Nightmare scenario: You just overestimated your insane drifting skills and sent your precious Mercedes-Benz flying off a mountain. It's totaled, but you can't bear the thought of living without it. Fortunately for you, modern science has evolved to the point where you can turn your car into a leather jacket you can wear! ON YOUR BODY!
A clothier calling themselves Platinum Dirt lets you buy a leather jacket that has been "recovered" from an actual car, including the VIN plate on the breast and a zipper pull made from the hood ornament. They have ones from Lincoln, Cadillac, Mercedes, BMW and Volvo on display.
The price is absurdly steep at $1,690, but if you can't bear to part with you car, maybe it's a viable option.
I need to add that like 80 to 90 percent of all leather jackets, these are extremely douchey, and the fact that they're made from a car means you will almost certainly never get laid in one. Ever. Having said that, I still kind of want one, especially if it keeps the heated seat function. That would be kind of nice in the winter.
Hat tip to Milos!
