If you can't fly to Saudi to see one of these, then I'm sure several will appear at the annual London 'Supercar Season'
Alternatively, they will start rocking up outside many Premiership football clubs as the underachieving, overplayed players seek a new way to rub supporters noses in it.
Repulsive.
You sound bitter.

That's not good for you.
And you are obviously the sort of person impressed by these I take it?
I would refer you to nearly every other comment which also are derisory about this horror.
By the way, I take it you never saw me play football? Thought not....

People who complain about others being bitter also use words like "hater" and talk about "the politics of envy", as if the owners of a £200k SUV are surprised why some people might think it's in poor taste. It's like ripping up £50s in front of a tramp then calling him a "hater" when he spits on you.

Horrible car for the worst people in the world.
I think Mansory should adopt this as their slogan..

Mansory - "Horrible car's for the worlds worst people"

Those wheels look like some sort of April fools joke. Otherwise from what we can see it looks like every other SUV with an in congruous but all too common "trying to look sporty despite being on stilts" sort of body-kit attached.

It'll sell to the sorts of people who buy "M-Sport" X5s but have ten times the budget and want to make sure everyone else knows it.

I like that; very fitting slogan for Mansory - "Horrible cars for the worst people in the world". biggrin
One upon a time the worst people in the world drove bespoke coach built maserati's and Mercedes 600's. They might have been corrupt, genocidal maniacs but at least the had good taste in cars.

As if it didn't look trashy enough already.

Proof once again that money cannot buy class or taste.

Looks ok from the front.

There's a hint of a wide arch kit though so Id like to see how they tie it together at the back without it looking stuck on like an afterthought.

If you're going to do ugly, you may as well go all the way.

What made you jump to that conclusion? The fact it would help your non-argument I presume?

No, I'm not impressed by these. I would say though if underachieving footballers are overpaid to the point they're all knocking about in these, they're probably not underachieving.

And no, of course I've never seen you play football, you're just some fud on the internet to me.
And I see by the number of posts on PH a that you probably spend all of your life making such comments to people you don't know.
Thankfully, I had a fairly successful sporting career, and then a successful professional career without having to resort to becoming a professional Internet insulter.

Saw one of the standard ones on the road the other day and I though it defined the new gopping.

But no, how wrong could I be?

Lots of carbon fibre. Because weight saving is vital hehe

I wonder what Bentley think of this? I suppose it's another car out the door at least.

Still has a rubbish name. I'm sure sure they're quite as good as Kahn are at ruining vehicles, but we'll see.

At least if you start with an ugly and graceless car, you can't make it much worse.

Oh I expect that they can!

You've got to hand it to the Mansory "designers", taking a car that could be easily improved with a stick of dynamite and a wrecking ball, throwing lots of money at it and still managing to make it even uglier was not an easy brief.

Well done those chaps (no lady could be as tasteless)

"somewhere between the liberal and the gratuitous."

Think who this is. It won't be close to liberal. Everything on the car will be looking at gratuitous in its gold plated diamond accented rear view mirror.
