Introducing the most ridiculous car you’ve ever feasted your eyes on. We hardly even know how to describe it, but what you’re looking at is a Frankenstein Humvee that’s been converted into a six-wheeled monstrosity with parts that include a Dodge Hellcat V8 engine and Porsche Cayenne SUV subframes.
Offended yet? Well, you can blame Milwauke-based Danton Arts Kustoms USA and Frenchy Export for this thing. It’s the same mob that came up with an equally ludicrous Roll-Royce Phantom 6X6, which admittedly, looks tamer compared to this latest creation. Shockingly, they put this whole thing together in the span of just 10 weeks before Gas Monkey Garage posted it on Instagram and the rest is history.
It was recently sold at Barrett Jackson for $750,000 before auction fees were added ($825,000).

This one-of-a-kind custom build had its origins from a 2009 AM General Humvee body shell while the frame was rebuilt with specialist parts. The doors were chopped and the hunkered down stance is courtesy of the roof which saw a four-inch drop along with the body dropped by 10 inches. The front end has been knicked from a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 while it has two Porsche Cayenne sub-frames mashed in. Even the exhaust tips are from the Porsche while an aircraft wing has been bolted in too. Quite the recipe!
The interior also is not a subtle affair with a star-light roof, an LCD cluster and a skull-shaped gear shifter wearing an army helmet. It comes with nifty features such as a remote start as well.
Of course, we need to talk about those gigantic wheels and tyres which are 245/40/r20 at the front and 305/35/r24 at the rear. We are glad that the original Humvee engine was replaced by a feisty supercharged 6.2-litre Hellcat V8 engine which makes the sort of rumble that wakes up neighbourhoods.
Ultimately, it’s more amusing than your garden-variety hypercar and is a lot of metal for your money.
