Here's another rare oddity found for sale on eBay Motors. The long-nose Zimmer Quicksilver is a custom made coupe with a mid-mounted V6 engine. And yes, as you may have already guessed, it's based on GM's Pontiac Fiero. The car's retro styling takes its inspiration from glitzy Lincoln and Cadillac models of the 1970s.
Found for sale on eBay is this flamboyantly unique Audi S5 Coupe featuring a killer color combination that makes it stand out like a lime in a bowl of lemons. And this ain't no vinyl wrap; the "Porsche Lime Green" exterior finish was a special factory order that cost the owner $2,500. Open the door and you'll see why most manufacturers don't allow customers to combine certain exterior shades with certain interior colors even if they are available. More photos after the break.
In the glory days of air travel � when you could still smoke and fly without the fear of being groped and fondled by security personnel wearing latex gloves� some passengers were lucky enough to commute from the terminal to their hotel in the back of an airport limousine. These stretched cars, with their multiple rows of seats and doors, were essentially the primitive precursor to the modern day shuttle bus.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. Of all the cars I�ve featured in �It Came From eBay Hell�, this one takes the cake. It�s a 2002 Mercury Cougar with 120,000 miles (193,120 kilometres) on the clock, though that�s not what makes it special. No, what makes it special is the composite and fibreglass Bugatti Veyron body draped over it. 
That�s right: it�s a Cougatti Vercuryon! Not only does this modern masterpiece come with (Walmart� Brand) 20-inch rims, two-tone paint and leather everything, it also comes with all the stuff that made the Mercury Cougar the modern classic it is today
Much like Christine in the Stephen King novel of the same name, this 1957 Triumph TR3 Special began life as nothing more than a�car. Since then it�s mutated into this thing that sports a faux-Ferrari body and a Chevy 350 V8 under the hood.
Even if you somehow blocked these images from your screen, the name �Galaxy Warrior� alone is a sign that something ain�t gonna be right with this tune. Found for sale on the German edition of eBay, the �Galaxy Warrior� is a styling package for the Lamborghini Gallardo coupe from a company called ATS Automotive.
If a Fiero-based Ferrari replica is a �Fierrari�, then I figure its Lamborghini equivalent must be a �Lambieroghini�. Here�s one such monstrosity for sale on eBay, though on closer inspection there�s a lot to like about it. 
For one, though it�s incomplete, much of the grunt work has already been done. The unpainted fibreglass body that replicates the Diablo VT 6.0's styling has been mated to the tubular steel frame and the gas door struts, power window motors and headlights have all been installed.Also, the brake rotors are from a Corvette and the wheels are genuine 2004 Lamborghini Murci�lago 18-inch stock clad in Pirelli P-Zero rubber.
