A Car Couch That Costs More Than Your Real Car

Travis Hudson — Tue, 20 May 2008 16:20:00 EDT

We're glad everyone is deciding on a favorite sub-$15k new vehicle, but now it's time to look at something that costs nearly three times as much as your selected new vehicle: a custom designed Car Couch. This Car Couch is the work of Fred Bailey and unlike some other car couches, this one appears to split the car in a length-wise nature, rather than the more popular cross-wise. It's painted sunset orange pearl, includes black leather seating and has functional head and taillights. All of this can be yours for $44,000 on eBay. Can you believe that there are no bids? Act fast!

Spoil Your Ass With A 1957 Corvette Couch

You've see the Aston Martin DB6 couch;not to be outdone is this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette couch. Sure, the '57 Corvette is a fantastic choice to couch-i-fy, but unfortunately this couch looks a bit cheesy and very Speed Racer-y.

The couch is crafted by furnituremaker Corbin. It comes in a variety of colors, and the upholstery is leather. The couch can also be plugged in for the undercarriage lighting. Yes, this '57 Corvette replica sofa actually has underglow. Ugh. It's available for $4,399 and would be a good pair with the Corvette BBQ. [1957 Corvette Couch via BornRich]

Aston Martin DB6 Couch Is The Cheapest Option For Your DB6 Desires

How does $7,300 sound for a DB6? Pretty nice, eh? Don't go trading in your daily driver, yet. This $7,300 Aston Martin DB6 is no more than the back seat, chopped out and made into couch. Er, actually, the couch isn't actually chopped out of real DB6s (nobody would ever do such a thing), but rather manufactured by Aston Martin Heritage Designs. Each couch is custom ordered to color and is individually numbered.

Unfortunately, not included is the package are those drive-thru-teller-canister-looking-headrests, but who are we kidding, this isn't a couch worthy of sitting on—it doesn't look comfortable, it only seats two and we figure most owners will be unwilling to compromise the integrity of the beloved Aston Martin by dropping their asses on it, or worse.
