Bewerp Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS to headline Top Marques Monaco

Remember the old days when calling a car a "land yacht" was a bad thing? Well those days are far behind us, with Audi sport-utilities and Rolls-Royce convertibles alike now purposely taking their cues from the water-bound. This just might top it, though. It's called the Bewerp Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS. (We didn't make that up. We couldn't have). It's the plan of a couple of Dutch students, Emile Pop and Justin de Boer, to separate the obscenely wealthy from their money.
The concept is something of a cross between a Pagani Zonda Roadster, the Lamborghini Estoque concept and a Bentley Continental GTC. Only crazier. It's a four-door, four-seat hardtop convertible with a custom spaceframe chassis overlaid with carbon fiber. Power is provided by a Corvette LS7 engine, supercharged to deliver 600 horsepower and driving the rear wheels through a GM-sourced automatic. Koni shocks and custom air suspension are at each corner, with eight-piston calipers gripping 380mm discs up front and four-piston/355mm brakes at the back. Unique suicide, scissor doors are operated via a custom wristwatch or touchscreen to give access to a compartmentalized, nautical-themed and luxuriously-appointed cabin from which the engine can be seen. If all of this sounds incredibly expensive, it is: they'll be asking €257,000 apiece (approximately $340k), with the first example, currently under production, to debut at the chi-chi Top Marques show in Monaco this April. By then, their prospective clients may have recuperated some of their cash, but the car's name likely won't have gotten any shorter.Gallery: Bewerp Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS

Someone needs to have their crayons and mouse taken away. Are we supposed to take this seriously? Amateur renderings of a Hot Wheels design penned by a 14 year old. Oh, and how much?...

Looks like a car from a movie set. The kind of car they would create for something like robo-cop 4

Or a video game that doesn't want to pay licensing fees.

Does every carmaker have to use GTS? I'm sick of these acronym names.
And the rest of that name is way too long. And the car isn't really that good looking, rather have an R8 or Gallardo.

well, its better than
Bewerp Savage Rivale Roadyacht Grand Touring Sport
that way, no acronyms.
I'd be happy if the cars fit the acronyms they slap on them.

Looks like an awesome cross between an F430 and a Gallardo.

you would think being that far along in the design process they could've afforded to spend more than 2 minutes making the renders.
Or maybe the BSRRGTS is being unveiled as an additional car for Gran-Turismo....2.

GTS? Really? They couldn't just stop at Roadyacht, they had to slap the GTS on the for emphasis on it's 30 syllable long name.
Hey man, nice car. What is that?
Oh it's just a Bewerp Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS with overnight parts from Japan.

Having too much beer while making renderings and thinking about a name...
First guy: "Burp!!! Oh, sorry."
Second guy: "What did you say? That sounds like a good name"

Is it really suicide-scissor? It looks to be forward hinged...
