Cross a Corvette and wienie and what do you get? A Covini! To Corvette lovers, this is a blasphemous car design, but alas, it is not a Photoshop creation: it's real.

Trend Hunter first reported the concept for this [six-wheel supercar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supersport) back in 2006, but it's now officially being built. The first [433 horsepower](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/koenigsegg-sadairs-spear) C6W will roll out in late 2009 and get up to its 185 mph top speed quickly.

**Implications** - Consider me impressed. THe C6W has made it cool to ride around on six wheels. Not only does a concept like this buck tradition and convention, it gives true gear heads the kind of innovation that is sorely lacking in the [automobile industry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prestige-imports). Now, excuse me while I figure out a way to test drive one of these...
