There are only a few countries known for building cars. Most of them are in Europe or the Far East. Colonel Muammar Gaddafi wants to add Libya to that list, and this is what hes cooked up to do it. Called the Libyan Rocket, the car was designed to solve the problem of high instance of road deaths in the north African country. Gaddafi's people say its the safest car ever made, but don't go into any details to back up the claim. Still, the Colonels revolutionary government is building a plant in Tripoli to put it together. Gaddafi's car seats five, has a 230-hp V6 and the nose and tail of a rocket. The Libyan Rocket does come with airbags, an electronic defense system and collapsible bumpers that supposedly help out in a crash. So what is the electronic defense system..Apparently, nobody knows what it is or how it works. So even the secret is safe with this car! You may want to add some diamond studded rims complete with their own bodyguard if you want to make this car even safer.

This is funny! I like the Libyan Jamhuriya eagle at the front.
Well, if you've got the money to play with, it cant be that difficult to design a car. Its probably a Fiat or Peugeot engine underneath.
Wish I had the money...would design my own 'Rocket'!

Very timely to post to new pictures on Gadaffi's rocket car! His sons apparently spend millions of dollars for short live performances of Usher, Mariah Carey and Nelly Furtado at their private parties. So, splashing a few million to design a car is not that extravagant in comparison.
