DiMora Vicci 6.2 Heads to El Paseo Art Walk Exquisite $1.2 Million Hand-Built Automotive Masterpiece on Display
DiMora Motorcar will be displaying one of their limited-edition DiMora Vicci 6.2 Emperor Convertibles at Elena Bulatova Fine Art Gallery (at 73-190 El Paseo, Palm Desert, California), April 7, 2017. The showing coincides with the monthly El Paseo Art Walk Night, from 2-9PM.
- (1888PressRelease) April 02, 2017 - Palm Springs, California - "We are extremely thrilled to display the DiMora Vicci 6.2 in front of our gallery," said Elena Bulatova, owner of Elena Bulatova Fine Art. "Contemporary fine art collectors and automobile investors will appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the DiMora Vicci 6.2 rolling art."
The 2,820-pound car has: gold and gold leaf strategically placed throughout the automobile; an aluminum radiator; a 6.2 liter aluminum engine; a Bosch Hydro-Boost Power Booster; state-of-the-art electronics; wire wheels; racing suspension; an aluminum drive shaft; Italian leather; and English Wilton Wool carpet to add to the luxury ambiance. Accompanying the 430-hp engine is an aluminum 4-speed or 6-speed along with a posi rear end. The DiMora Vicci 6.2 also comes in a 556 horse-power supercharged engine option, but with power like that, it's definitely not for the faint of heart.
"I am passionate about automobiles and appreciate fine art, so I set out to collaborate with the top one-hundred living artists to create the first true limited-edition production rolling art. The Elena Bulatova Fine Art Gallery is a contemporary art venue that showcases many world-renowned artists and we look forward to showing one of our Vicci 6.2's at the gallery during the Art Walk event," said DiMora.
Automobiles and art have been excellent investments throughout the collectors' financial world and without exception the DiMora Vicci 6.2 has attracted both collector communities. The distinctive 430-horse power rolling art on wheels is the result of a unique joint collaboration between automotive designer Sir Alfred J. DiMora and equally influential Totemic Energy Artist Master Lee Sun-Don of Taiwan.
Upon purchase of each DiMora Vicci 6.2 Emperor Convertible, the buyer also receives the original one-of-a-kind painting by Zen Master Lee that is replicated onto the automobile. Each large-scale painting in the Great Treasure Gate series pays artistic homage to rare door knockers created during the Qing Dynasty (from 1644-1912 AD) by incorporating an actual Qing Dynasty doorknocker into the canvas painting. From that, the skilled artisans at DiMora Motorcar invest no less than 700 man-hours to reproduce the artwork onto the hood and side panels of the car, right down to hand laying 24-karat gold leaf as a final step.
DiMora has been in the automotive business for nearly 40 years, having owned Clenet Coachworks, Inc. The Clenet was named the "American Rolls-Royce" by Fortune magazine, so there's no doubt that his equally stunning DiMora Vicci 6.2 is commanding the same level of respect.
"We have been very selective with every aspect of building the DiMora Vicci 6.2, so when it came time to choose the first artist series collaboration, not just any artist would do," shared DiMora. Master Lee Sun-Don's popularity worldwide continues to make him a highly sought-after artist. His artwork is currently showing in galleries around the world, including Beverly Hills, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Taipei, to name but a few.
In an industry where quality and performance matter, the sporty and artistically stimulating DiMora Vicci 6.2 Emperor Series spares no expense with its distinctive hand-built craftsmanship and DiMora Motorcar's lightweight carbon DFD technology. The limited-edition Vicci 6.2 combines 1930's Art Deco style with 21st Century technology. Each 1.2 million dollar limited-edition production rolling art has aesthetically pleasing features that showcase the DiMora brand's originality, where creativity sees no limits and offers up a driving experience that is unmatched.
The April 7th showing will coincide with an artist reception for Mrs. Yvonne DiMora's Glamour Girls fine art series. Sir Alfred J. DiMora, founder of DiMora Motorcar, is also scheduled to be on hand during the event to answer questions about the automobile.
