pretty cool modification imo.
with so many cool names for these types of body designs (station wagons, sport wagons, estate cars, shooting brakes, and now sportbrakes) there really should be more of them on the road. so much nicer looking then SUVs and crossovers! |

Really? That car is cool? It's almost like they said hey that Nissan minivan is sweet, let's build a knock-off. I don't like any of the Teslas after the Lotus, so my opinion isn't worth much for some, but that's the worst Tesla ever.

It’s just a one off for some dude who wanted to get his dogs in the back of his car. Won’t be seeing many of them around. It’s a bit square, but I quite like the rear arch.
Does raise a question of how much those dogs are worth give he’s modifying a very expensive car for them, lol. |

To my eyes, it’s a nicely resolved conversion. I showed the pic to my Model S owning buddy and he dismissed it, reckoning the aero will be negatively affected. I was going to argue that some wagons have better cd than their saloon siblings...... (think Volvo 850 )
Making one off or limited production estates / wagons from sedans / saloons goes back a long way. IMO some were really ugly, some amazingly good looking (AM Bertone Jet from 2013 for instance), and surely the Panamera ‘wagon’ is better looking than the normal version? OK, not difficult..... |

And no, I think in Buick's eyes you have put than in just the right spot. They spend all their time trying to convince you it's luxury and not an SUV in the 2 Enclave commercials I've seen. |

There’s a write up on the conversion in (UK) Autocar this week. Appears the owner has a Labradoodle, and they are not cheap, plus need lot of space..... |

Is a bit of a mash isn't it. Ford Mondeo grill, Mercedes lights.

The air intake below the front grill is hideous. A bit like a blackened-toothed Cheshire Cat gone wrong.

One UK magazine this week talks of the ‘bolder-looking grille’... That’s one way to describe it- I can think of others!
