Rolls Royce Coupe Based On Nissan 350Z Designed By Overambitious Indian Designer

A couple of years ago Indian designer Dilip Chabria set out to create a very unique car for a very unique customer, one of the Maharaja’s of India. And the result? This, a Rolls-Royce “wannabe” based on a Nissan 350Z. And it’s now for sale by a London-based company at a spectacular £750,000.

The Rolls Royce Coupe, nicknamed “The Black Ruby” may not be one of the best looking cars on the road, but you do have to give the designer some credit for creativity. I especially like the way the grille gels with the front end but why base it on a 350Z ?? And to pay £750,000 for a 350Z ?? He must have mistaken the Maharaja for an idiot, probably that’s why it’s on sale now.

Actually is this car an offical bespoke Rolls Royce, or built by a renowned coachbuilder like Zagato for example.....

Or god forbid a "Chop Shop" coach builder that made it successfully?

The 1st time i saw a pic of this car via forwarded emails, the car was supposedly owned by the Brunei royals...

So does this run a V6 or a W12? or a V8? lol...

"USD1,000,000 One-Off Customized Rolls-Royce for You, Sir?"

The article above says that a car that was customed by an indian design firm DC designs that was produced for Brunei Royalties.
The similarity between the car sold above is the same down to the number plates "CEX1". DC = Dilip Chabria is quite err.. similar.
