I mean, the fenders stick out kinda far, and the wheels aren't my taste, but it still isn't WTF (to me). I'm with the Trooper on this one. It doesn't make sense, but it looks pretty cool.
I guess if it doesn't make sense, then it is on the verge of WTF. I would have posted it in the Exotic/Desirables thread if I saw it driving down the road.
Those must be the HID license plate lights the NooB in the RL forum was asking about. 
As for the Escalazer, I saw a Z71 yesterday with an Escalade front bolted on very poorly. I wanted to snap a pic so bad, but it wasn't possible. It was definitely worth of this thread.

I think the PanameraZ looks quite nice, definitely miles better than the real Panamera but the reactions led me to put it in the WTF thread 
There's a shit ton of random LED strobes all over the car which puts me into an elliptical fit.. I couldn't figure out how to turn them off either since many of the buttons had Japanese lettering

I don't think there was ever a question as to our collective ability to come up with a reasonable explanation for how such a pattern manifested itself. The entire point of the thread is to make fun of self-inflicted automotive anomalies; hence my post.
BTW, here in Arizona, the default position would have been that he received a new plate at the dealership. He CHOSE to put his vanity plate on there after the fact. Context matters, neurons or not.

^ a turbo'd J-series in an EG is sick! the hole in the hood is necessary because the motor is too tall to fit in the bay and have the hood close normally.
the only WTF things I see are the ricer headlights, the 4-spoke wheels, and the Lambo doors.
am I missing something else?

Regarding the huge hole for the engine - if you're going to spend the money to do the conversion, is it really a huge additional outlay for a custom hood that would close properly?
this time video but thats true WTF and before anyone ask it looks like its Daewoo Tico or something else

Well, the front camber really isnt all that unbelievable. Probably custom control arms. It looks as though its at the limits of the axle range of motion though. The rear looks as though they made custom control amrs/hubs to get the extra camber. Since there are no axles, they could simply angle it however much they want

That way I can do lines in the back seat incognito as I make my way from strip-club to strip-club!
