The Tomahawk was a vehicle that Dodge showed at the 2004 North American International Auto Show in Detroit as a one-off concept, and that was not street legal. DaimlerChrysler then announced that it would sell hand-built reproductions to order, and as many as nine are thought to have been sold, through the Neiman Marcus catalog at 555,000 US dollars. Its look rests on the 8.3 litre V10 engine of the Dodge Viper, which gives about 500 horsepower, and on two front and two rear wheels set close together, each sprung independently so that it can lean into corners like a motorcycle. Experts disagreed on whether it counts as a true motorcycle, and Dodge described the copies as automotive sculpture for display only.
