For some strange reason that's frankly beyond our understanding French carmaker Peugeot has released a special version of the RCZ named after American motorcycle builder Arlen Ness. The production two-door is worlds away from the custom choppers Ness builds, but this won't stop it from making an appearance at the Motor Bike Expo in Verona, Italy.
The RCZ has been finished in a two-tone paintjob, with matte black on top and orange on the bottom. Accent pieces like the wheels and spoiler, together with a longitudinal stripe, are also painted matte black.

The French coupe has been fitted with a full set of Brembo brakes, custom suspension and what look like motorcycle exhaust tips.

As for the performance side, the 1.6-liter THP under the bonnet has been fitted with high-flow air filter and a Termignoni sports exhaust that lift output to to 200 horsepower.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
