The dream of owning a Lamborghini is one held by many a petrolhead, but only a small fraction of such enthusiasts have the financial bona fides to make that dream a reality. What do folks do if they still really, really want to rock a Lambo? Many buy a kit to rebody a Fiero or some other cheap platform to create a car with the looks (if not the proportions or performance) of the real McCoy. Others build their Raging Bull tributes from the ground up. Ken Imhoff belongs to this latter group, and so does Chen Jenmiao.

Chen, a 25-year-old mechanic from Chenzhou City, China, apparently decided if he couldn’t buy his dream car, he’d build it, or at least something that resembles it. So with roughly $3,000 worth of material and fabrication skills in hand, he set to work. How did it turn out? Well…have a look for yourself after the jump.

The hybrid vehicle has generated a frenzy of consumers in favor of a more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly method of transportation. This type of car is comprised of some of the most advanced transportation technologies manufactured for the average consumer. BYD, “Build You Dreams”, is a Chinese battery manufacturer, which has been on the leading edge of technology for hybrid-electric cars since 1995. Recent innovative technologies within BYD Auto have led to a safer and more efficient Iron-Phosphate Battery. The Fe-Battery and BYD may perhaps shortly answer the question, “How soon will we be driving electric vehicles?”
