Like driving skills, the unfortunate reality is that good taste doesn't always accompany wealth. There are just too many people out there looking to make the flashiest splash, and it is now confirmed that one more of those yahoos is living in Moscow, Russia. We don't know much about this frightening conversion of a Porsche Cayenne, and we're not sure we really want to. To paraphrase Fiddler on the Roof, we hope and pray the czar keeps this one far away from us.
Thanks (we think) to Graham for the unfortunate tip. If you're a real glutton for punishment, you can hit the gallery below to see the monstrosity from all angles. Just be careful if the driver's backing up while you're checking out the tail and standing in the enormous blind spot, which shouldn't be too big a hindrance on Moscow's busy streets.

Ya' nasty,
who ever did "you're fired!!"

Jalopnik makes a case for it being a Touareg, not that it matters on something that looks like that ...
Specialk @ Jan 22nd 2008 8:53PM
yeah that is definitely a touraeg

Big improvement if you put that front end on a Tundra.
ALEXDB9 @ Jan 22nd 2008 7:22PM

Aryan @ Jan 22nd 2008 7:22PM
I rather have a Lada
Alexander @ Jan 22nd 2008 7:24PM
Dear friends, this car was built exclusively for russian billionaires with only 10 cars limit. Technicaly its the same with Cayenne turbo (first gen), but all exterrior panels are changed. The cost of the car built by a:level studio was over 300 K $ (USD). So even if you don't like, you must be VERY VERY lucky to see it on the street.
P>S> I SAW and tried it once on the ROAD

So instead of buying over 2 Porsche 911 Turbos, they buy that piece of crap and make it look even worse?
Money obviously does not buy intelligence.

To Alexander: Seriously, dude... you should probably keep that to yourself. Driving an ugly car is nothing to brag about, even if some people have decided to pay too much for it. It is ugly and if I were to see one on the road, I would not feel lucky, I would feel violated.

If that's the job of a Russian billionaire, I can confidently say that rich Russian guys have zero sense of style. Money does not equal cool or good looking. If I saw that on the road, I would take a different route to get away from it.

Two girls, One Cayenne

It looks like that masterpiece of German engineering had too much cheap Russian vodka and threw up all over itself.
bfaukner @ Jan 22nd 2008 8:10PM
I actually like how it looks!...well maybe just the little skull on the back.
Jay @ Jan 22nd 2008 8:18PM
in the words of Prof. Farnsworth. "Oh my...."

It still looks better than a Pontiac Aztec.
