The 'Dream Machines' Team Builds A Custom Concept Car For 50 Cent (VIDEO)

Check Out 50 Cent's New 'Dream Machine'

On “Dream Machines” (Tue., 10 p.m. ET on Syfy) 50 Cent asked the Parker Brothers Concepts team to build him his very own high-performance concept car.

The rapper challenged them to create a street-legal ride combining the best of a Formula 1 race car and a jet fighter.

As Shanon Parker showed off the incredible all-white futuristic car to a delighted 50 Cent, he highlighted some of its mindblowing features.

"It’s got the cool, heads up, battle-ready display lookin’ like you’re in a fighter jet," he said. That "Top Gun" feel was enhanced by "Touch-screen integration in the cockpit."

Can't afford a Parker Bros. concept car? Check out one of their vehicles in "Battleship," which opens in theaters May 18. See more of their comic book-inspired creations on "Dream Machines," Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET on Syfy.
