The Extinct - In the world of automotive design, some unique creations are destined to capture imaginations even if they remain elusive to the public. Among these, the Ford Taurus SHO Intercoast GTP is a standout, a car that exemplifies innovation and ambition, yet slipped into obscurity not long after its creation. Though the 1990s were full of experimental vehicles, few concepts have as intriguing a story as this tandem-seat supercar. Designed by Mel Francis, a visionary car builder from California, this car was meant to be a fusion of high-speed performance and practical efficiency—a combination that felt far ahead of its time.
The Ford Taurus SHO Intercoast GTP was a wild tandem-seat concept, built by Californian Mel Francis in 1993 and scrapped four years later. (Picture from: Carakoom)
The Ford Taurus SHO Intercoast GTP first took shape in 1992, a period when tandem seating was an experimental feature in car design. While other models, like Mazda’s E-Go Concept, Yamaha’s OX99-11, and Rinspeed's E-Go Rocket, played with similar configurations, the Intercoast GTP uniquely brought this design into the American market. Francis envisioned a streamlined, transcontinental “road cruiser” with tandem seating that positioned the driver at the center of the car, with room for a passenger directly behind—a bold departure from traditional seating arrangements. Inspired partly by the Ford Taurus SHO (SHO stand for Super High Output), a popular sports sedan, this concept car was set to blend comfort and sporty aesthetics in an innovative way.

At its core, the Intercoast GTP borrowed heavily from the 1992 Ford Taurus SHO, utilizing its mechanical elements while reconfiguring them for the mid-engine layout within a custom-built steel tube spaceframe chassis. Francis aimed to transform the Taurus SHO’s sedan qualities into something radically different. The car’s structure positioned the driver in the center, similar to the configuration found later in the famous McLaren F1. This unusual setup created a cockpit-focused driving experience, which was intended to improve aerodynamics and provide a more engaging connection to the road. Meanwhile, a full-size trunk allowed ample space for long journeys, aligning with Francis’s vision of a practical, cross-country cruiser.

In terms of design, the Intercoast GTP was sleek and futuristic, featuring what was likely a “gull-wing” door mechanism, adding to its supercar appeal. The car was intended to offer better fuel efficiency than other supercars of the time, thanks to its narrow greenhouse and aerodynamic body. This low-drag profile was a key part of Francis’s vision, designed to enable long, fuel-efficient drives across highways without compromising on style or performance. The Taurus SHO’s 3.0-liter V6 engine was likely adapted to this prototype, capable of delivering 220 horsepower—enough for exhilarating highway speeds.

of the most distinctive features of the Ford Taurus SHO Intercoast GTP was its
motorbike-inspired tandem seating, with the driver seated centrally and a
second seat directly behind. (Picture from: Carakoom)
Despite its promise, the Intercoast GTP never made it beyond its concept phase. Francis’s workshop was eventually closed in 1997, and the unique supercar was dismantled, with its parts reportedly repurposed for other projects. It’s thought that the car was simply too advanced for its era, a vehicle that perhaps couldn’t find the necessary investors to bring it into production. The few glimpses of it that remain showcase a car that may have been built before its time, unable to attract mainstream attention or support in an industry not yet ready for such a blend of speed and practicality.

The legacy of the Ford Taurus SHO Intercoast GTP is a fascinating chapter in automotive history, underscoring the potential of innovative design in car manufacturing. Though only a single prototype was ever produced, its story continues to intrigue automotive enthusiasts who see in it a concept that dared to break conventions. This long-forgotten prototype remains a testament to the boldness of ideas that sometimes get lost in the fast-paced world of car design, leaving us to wonder what could have been if the Intercoast GTP had found its way to the open road. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | MEL FRANCIS IN FLICKR| ITS SHO TIME| FORDAUTHORITY | ROADANDTRACK | AUTOYAHOO | 9GAG | CARAKOOM | CARSTHATNEVERMADEITETC | HEARTBOOMCARS ]

Selfish ONES - Controversial, that's the right word to describe how Lamborghini Automobili's effort to celebrate its 50th anniversary with the launch of this unique concept car back in the 2013. According to the Sant'Agata Bolognese based automaker, the debut moment of the Lamborghini Egoista concept car on those weekend was "emotional."
The Lamborghini Egoista made its debut in 2013 as a bold and radical concept car designed to celebrate the Italian automaker's 50th anniversary. (Picture from: NewAtlas)
What specific emotions were involved is left to our imaginations, and shock, disbelief, anger, and maybe a tad of abandonment and rage on the part of onlookers comes to mind. Just two months after showing the Veneno (it could be say as the most extreme in its history), where Lamborghini push the boundaries even further.
Lamborghini likens the front design of its one-off Egoista to a trimaran, emphasizing its sharp, aerodynamic lines and futuristic aesthetic. (Picture from: NewAtlas)
The surprise Egoista concept is even more out there in design. Even without translating "egoista" from Italian to English (means "selfish"), the name conveys a certain sense of hubris and self indulgence, as in "whoever drives this assault on the pupils must be dominated by ego." To emphasize the selfishness meaning, because the car features a tiny cockpit that could occupied by one person as the driver only.
The Lamborghini Egoista uses a body and rims made from special anti-radar material and anti-glare glass with an orange gradation. (Picture from: NewAtlas)
Making its debut in celebration of the 50th Lamborghini anniversary, which makes Egoista looks like the radical work of creative design student. But it's actually a sort of birthday "gift" of the Volkswagen Group (Lamborghini's parent company), through the company's chief of design, Walter de Silva whose led the team to create this radical concept car.
The Lamborghini Egoista, with its single-person cockpit, caters to elite individuals seeking unparalleled exclusivity and extreme, uncompromising hedonism. (Picture from: NewAtlas)
De Silva explained the self-indulgent Egoista demographic further, "This is a car made for one person only, to allow them to have fun and express their personality to the maximum. It is designed purely for hyper-sophisticated people who want only the most extreme and special things in the world. It represents hedonism taken to the extreme, it is a car without compromises, in a word: egoista."
The Lamborghini Egoista makes selfishness tangible, with its design and features embodying pure individualism and exclusivity. (Picture from: NewAtlas)
This concept car boasts an incredibly extreme design, starting with an interior meticulously crafted to resemble a fighter jet cockpit, complete with a unique exit mechanism requiring the driver to climb out from the top, mimicking the egress of a real fighter jet.
The Lamborghini Egoista's open rear-end reduces weight and gives an aggressive look. (Picture from: NewAtlas)
The
cockpit, made completely of carbon fiber and aluminum, represents a
sort of survival cell, allowing the driver to isolate and protect
themselves from external elements. Then the exterior design certainly looks like the most extreme car concept that makes a lot of people say this concept car is similar to the Batmobile when it was painted entirely black.
By using the same engine as the Gallardo, the V10 engine has a capacity of 5.2 liters and can generate power of 600 hp. Not only selfish in the design, even the car can not be driven at any time. This car can only be driven by a limited circle. Anyone who wants to drive this concept should be part of an exclusive club that might be too far to reach by most of us.
The Egoista's future was narrow and takes its inherent selfishness even further, due to it was some a kind of gift for Lamborghini from Lamborghini, and the gift-giver/recipient has no plans of selling the one-of-a-kind car. It will remain a part of Lambo's own collection, no matter how many self-absorbed megalomaniacs one-up each other with crazy bids to buy it. *** [EKA [21052013] | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | LAMBORGHINI | NEWATLAS ]
