Получился эдакий - плод дьявольской любви Бэтмена и Дарта Вейдера!


Doodling dream cars is just a pastime for most of us, but fashion designer John Weitz is serious about driving a car that suits him. His X600, is being hand-formed in aluminum and the prototype should be ready next month for the auto-show circuit. The aluminum sports car is on s 108-inch wheelbase and weighs in at 2300 pounds with its 350-cu.-in. V8. The engine, drive train and suspension are off-the-shelf GM parts.

Unlike other cars with fashion designer names on them—Gucci, Cardin, Bill Blass — the X600 was styled from the ground up by Weitz. The designer Cadillacs and Continentals have only paint, upholstery and badges to distinguish them from their mass-produced counterparts.

Whether the X600 goes on sale as a high-priced, custom-made automobile is still a question. Meanwhile, John Weitz will have the prototype in his garage. It'll be his very own dream car-and not on paper.
