Ever wonder what would happen if you crossed a Nissan 350Z with a Rolls-Royce? Yeah, us neither. But Indian styling house DC Design, the same people who brought us the Cayenne coupe, seem to have a knack for crafting the answers to questions no one was asking – with considerable skill, mind you.
DC Comics gave us Batman and Bruce Wayne, but DC Design gives us the wheels that would satisfy both: a one-off custom coach-built Rolls-Royce coupe, complete with gargantuan wheels and trick Enzo-style doors that are sure to turn heads. Details aren't available, though it's rumored to be based on a Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit platform. The styling reminds us of such concept cars as the Maybach Exelero and the Peugeot 907 and 908 RC.
Rolls-Royce's own two-door may be on its way, but this one's sure to remain one of a kind – for better or for worse.
More images after the jump. (AutoExpress has a couple of shots of the car caught in the wild.)

Pimp my 350Z! No thanks. I can usually find something to like about most projects (excluding Corvettes & Harleys) but I just can't dig this thing. Maybe if they had mated a Bentley GT with the Rolls Royce, but mixing a Rolls & Nissan Z car is just plain silly.

Yes, because people in the ghetto can afford a RR/Bentley/350Z hybrid!!!

Put that front end on a RR and you've got a major improvement compared to pictures I saw of RR on Autoblog recently.
It vulgar-ugly. Someone wrote "vulgar was what sells". I do think RR needs this look.
350Z definitly needs a fresh, updated front end "make-over" but NOT as pictured in this article.
I have always been dissappointed the 350Z did not resemble its classic ancestor , the 240Z!
350 nose is too stubby/fat looking..
The rear end looks nice, from what is pictured.

I drew better looking cars when I was in the 7th grade - and that was some 47 years ago!!!
MK @ Oct 15th 2006 12:11PM
I like half of it, the front half! Why use a 350Z body? Did they run out of money? It doesn't work & it looks... Half-assed.

This reminded me of the 2000 Audi Rosemeyer concept:

isn't funny how "The Batmobile" is an attractive theme in car design?I wonder sometimes what people are reaching for.sometimes I think it's because cars all seem to look alike.Gender neutral generic styling.You know...Camrys,accords ,even Mercedes are starting to look alike.When Chrysler showed up with the 300c they sold well because that car had a sophisticated masculine attitude.I think most cars are designed to appeal to as many tastes as possible that's why they re so vanilla.

PiCASSO, Audi Rosemeyer concept looks much better than this Rolls-Royce coupe.
Is like you made a comparation between a top model and a women of 50-60 years
cowboy bob @ Oct 15th 2006 5:43PM
I like it. So there.
JZeke @ Oct 15th 2006 10:44PM
Proof that the future of auto design is not with the manufacturers, but in the hands of crazy individualists...
Then again, thats where alot of the best design has always been. Vive la difference!
AJ Quick @ Oct 15th 2006 11:38PM
Wow.. I don't know what to think. On one hand it does have some very slick lines, but on the other half its boxy and ugly.

looks like a kit car, and the design does not flow. it looks forced.
