Behold the Faraday Future FF-91 – a 1050bhp, an all-wheel drive electric SUV/sedan with a 600km range that will accelerate to 100km/h in 2.4 seconds.

The luxury electroyacht has 3D lidar headlights, an autonomous sensor system including 13 radars and ultrasonic detectors, facial recognition entry and ‘mood sensing’ cameras inside that adjust music, temperature, scent (yes, scent), massage and more to suit your, eh, vibe.

Production begins early next year.

Behold: the progenitor of the iconic Porsche 911.

This 1964 Porsche 901 Cabriolet prototype is the only drop-top version of 13 pre-production vehicles made and one of only two still in existence. This very chassis was used as a working model for the 1967 Porsche 911 Targa.

A uniquely rare piece of automotive history and yours for €900,000, at the very least.

Using spray paint and stencils, Spanish street artist Javier de Riba decorates the floors of abandoned buildings (and occasionally streets and pavements) with tiled patterns based on the traditional Catalan tile designs of the houses he grew up in.

The video shows the progression of a work he was invited to create at the abandoned 5-star Monte Palace hotel in Sete Cidades at São Miguel in the Azores.

De Riba also sells his tile designs as prints.

Behold: the Aviatore Veloce Turbojet 100 coffee maker – a sculptural, aviation-grade aluminium alloy, stainless steel and bronze, single serving, high pressure brewing system that’s apparently very easy to operate despite its daunting appearance.

It’s also something of a collector’s item as only 100 will be made. Price on application.
