Hot Wheels has collaborated with art collective MSCHF on a “Not Wheels’ car, a thoroughly broke-down 90s ride featuring missing wheels, mismatching body panels, and a whole lotta rust.

The car is charmingly worn out in a way any car (or toy car) lover will appreciate, and is the perfect addition to a Hot Wheels collection. The limited edition collector’s item drops this August 30th for $30.

 

“In an homage to the beat-up but reliable car that many drivers start off with, we partnered with art and media company MSCHF to create a “Not Wheels” vehicle.

Inspired by early 1990s Japanese imports, it has three different wheels (two Real Riders classic tires, one yellow spare tire, and a rusted wheel hub) but tons of personality.

Thoroughly dented, rusted, and amateurly repaired, our Not Wheels car proudly shows off both how hard it’s been driven and how much it’s been loved. “
