These cars for sale are unique additions to any collection.
If you’re a car enthusiast, there’s a myriad of reasons to love or covet a car. Some of the obvious ones include, speed, luxury, engineering, beauty, power, off-road capability, and high-tech features. However, some of the more intangible reasons to have interest in a certain car might be nostalgia, or simply the fact that a car, for whatever reason, is strange.
Whether it’s an unsung model that only saw a handful of examples produced over only a year or two on the market, or it’s a variant that sports a less popular powertrain or transmission, cars that are simply “weird” can make underrated, unique gems and rarities in an automotive collection, and start unique conversations among seasoned enthusiasts. If you have an appetite for a vehicle that’s outside the box to enter your garage, these are some of our favorite “odd” luxury and exotic cars for sale listed on duPont REGISTRY.
1999 Bentley Continental SC
The Bentley Continental Sedanca was a version of the Continental that featured a unique Targa-style roof, combined with the Continental's typical wafting luxury and offering something in between the Continental coupe and the open-top Azure.
1995 BMW Alpina B3
While we might know Alpina for its transformation of the BMW 7 Series, for example, Alpina has also transformed other BMW models, like the 3 Series seen in this 1995 BMW Alpina B3 for sale.
2012 Jaguar XKR-S
A far cry from the elegant grand tourer that the XK was introduced as, the XKR-S features aggressive styling and impressive performance. It's an exclusive gem of British luxury grand touring to this day.
1991 Cadillac Allanté
Designed by none other than Pininfarina, the Cadillac Allanté had its body crafted in Italy, and then flown to the States to be finally assembled, with front-wheel drive and a Northstar V8 under the hood. Its contemporary, the Chrysler TC by Maserati, had a similar story, and the Allanté retailed for around $60,000, which today roughly equates to a staggering six-figure price.
2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Convertible
The popular miniature Range Rover is a compact luxury SUV that was originally launched with a coupe variant. In the later half of the 2010s, the coupe evolved into a convertible, which is undoubtedly one of the most intriguing luxury SUV models in recent years.
2004 Chevrolet SSR
The 2000s saw a wave of wacky, retro futuristic cars that were inspired by classic models, but the Chevrolet SSR stood out even among those. A pickup truck and a convertible at the same time, the retro-inspired SSR has become a collector-worthy oddity.
1980 Rolls-Royce Camargue
An innovative and ultra-luxurious car in its day, the Rolls-Royce Camargue featured many industry firsts, like a groundbreaking climate control system and a design that was a stark departure from previous Rolls-Royce cars. In addition, the Camargue was one of the most expensive cars on the market when it was new.
2002 Rolls-Royce Corniche Last Of Line Edition
For a long time, Rolls-Royce and Bentley were related, and both brands had cars made in Crewe, England. However, as Rolls-Royce was about to enter its modern era of BMW ownership and Goodwood production, the Corniche "Last Of Line" edition waved goodbye to that era.
2018 Mercedes-Benz G 65 AMG Final Edition
While the Mercedes-AMG G 63 is one of the most popular luxury performance SUVs, the now-discontinued G 65 variant featured a V12 engine.
2013 Mercedes-Benz G 500 Cabriolet
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class Cabriolet combines the capability and glamour of one of the most desirable and off-road capable luxury SUV icons ever made, with the thrill, fun, and style of an open-top convertible. It's a rare, valuable, and collector-worthy vehicle, especially Stateside.
