For those who are bored of endless queues of identity-free silver cars, we have put together 10 of the most amazing vehicle exteriors ever dreamed up. From unique colour themes to unforgettable designs, here are 10 exteriors which got the office talking.
10 – Lamborghini Aventador Prototype
In 2011, when Lamborghini were testing the prototype for their new flagship car – the Aventador – fans were treated to a stunning spectacle as the new model took to the Nardo speed track in Italy with a unique exterior design. Making a change from the traditional yellow colour that Lamborghini has long been associated with, the prototype raced around with a sketched black and white swirled exterior.
9 – Jeff Koons BMW
The BMW Art Car concept was first introduced by French racecar driver Herve Poulain who invited artists to use cars as art canvases. The latest in the series was the BMW M3 GT3 designed by American artist Jeff Koons in 2010. The design creates a multi-coloured time warp effect with vibrant lines travelling from the front of the car’s body to the back.

7 – National Geographic Shark Bus
National Geographic’s shark bus created a stir when it was first launched due to the back doors opening up to replicate a shark eating victims as they board and exit the bus.
6 – Chrome Mercedes
If you’re concerned your brand new Mercedes won’t turn heads when you drive it out of the showroom – finish it in chrome and you’ll be guaranteed to catch (and blind) the eyes of passers-by who pay you a glance.
5 – Camo Ferrari
If you’re concerned your brand new Mercedes won’t turn heads when you drive it out of the showroom – finish it in chrome and you’ll be guaranteed to catch (and blind) the eyes of passers-by who pay you a glance.
4 – Matt Black Bentley
Simplistic and understated, the matt black Bentley is not as showy as many of the other entries on this list – but every bit as stunning. The single tone, flat design serves to accentuate the curves and the lines of the car.
3 – Andy Warhol BMW
The second BMW Art Car on this list – from perhaps the most famous contributor to the event. Andy Warhol’s BMW M1 Group 4 from 1979 retains the classic racing number in an off-kilter design which looks as though it has just been hand-painted.
2 – Copenhagen Zoo ‘Snake’ Bus
One of the most creative bus adverts we’ve ever seen – Copenhagen Zoo commissioned this bus designed which brought one of the zoo’s most dangerous inhabitants to life, to look as thought it’s crushing the bus with its body.
1 – Dubai Police Bugatti Veyron
British police are more than justified when enviously glancing at the cars of their Dubai counterparts. Rather than illuminous Astras, the Dubai police force enjoy enforcing the law in stylishly finished Bugatti Veyrons.
