Not the worst custom job I've seen (looking at you, Masonry), but it's certainly something.

What's the point of having mountains of cash if you can't have something a little frivolous from time to time?

You know what? That's a good point. I never really considered that angle before.

The profile looks like a Panamera that has too much space between the wheel arches and the windows.  I think a regular Cayenne rear and a slight lift would improve the proportions.  I will take one either way in midnight blue or shark blue or ultraviolet or really any color the GT3 comes in.

Does Porsche send out cease and desist letters like Ferrari? Like I love minivans but not sure what I think about this. I don't know if it's the grainy pictures, molding, tracks, or what, but the lines of the bottom of the windows don't like up and it throws off the whole car.

He ordered a GT3 with matching paint at the same time, and thanked Porsche specifically in the video that I saw, so they're probably not too distraught.

I dont know what I was expecting to see when I clicked on this but a Porsche minivan was definitely not anywhere on my radar of possibilities.

I trust this more than if it was built by the companies that make stretch limos in the USA , 

And I would bet its on the Special Order list now to build them for  rich oil Sheiks.

EDit , from below ,.....Apparently is was built by West Coast Customs...(shudder).

If thats true it might be worse than the stretch limo builders !

I think it's awesome.  I've always wondered why modern coach building isn't more of a thing.  Especially now with the advancements in 3D printing.  The interior panels and door gaskets and little trim crap have historically have been where a lot of challenges with modifying modern vehicles crop up.  But 3D printers and scanners fix all that.  You can now literally print Door gaskets and upper C pillar trim. 

Now if we can just print Safety glass so we can make completely custom windows..

It was a joke. I'm sure Porsche doesn't care as long as he's promoting the brand and spending dollarydoos. 

As far as putting your kids in it, does anyone think it'll see the light of day? 

Also VW once collaborated with Dodge and we got the Routan. A proper minivan.

Because it's a lot easier to build a custom body when you're dealing with body on frame and no crash standards. Unibodies make life much more difficult, especially if you want to crash the car.

It's possible that EV skateboard chassis will bring back coach building, though.

Custom safety glass isn't that big a challenge AFAIK. It's just money.

Nothing that painting inside that sliding door channel black wouldn't fix.

That's nothing. It was reported a few days ago that an ENORMOUS yacht/ship arrived in San Diego harbor. Seems he bought a new one, this one at $300M - with an "M". Pretty ironic comments in this article about how he turns off its transponder because, you know he needs his privacy. He should know something about people's privacy...

I wonder how many blenders are in the trunk? Or if they put a mini FB server back there?
