1987 Sbarro Monster G

Proving that extremes did not have to relate to speed alone, Sbarro's 1987 Monster G was a phenomenal all-wheel-drive concoction. It was not the four-wheel-drive but the wheels themselves that impressed: they were taken from a Boeing jet with specially made Goodyear tires! These made the Range Rover platform-based Monster sit some 7ft 5in (2.3 meters) tall, and the 350bhp Mercedes-Benz 6.9-litre V-eight was needed to get those wheels moving. It's documented for having a top speed of 200km/h. It was presented at the 1987 Geneva Motor Show.
