Dilip Chhabria Gaia
Al-Araba Signature Car #1
Geneva 2003
Pankaj Jhunja,
Head of DC Design Studio presented at Geneva the DC
Gaia,
a complete different car, in
comparison to the Infidel of
2002.
The Gaia is based on a Mitsubishi
Lancer, unbelievable, but it's the truth.
The styling is unique, showing a long hood, the front
looks like a sporty, lowered Dodge Pickup.
The side-view is dominated by real big wheels,
and the rear is looking like a Chrysler Crossfire,
but even more interesting, more powerful.
Joint-Venture partner
of Dilip Chhabria is Al-Araba,
personalised by Engineer Fouzy
Ayoub Sabri.
Al-Araba, founded in 1980 is a company in Saudi Arabia,
they are in the car business.
(Have a look at their
homepage, they sell luxury cars,
they customise cars, they have the possiblity to make
chrome, or gold plated parts, and so on...)
The plan is to build "Signature
Cars", that means that there will be 25 unique cars, based on the
same platform, sharing the same body, BUT with a lot of individual details.
So the buyers will be able to choose, or even to create
the final look of the car.
Wheels, trim, interior, colors, graphics, badges,
and other details will be designed to create a car,
that shows the owner's signature.
I'm curious to see more!
