How do you wrap a Peugeot RCZ in velvet? We suppose that's actually the wrong question to ask. The right one being "Why would you wrap a Peugeot in velvet?"
Velvet used to be a fabric reserved for nobility due to the tidious nature of its fabrication. It was introduced in the middle east during the early 9th century and only later adopted by the Europeans. Nowadays though, people even put it on their cars.

A black velvet Ferrari famously paraded around London, causing a stir on the internet. Since then, these crazy customization projects have become ever more popular. This one targets the Peugeot RCZ coupe with the same black fuzzy fabric.

A company called Velvet Cars has created the Velvet Elite Wrap 9100 film specifically to apply to cars. It is coated with special adhesives and durable textile fibers to withstand severe weather conditions. The only problem is the Peugeot sort of looks like a black rat now. It's not a flattering look.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
