As we all know, nothing succeeds like excess, so the Dodge Tomahawk should prove a real winner. After all, what’s more excessive than a 375 kW motorcycle with an 8 300cc Dodge Viper V10 engine that costs just under R4 million and can’t even be ridden?
The one-off Dodge Tomahawk concept bike made a lot of noise at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January 2003 and attracted so much interest that the factory’s decided to commission a second be sold through the prestigious Neiman Marcus Christmas book published this week in the USA. Price? $555,000 (approx. R3 885 000).
The reproduction, to be fabricated by the original builders as a piece of automotive sculpture, is intended for display only; it will not be fully operational and cannot be legally operated on public roads. In addition to the vehicle commissioned for Neiman Marcus, up to nine additional Tomahawk reproductions may be produced.
