all that. Behold! The ultimate sleeper, well, ever. Yes, they took one of our very favorite cars (that, by the way, will probably be showing up in the Fantasy Garage) and quite literally stretched a Mk1 Golf's body around it. All the glass is custom and we would imagine it (maybe) weighs a little less than the Porsche. That's all we know. And really, all we need to know. One more great pic after the jump. – Jonny Lieberman

I saw this a few years ago. What an amazing bit of engineering! They had to cut two golfs in half (well slightly more than half) to make this happen.

ultimate body chop, that is crazy. I wnt one
Is it built on a porsche frame, and the body stretched to fit?

i agree. there's a lot more you could put in a golf without cutting it in half and making it look like an optical illusion. but it is a crazy idea though, definitely unique

wider is gayer.

why not make a 7-door out of two Golfs like the Mirth-limo from Waynes World II

*edit* couldn't find a pic of the Mirthmobilelimo from the movie...but this trumps it I think:
