Only in America

We weren’t sure about giving this monstrous crossbreed the air of publicity, but seeing as they’ve assured us it’s a one-off, ladies and gentlemen may we present the DiMora JX Coupe Concept.

Yes, that’s right, coupe. While it might look to all intents and purposes like a pick-up truck with a cover over the loadbay, customiser DiMora Designs reckons this is a coupe.

The JX is based on a 1999 Chrysler Concorde, a run-of-the-mill front-wheel-drive US saloon that normally has four doors and seats for five.

But the owner of this Concorde decided he wanted something a bit different – hence this two-door, two-seat special.

After removing the back seats, rear doors and half of the roof, DiMora added a new 3.2-litre V6 engine, plus sports exhaust system. The interior was retrimmed in leather.

In the unlikely event you’d like a closer look, go to www.dimoramotor.com, where you can also see DiMora Motors' plans for the fantastic $2m Natalia SLS.

A horrid execution of a horrible idea.

:barf:

such a waste of money.

I cannot think of a better way for someone to waste their life- whoever dreamt up this jalopy probably collects 8 track tapes.

That is so awesome. Only in America.

This is what makes this such a sweet ride:
"We replaced the stock engine with a 260 HP 3.2 liter V6 from ATK, which is backed by a three-year unlimited mileage warranty. We added a "Tornado" vortex component to the air intake. MPG was increased 10% and horsepower grew by 10%. We have not had a dyno test on the engine, but we estimate the engine's horsepower was increased to 260."

That was worse than the tattoo thread with the pork rinds.
