If you’re the type of person that prefers to make their own path regardless of where the paved road ends, then this 2012 Rally Fighter might be the car for you. With 20 inches travel, nearly 450HP, and a manually adjustable dual ride height, there are not a lot of places that the Rally Fighter can’t go.

The unique part of acquiring a Rally Fighter is you are incorporated into the building of the vehicle. The team at Local Motors will invite you out to their headquarters to work with a team of experts to design and build your Fighter.

This particular Rally Fighter was built for, and is being offered up by one of the greatest NASCAR crew chiefs of all time: Ray Evernham. The 2012 Rally Fighter has been driven scarcely and boasts only 470 miles on the odometer.

What appears to be two-tone paint is actually a vinyl wrapped exterior that is as durable as it is eye-popping. By choosing to go with a vinyl exterior, Local Motors claim they save 12 pounds over choosing to paint each vehicle. Vinyl also gives the customer a blank canvas to make their Rally Fighter stand out.

Powering the Rally Fighter is a GM LS3 E-Rod 376ci all aluminum V8 that produces 430 horsepower at 5,900 RPMS. The T400 automatic transmission sends the power to a Ford 9” with a 4.11 gears. Incredibly, the Rally Fighter is also Approved as 50 state emissions-compliant!

While the engine is capable of sitting you back in your seat, the real winner might be the suspension underneath the ride. At nearly 70 inches tall, the Rally Fighter has one mighty tough suspension underneath it to tackle any environment you want throw at it. Open the hood and you’ll see King coilover shocks with piggyback reservoirs that are equipped on both the front and rear. But it doesn’t stop there, billet upper and lower front control arms ensure that no hill will get the best of the Fighter. This all combines, to give the Fighter an unbelievable 20 inches of travel!

At the back of the car you will find a reverse triangulated four link rear suspension housing the rear-end. 33-inch Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac’s can be found at each corner providing excellent grip regardless of the environment.

Inside the Rally Fighter you don’t feel like you are in an off-road machine. Instead you’ll find beautiful black bucket seats, air conditioning, and a GPS built into the dash.

You don’t have to be an off-roading fan to appreciate the engineering behind this Rally Fighter. It packs nearly 450hp, has an incredible suspension, and is a fun ride on or off the pavement.
