Australian/Malaysian automaker Bufori, which specializes in creating custom automobiles inspired by 1930s-era American coupes, has announced plans to introduce its new MKVI Luxury Saloon – soon to be christened with an official name as well – at the rapidly approaching Geneva Motor Show. If you thought Swiss companies like Rinspeed had the offbeat market cornered, think again.
Gerry Khouri, Managing Director and co-Founder of BUFORI said in a statement: “This new model marks an important milestone in the company’s history. The MKVI is our first four-door saloon and we are excited at presenting this more contemporary interpretation of the BUFORI philosophy to the world.”
Here’s all we know about the saloon thus far: it will have a 6.1-liter V8 engine of unknown origin, rear-hinged coach doors and “endless customization options.” Oh yeah, and it looks a little bit awkward in this initial teaser sketch. We’ll see the new Bufori for ourselves in person come March 2nd, in the meantime, click past the break for the official press release.
