Darth Vader’s C6 Corvette Helmet Visits Jay Leno

Now that Star Wars: The Force Awakens has dropped, and my excitement has reached epic levels of nerding out, everyone, and I mean everyone, including us, is trying to get in on the Star Wars mania. Today, we’re going to bring you as close as we can without straying too far away from Corvettes. The best way we know how to do that is with this: a Hot Wheels Darth Vader car that docked in Jay Leno’s Garage on its way to a galaxy, far, far away.

The car began life as a C6 Corvette, but as you can all see, it has been highly modified to look similar to Darth Vader’s helmet from Star Wars. Besides being fully functional, and a real-life Hot Wheels car, the ‘Vette is remote controlled. Or at least the cockpit opening is remote controlled. It also seems as if you’re sitting behind Darth Vader’s mask, which would be a totally surreal experience.

Check it out in the video below and let us know what you all think of this Star Wars car. What do you think about them using a C6 Corvette as its base? Is the Force strong with this one?
