Meshing the world of action sports with the automobile industry, 686 in conjunction with Scion has revealed the first-ever vehicle, the “Numeric,” dedicated solely to snowboarding. Each feature and part on the car highlights an aspect of the wintertime sport through extreme customization.

Snow-specific tires, carbon fiber roofing, which mirrors a rider’s helmet, and a windshield design rivaling Dragons’ frame-less goggles are just a few of the other crafty innovations which can be noticed. The “Numeric” is truly a one-of-a-kind automobile that will begin its showcase within the action sports industry at SIA in January of 2012.
