You can thank the people of Porcubimmer Motors for creating Homer Simpson's car 'The Homer.'

The Homer is a car designed for the average man, but I don't think this particular recreation of The Homer adheres to that same principle. The car's design is similar to Homer's original construct. Just like The Homer, the recreated cartoon vehicle has a bubble dome where kids can be placed and has horns that play the song "La Cucaracha." The re-imagined car also has giant cup holder by the driver's seat, but unlike The Homer, the construction of this car probably didn't cost $82,000.

Fans of the series will surely appreciate a Simpsons homage of this caliber. Imagine driving this car around at the Springfield theme park in this!
