Objection! Burberry edition Maserati Quattroporte spotted in Saudi Arabia
Click above to view more of the Burberry Quattroporte
Think "Maserati" and "Burberry" and there are so many ways this could have gone classy. But this isn't one of them. Seems some fool with too much oil money and not enough taste has plastered his Quattroporte in what appears to be perforated Burberry-plaid gift-wrap paper. If this were some sort of new camouflage on a test mule for the newly revised Quattroporte, we'd say it was effective (who could focus on the details in between the bouts of vomiting?), but somehow we don't picture the Italians doing anything this horrendously tasteless. In fact, we'd encourage Maserati to track down the owner and repossess the vehicle immediately. Click on the thumbnails below to see more of the Burberry-spangled Maser... if you must.

Take one part undeserved wealth, two parts bad taste and two parts luxury nameplates. Blend until bitter and unsightly...

What is ITT?
People keep calling others racist here, but I don't see any. there's a lot of cultural bias and prejudice, but no racism.

So many less advantaged people with taste could own this car and treat it right, and who does it go to? Some rich guy that paints it to look like a used car salesman's suit.
Truly, our world is faced with the presence of evil. Either that or God has the eyesight of Stevie Wonder.

Nasty. But you know there's some rapper out there thinking "Damn! Why didn't I think of that!?"

The car has Abu Dhabi plates.

the license plate indicates Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates ... not that it matters because it is hideous no matter where it is

This is in the UAE not in Saudi Arabia
and exactly in Abu Dhabi
I have seen it few months ago and the owner is 20 years old or less as i heard!

Hmmm. 20 years old? I guess that explains it.
How can it be legal to drive this thing with the headlights covered?
This is like putting a beautiful woman in a niqab: it should be illegal.

@ Dolemite:
Look closely at the headlights and turn signals, and you'll see that very small parts of both are left uncovered. Kind of reminds me of military vehicles in WWII whose lights were almost entirely painted over except for a little spot. FWIW. And...at least this wasn't a Woody conversion!
