Viper-based luxury coupe or Next Batmobile

I'm gonna go on a limb here and say that the car has never been built. A Switzerland Lambo dealer is selling it and they have photos for all the other cars their selling but this one has stock images of the actual car? Kinda makes it seem like there waiting for someone to shell out the money for the project first before they even think about doing it.

Got a poster of that V12 in my garage. Thought it was cool, but 8 mil

I saw the concept car at a car show here in Europe - cant remember where ... never heard it has a Viper based engine

Not sure where that information came from but this car was never based either on looks or on the engine from the Viper. So far there is only one.

Ditto that. Engine comes from Mercedes if memory serves me correctly and they only made one roadgoing car, don't know it's the same chassis as the prototype though..

They are talking about a viper based knock off..

The notion of “why do you own a replica, get the real one” doesn’t really apply in this situation. Apart from the exorbitant price tag, there are simply none available. It’s like telling someone to not buy a replica of the Mona Lisa. For this reason, some fanatics has taken it upon themselves to build their own “budget” (well, I say budget) variants of the Exelero, with 2010 Dodge Vipers as bases at the more palatable price of €550,000. For that dough, you get an 8,3L engine, V10 with 800 hp compressor, 23 inch wheels, all hand assembled in Switzerland. Both the exterior and the interior can be fully customized to every customer’s wishes.

Maybach should have produced that, in the $300k range. It would have been great competition for the Brooklands and Phantom Coupe/Drophead.
