You're about to geek out over 11 seconds of footage showing a teddy bear. Yeah, this is still autoevolution, and we haven't started a #justgirlthings section.
We don't know what to make of this contraption. It has a definite Japanese vibe about it, but considering most of the best drift cars are made there, it could happen anywhere from Poland to Pennsylvania.
With over half a million views on Facebook in less than a day, the teddy bear engine start button is going to be huge. However, we did a quick check on the internet, and nobody sells this over-the-shelf.
You flip one toggle, check out the fuel pressure and start that bad boy up. I think it's safe to say this particular car used to have a good old-fashioned key back in the day, accompanied by manual air conditioning and a CD changer.
As if this story wasn't weird enough already, we tracked down the very teddy bear in the video. It's the famous Rilakkuma (we just found out, an official character invested by the Japanese company San-X in 2003.
You've probably never heard of him and can't spell "Rilakkuma" either, but the little fellow is worth millions in advertising and merchandise. Due to his success, several games were also developed for the Nintendo DS and Wii.
Like everything made in Japan, this teddy bear is really odd by regular teddy bear standards. His name is a combination of the English word for 'relax' and the Japanese one for "bear". And apparently, there is a zipper on his back that reveals a blue polka dot pattern material. Is there a man in underwear behind the costume?
We don't know. However, we would not be surprised by the discovery of a Rilakkuma-themed car, as there are several Hello Kitty ones, including those that are made for drifting.
