Splinter is a car made by Joe Harmon and he is planning to commercialise the car this year Splinter is completely made out of wood (even the motor) and is faster than the fastest Lamborghini. Here you can see the first screen of the car. http://www.theneworder.eu/?p=71

That car has a 4.6L V8 motor and you are trying to tell me it's faster then the fastest Lamborghini? You have to be kidding me or you just know nothing about cars (EDIT: Okay the site claims it not you), either way, nice car.

I'd like to see it in action though, I bet it is fast, cause it'd be so lite.

That's what the creator of the car is saying, not me...

vvBtw I wvas just thinking what would happe, with that car if it starts raining...

Um, they'd probably coat each of the pieces of wood to ensure a weather resistant material. and yeah, I can't read the language of the site, but I can recognize the term "Dreamcar"

The site doesn't give so much information, only that it is a sports car, that the car is extremeley light (not heavy) and fast and that the developer of this car wants to see it this year on the market.

The car will come with a lifetime supply of this.

U.S. design company has created the world's first wooden supercar, which would put both Porsche and Lamborghini in the shade with a staggering top speed of 240 mph...
