Maestro WORKS - Luigi 'Lutz' Colani, a legendary figure in automotive design, brought his visionary touch to numerous projects, but one that stands out for its mystery and intrigue is his concept for the Dodge Stealth. This unique design, often referred to as the Luigi Colani Blue Car, reimagined the controversial Dodge Stealth, a car that found itself at the center of national debates about American identity in the early 1990s. Colani’s interpretation breathed new life into the Stealth, taking it beyond the limits of its original concept and influencing future designs in the process.

The Dodge Stealth itself was part of a collaboration between Chrysler and Mitsubishi, built on the Japanese Z16A platform shared with the Mitsubishi GTO/3000GT. While it carried Dodge branding, the car’s Japanese origins became a point of contention. In 1991, the Stealth was selected as the pace car for the 75th Indianapolis 500, but this decision faced harsh criticism from union leaders and patriotic fans who felt the car didn’t represent true American craftsmanship. The tension surrounding the Stealth was heightened by the Gulf War, leading Chrysler executives to reconsider their choice. In February 1991, just months before the race, they replaced the Stealth with a pre-production Dodge Viper, a car that symbolized American muscle and ingenuity.

Amid this controversy, Luigi Colani’s design for the Dodge Stealth emerged. While it’s unclear whether Colani was officially commissioned by Chrysler or whether this was an independent project, his design transformed the Stealth in a way that was uniquely his. Colani’s take on the car featured his signature bio-design language, with fluid, organic shapes that made the vehicle look like it was in motion even when standing still. The front fascia, with its elongated nose and double headlights, gave the car an almost otherworldly appearance, blending aerodynamic efficiency with Colani’s artistic vision. The rear, reminiscent of American muscle cars like the Camaro, added a sense of raw power and speed to the design.

Interestingly, Colani’s work on the Dodge Stealth seemed to have a lasting influence on his later designs. In the late 1990s, Colani revisited the Dodge brand, creating several remodels of the Dodge Viper in collaboration with Autohaus Getra, a German automotive company. His work on the Viper, including the Mamba Concept, featured striking elements that echoed his earlier Stealth design. The distinctive double headlights and flowing lines that characterized the Colani Blue Car reappeared in these remodels, suggesting that Colani’s experience with the Stealth left a lasting impact on his design philosophy.

Colani’s work in the early 2000s further demonstrated the influence of his Dodge Stealth concept. One notable example is the Colani Shark Speedster, a design that emerged in collaboration with Reinhard Stahl, a German auto design house. The Shark Speedster, with its sleek lines and futuristic aesthetic, bore a resemblance to the Colani Blue Car, particularly in its front fascia. It’s as though Colani took the DNA of the Stealth design and refined it for the next generation of his work. | zF4wJglSr_8 |
The Luigi Colani Dodge Stealth concept stands as a testament to the designer’s ability to turn controversy into creativity. Where others saw a car mired in debates about national identity, Colani saw an opportunity to push boundaries and redefine what the Stealth could be. His Blue Car design, with its organic shapes and radical ideas, not only reimagined the Stealth but also laid the groundwork for future projects, leaving an indelible mark on automotive design well into the 2000s. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | COLANI | COLANI.ORG | CULTOBJECTS IN X | BUBBLEMANIA.FR | STORY-CARS| RAWVIPER | DODGEGARAGE | MOPARINSIDERS | REDDIT WEIRDWHEEL ]

Forgotten ONES - In the world of luxury cars, certain names resonate with history and passion. Just as Facel Vega once stood as a symbol of French automotive prestige, another name briefly flickered in that same realm—Monica. Named after the wife of its creator, industrialist Jean Tastevin, this car was poised to carry on the legacy of luxury French cars. But unlike many long-standing names in the industry, Monica’s time was tragically short, marking an interesting yet brief chapter in French automotive history.
The Monica sports GT, shown here as the 1973 Monica 560 V8 model, was created by Jean Tastevin's French company, Compagnie Française de Produits Métallurgiques (CFPM), in the early 1970s.(Picture from: GordonMercedes9 on X)
Jean Tastevin, known for his company that manufactured rolling stock for French railways, had a deep admiration for the luxurious creations of Facel Vega, a French luxury car maker that ceased production in 1964. Tastevin saw an opportunity to revive the spirit of French luxury motoring, and within two years, his thoughts were centered on building a new car that would fill the gap left behind by Facel Vega. This decision would eventually lead to the creation of the Monica, but the road to production was filled with challenges.

Unlike the Facel Vega models that were powered by large Chrysler V8 engines, Tastevin’s new car needed to comply with French tax regulations, which meant a smaller engine. The answer came in the form of a 2.6-liter Triumph TR4 engine, developed by Chris Lawrence, a skilled engineer and racing driver.

As the development progressed, the Monica featured innovative engineering for its time. Its suspension system was sophisticated, with a double-wishbone setup at the front and a Panhard rod at the rear. The car was equipped with disc brakes all around, ensuring it could stop as gracefully as it accelerated.

Inside, the Monica was no less impressive. Its interior was a blend of craftsmanship and luxury, with finely finished wood accents that gave the cabin a classic GT feel. The green scripted Veglia gauges added a touch of sophistication, while the dark blue leather upholstery paired with parchment-colored carpets created a comfortable and inviting environment. Rear seating was particularly plush, with thick padding and ample legroom, making it a true luxury saloon.

However, as the prototypes were built and tested, it became clear that the Triumph engine lacked the refinement necessary for a car of this stature. This led to a significant change in the powertrain. Lawrence, recognizing the need for a more refined engine, convinced Tastevin to switch to a 3.0-liter V8 designed by Ted Martin. Although the new V8 was smoother, it lacked low-end torque, prompting the decision to increase its displacement to 3.5 liters, which boosted power to 240 bhp when fitted with Weber carburettors.

Despite these improvements, the Monica’s journey was far from smooth. A series of prototypes were built over the following years, with various engineers and companies lending their expertise to the project. Renowned coachbuilders such as Chapron and Vignale, along with body builders Williams & Pritchard, contributed to different aspects of the car's development. This collaborative effort resulted in multiple body designs, engine configurations, and transmission setups, all while costs continued to rise.

The Monica finally made its public debut at the Paris Salon in October 1971, under the name Monica 350. However, the car still lacked the performance to truly compete with its rivals, leading to another significant change. The decision was made to replace the 3.5-liter V8 with a more powerful 5.6-liter Chrysler V8, producing 285 bhp and 333 lb-ft of torque.

Yet, despite its impressive specifications, the timing of the Monica’s release could not have been worse. The global oil crisis of the early 1970s made large, thirsty V8 engines far less appealing, and the Monica struggled to find buyers. By 1975, just as production was starting to gain momentum, Tastevin made the difficult decision to shut down the project.

Although Panther Westwinds briefly considered continuing production in the UK, the plan ultimately fell through, leaving the Monica as a rare footnote in automotive history. As Jean Tastevin had envisioned a production run of 400 Monicas per year, but in the end, only 35 cars were ever built, most of which were pre-production prototypes.
Today, the Monica stands as the last independent French luxury car, joining the ranks of forgotten brands like Facel Vega and Delahaye. Though its time was brief, the Monica’s story remains a fascinating chapter in the history of luxury motoring—a testament to ambition, craftsmanship, and the ever-changing fortunes of the automotive world. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | CURBSIDECLASSIC | HAGERTY | BRINGATRAILER | GORDONMERCEDES9 | WIKIPEDIA | DRIVENTOWRITE | RARECOMPONENTCARS ]
