Recently, we delved into the realm of automotive aftermarket and digital creativity, shedding light on Artisan Vehicle Design’s ambitious project reviving the spirit of classic Nissan Skyline GT-Rs through custom R35 builds.
Artisan, a brainchild of Ibrahim Choudery (1st Choice Motors) and digital artist Roman Miah (romanmiah on social media), aims to imbue the enduring R35 with the essence of its Skyline predecessors, despite lacking physical products at present.
Since its inception, we’ve closely monitored Artisan’s journey, guided by their ethos of “Reviving timelessness in design.” Progress continues swiftly, with plans to debut their creations at prestigious global auto shows after commencing body scans and development in December 2023.
While still in its conceptual phase, the Artisan Nissan GT-R exemplifies its vision, crafted through collaboration with digital car content creators. This visionary approach seeks to breathe new life into an iconic vehicle, drawing inspiration from the legendary Skyline GT-R lineage renowned for its strength and power.
Initially dubbed the ‘Opulence Edition,’ this bespoke series comprises meticulously curated models, each influenced by the hues adorning the Indian national flag. Guided by a distinct color palette, Mulliner introduced Scarab Green, a bespoke paint hue evoking the iridescent exoskeleton of the Scarab beetle.
Crafted in Crewe, England, each Opulence Edition model boasts a Scarab Green exterior complemented by Mandarin and Cumbrian Green leather interiors, paying homage to Indian national colors.
Intricate design elements, including chrome motifs depicting wild horses and mountain peaks, further elevate the bespoke experience tailored exclusively for Bentley Mumbai.
Underneath its exquisite exterior, the Opulence Edition Continental GT Speed harnesses a potent W12 engine, delivering remarkable performance alongside impeccable craftsmanship. Similarly, the Opulence Edition Flying Spur Speed exudes luxury, featuring an illuminated Flying B mascot and refined W12 power.
Completing the lineup, the Opulence Edition Bentayga EWB Azure SUVs offer unparalleled comfort and sophistication, epitomizing Bentley’s commitment to opulence and exclusivity.
As the first Bentley Mulliner Bespoke Limited Edition for the Indian market, this collection symbolizes a harmonious fusion of power, grace, and cultural significance, setting a new standard for bespoke luxury in the automotive realm.
Stay tuned for further updates as the Opulence Edition takes center stage, showcasing Bentley’s dedication to craftsmanship and individuality.
