Got $1.1m to spend, but a Veyron is too mainstream for you?

[Janesy B]

I present to you, the Youabian Puma. Yours for a cool 1.1m dollars.

The Youabian Puma was created with one goal in mind:
to standout and be unique.

It was conceptualized for those individuals who dare to be different than the ordinary.
Those who go a step beyond achieving and dreaming the best that they can be.

The Youabian Puma's design was based on feedback from
many wealthy individuals around the world who wanted something different and unique.
Wealthy individuals who were bored of owning exotic sports cars
like Ferrari and Lamborghini. The Puma's goal is not to be the fastest
in the world, but to be the most unique, just like its owners.

The Puma was conceived, designed, engineered
and built in Los Angeles, California.

It incorporates the most technologically advanced features offered in the automotive industry,
along with a fully automated convertible hardtop.

Having a laugh surely? Side profile is very similar to that of a Volvo C70...

[Devil2575]

Errrr...yeah...

I think i'd rather give the money to charity than spend it on that monstrosity.

[unpc]

I can see those flying off the shelves...

[IanMorewood]

Wouldn't give you $1.10 for that looks like someone left it next to the hob and its melted.

[nugget78]

WTF?!?!?!?! Got to be April 1st?
That is hideous...offroad tyres?

[MrBig]

Errr.... Oh.

Headline should read: Nutter glues a load of fibreglass st to a Volvo C70. Thinks of a price and doubles it. Eight times.

Looks like a standard Ford Puma that belongs in the "Badly Modified Cars" thread.

I'm just nipping off to my John Deere dealer for some new tyres for my £1m car.

Not for me.

[dapearson]

At last a car with tyres of a sensible profile!

The world's biggest and most expensive beach buggy.

Despite looking horrendous, when you're driving it I bet its a blast.

[leafspring]

I haven't read both links (cause I can't stand looking at it anymore) but I agree that it just looks like a heavily modded Volvo C70... looking at the roof, the shark fin aerial + the boot lid and the layout of the interior

Hideous beast

...and in the news tomorrow, Puma Automobiles goes bust.

(Hopefully).

It looks like something I'd create in GTA5 to be honest

I honestly, genuinely can't believe someone has gone to the trouble of "designing" that & once finished, put the crack pipe down, looked at it & thought "Oh Yeah - that's what I wanted".

It it a Volve C70, they haven't bothered touching the interior apart from swapping badges...

[steelej]

I've been wondering what happened to Leepu, looks like he was busy on this

John.

[McWigglebum4th]

But if you look in the gallaery it has a V8 sitting up front mounted to drive the rear axle

I think they have built a chassis and then dropped a volvo on it

[uncinquesei]

"most unique"? So some things can be the only one more than others are the only one? My guess is the designer, when not glueing bits of Tonka toy to sportscars, does all the PR on his Fisher Price typewriter.

[Vocal Minority]

Car's awful.

What is worse... 'Most unique'?

There are no degrees of unique. It is an absolute. It is or it ain't.
