There’s a new ashtray making its way to retailers, with its inspiration coming from high performance auto racing.

The XIKAR Burnout Ashtray has been teased by the company since March, and on Tuesday the company announced that it is now shipping to retailers, as well as available via the company’s website.

The ashtray is designed to look like a wheel, or at least like a nice rim; it features a removable 10” metal chrome wheel lid with six slotted cigar rests. The base is a heavy-duty matte black melamine receptacle, and the entire ashtray is billed as being weather and heat resistant. The interior is also gloss coated for easy cleaning.

XIKAR has released a number of other cigar accessories with vehicle themes and inspirations, including the Hot Rod Collection and Forte lighter.

The XIKAR Burnout Ashtray has an MSRP of $99.99.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
