But, if you're going to spend $100K turning your $40K Z into a Porsche, why not just spend the $140K on a real Porsche in the first place?

Might be a little difficult to see, but this is one of those rare Chevy S-10 Blazer CADILLACS!

I guess the biggest question for the 350Zamera is which is uglier, it or an actual Panamera.

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

That looks pretty awful...

Mini has turned into the dumbest car manufacturer.

The original Mini/New Mini = Awesome

Everything else...very bad.

The ZPanamera looks OK, but it just shows that people with lots of money get bored very easily...

^ 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?

Lol! Aren't those enough (the headlights, the wheels and the doors)?

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?

The only good thing about running stupid camber like that is you never have to worry about curbing the wheel when you park.

I swear there must be 5th wheel mounted on the middle of the rear axle or something. I keep watching the video and I don't understand how that car moves.

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
