What the heck is this?

[Smithman]

Okay, maybe not the right forum for this, but I figured if anyone could tell me it'd be our trivia experts here.

I came across these images and wanted to know what on Earth this car is.

Agreed. There's just too much going on I think.

its like somone got good elemnts from european cars and then pumped them up so that it looks proposterus

[Vaigra]

hmm I'm sure this came out before the Enzo though..I really can't remember

[kentuki]

Strange car

[rev440]

Looks like a jumble of a couple Ferrari models and mercedes. The side intakes kinda look like a 360 imo

[Esperante]

Eeew. Straight from HotWheels.

hope this is never produced or if it is, not in large numbers.

The Mitsuoka Orochi.


I've always thought it looked like it started out as a good-looking car but then partially melted.

it's going into production this month - finally after 3 years of waiting
they probably afraid that the coupe won't sell too good and they decided to make an open-version of it
however, i think it's not because of the look of the coupe - japanese people like that kind of styling, take a look of some cars that are only for japanese market - none of them would sell good in europe or us

Anyone know the price? I remember driving it in a game, i dont remember the name of the game. All i remember were the crappy cel-shading graphics. Poo.

EDIT: remembered the name of the game, "Auto Modellista"
