Today, this car is estimated as the most valuable automobile in the world, period. But after taking the world by a storm, this car met with a crash and Mercedes not only withdrew themselves from Grand Prix racing for three long decades, but they also pulled back this vehicle into their own custody. But this thoroughbred was above them all, with only 3-4 cars surviving the post production. There were a coupe variant, a McLaren variant, and an inbred model as well. Driven by the great Sir Stirling Moss, this car won an unusually complex race from the golden age of automobile racing, the 50s. The name is unusually long and so are the historical roots behind this sports car. The stuff what legends are made from! This is exactly what 1955, 722 300 SLR was carved out of. The side exhausts and the front grills were a necessity for this monster needed to breathe a lot if it were to keep cool. The original SLR 300 is now kept safe inside Mercedes’ museum. 350,000 USD (2 Crore INR’s) came as the first heartbreak for many! Unsurprisingly, the car garnered a huge fan following, especially among the up and growing kids, who lusted upon the thought of owning it someday, I included! But sadly, the price tag, i.e. Even as of today, I haven’t seen a car whose rear feels as prominent as that of the Tarzan’s, all thanks to the huge chrome separators accentuating the design. This car has its roots in the legendary Toyota MR2, though the ingenious overhaul makes it hard to believe so. Even a casual glance will leave you awed about the body aesthetics, which happen to be a complex play of many surfaces. It holds a revered spot in automobile designing, being the first car whose shape was dictated by the demands of a movie. But the feels and the glances! Oh yeah!Ĭompeting with the likes of Ferrari and Lamborghini (at least for the looks) DC’s Tarzan was a self-explanatory ‘wonder car’ when it made a debut back in 2004, in the eponymously titled movie. A side by side comparison can leave you baffled as to how these two cars are basically the one and the same! Such is the power of the creative genius from DC, and of course the money! It’s killer looks are the killer for the pocket as well, as they’ll set you back up to 10,00,000 INR for the modification part alone. The car looks and feels as if a fusion reaction took place between an old style classic ford and a modern high-end Gypsy, which amusingly isn’t the case either way! To top it all, the plush cabin and chic exteriors don’t rip it off its off-road talents, hence making it the perfect style statement in almost all driving conditions. Forget about Audi’s and BMW’s! For trust us, none would gather the attention or build the awe as would this custom beauty, all thanks to an absolute overhaul from DC. With its chic design, bold color scheme and ‘first in class’ ergonomics, this is an absolute stunner for the segment. If you crave a car that’s unlike anything else on the road, grab a Mahindra Thar and get it customized from DC. In fact, he takes pride about his 600+ car designs being distinctly apart from each other. DC loves to disappoint none, no matter whatever the car be. These range from exterior specific kits to an absolute overhaul of the cabin as well. Any person can visit one of his showrooms and request a body work for their car. Throughout most of his 20-year long career, DC has been customizing cars on demand.
