Bufori: One of the World’s Most Exclusive Coachbuilders | Capturing Car Culture

Description

Bufori is a boutique coachbuilder based in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, known for hand-building highly bespoke luxury cars with styling inspired by classic 1920s and 1930s grand tourers. The company was founded by the Khouri brothers after Gerry Khouri began building his own roadster in Sydney in the mid-1980s. Production later moved to Malaysia, where Bufori’s factory began operating in 1998. Unlike a conventional manufacturer, Bufori works much more like a traditional coachbuilder. Its cars are largely hand-built to order, with extensive customization, composite carbon-fiber/Kevlar bodywork, and a focus on craftsmanship and old-world luxury with modern engineering. That makes Bufori a particularly unusual part of Southeast Asian car culture.
