For anyone who spent the mid-90s sideways in SEGA Rally Championship, the sight of a white Celica in Castrol colors still lands with force. Real GT-Fours from that era are scarce and expensive. Yet one of the factory WRC Edition cars, finished in the exact livery that defined the game and the World Rally Championship, is sitting on eBay in the UK for under £24,000.

Mitchell Button of Button Built took a 1996 Ferrari F355 and refused to leave any part of it alone. The result appeared at the 2019 SEMA Show and has spent the years since turning up at shops, retail spaces, and museums. Now the car crosses the block at Barrett-Jackson’s Las Vegas auction in mid-September with no reserve.

Chinese digital artist Ajax, known online as jaxwang3, has put forward a hypothetical Bugatti concept that reworks the brand’s visual language in ways few have tried. Shared through Car Design World, the Bugatti Alien keeps enough signature elements to read as a Bugatti while introducing shapes and surfaces that feel new.
Mars, also known as Maria, lives full-time in Betty, a 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 170-inch 4×4 she built herself after leaving Crete. She wanted the interior to recall the stone-and-plaster houses of her home island, so she coated the walls and ceiling in Roman clay. The finish stays slightly uneven and tactile on purpose. Black laminate cabinets, wood-look vinyl plank floors, and a painted faux-stone backsplash complete the look. She mixed drywall putty into the plastic panels’ joints so the “stone” would feel built rather than stuck on.
John Staluppi has named every yacht he has owned after a James Bond film since childhood. His nineteenth will carry the shortest title yet. Project Bond measures 82 meters, or 269 feet, and will become both his largest boat and the biggest yacht Bilgin Yachts has built. Sold in March 2026 at the Palm Beach International Boat Show, the project is already well into steel and aluminum construction at the Turkish yard, with delivery expected in 2029.
