As the official sponsor of the upcoming and annual street culture tome 'All Gone,' Smart Car has designed a new version of its brilliant vehicle inspired by the book set behind the event.

'All Gone: A Decade of Street Culture’s Finest,' is a book that captures all of the excitement within street culture. In line with the book's release and the street culture event, Ed Banger Records and La MJC held a launch party event in Paris at the [Hotel Grand Amour](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-maison-tifosi-nastro-azzurro-00). Though the event saw the likes of very important people and epic streetwear, the real highlight was the [limited-edition Smart Car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-paul-smith-edition) constructed to mirror the cover of the recently released book.

The automobile is decorated with the same [camouflage pattern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3000gt-vr4) seen on the cover of the book, which has been inspired by an aerial view of Paris.
