Hot Wheels Darth Vader Car Comes to Life
July 24th, 2014

Mattel is introducing a new line of Star Wars-themed Hot Wheels cars, and even commissioned the building of a full-size version of the forthcoming Darth Vader car. Powered by a 526 horsepower GM LS3 engine, the car is designed so that it sounds like Darth Vader’s iconic deep breathing when it’s running. And here we thought Vader only drove the Death Star.
The Darth Vader Hot Wheels car is on display at this week’s San Diego Comic-Con, and you’ll be able to pick up a limited-edition version of the Darth Vader Hot Wheels car that sits inside of a lightsaber case this fall for about $40 (USD).
