"Sitting and driving the Diabolika is like to get in a super New edition of the famous comic strips," says the website of StudioTorino, creator of the Fiat 500 you see above. "Here you can become accomplice and protagonist in a contest to share the everyday exploits of Diabolik and his partner Eva Kant." You can do that through such woeful modifications as prominent "Diabolika" logos, laser-printed Diabolik seats, wire wheels like Diabolik's Jaguar E-Type, and special Pirelli tires with little Diabolik masks cut into the tread surface.

Although the actual story behind Diabolik is on Italian websites, so we have no idea what it is, the accompanying press photos (which can be seen in our forums) show Diabolik as some sort of magnificent poof who prances around stealing from the wicked. In a set of bodice-hugging black pajamas. And a ninja mask that perfectly frames his mascara. Really. Based on our limited exposure, the Diabolik franchise makes 1960s-camp "Batman" positively drip masculinity. 40-weight masculinity. The kind you could lube a diesel with.

StudioTorino says they'll only make 50 of the cars, which good because somewhere between concept and execution, this car went from "interesting-yet-cheeky" to "45-year-old-man-with-Thundercats-bedsheets."
