The best thing about the banana car driving around New York City right now is that it doesn't seem to be some sort of marketing gimmick set forth by the Banana Council of America, or whatever. These brothers just wanted to make a car that looked like a banana, so they did! According to Runnin' Scared, Steve Braithwaite and his brother Spade created it after the former "glanced at a bowl of bananas at a gas station and thought, 'I could build a banana car!'"

They've been driving around the city today, hitting up Rockefeller Center and Times Square, but will be heading back to Pennsylvania soon. Follow them on Twitter, because at press time they only have four followers, and check out more of the banana's Big Apple adventures right here.
