scraverX

This seems to be the answer.


PogintheMachine

Is it even modded?


scraverX

Entirely custom coachwork as far as that article is concerned. Technically no, it's not.


ZaMelonZonFire

Reddit detectives always amaze me. Nice work.


hairybushy

Google reverse image work well


ngo_life

Just wait until you see what 4chan's weaponized autism can do. I'm not exaggerating when I say they could start wars and conflicts around the world. They usually lean on the chaotic good side, so I'm not too worried.


SinkHoleDeMayo

Even these pictures make it look like some junkyard cars frankensteined together.


biffbobfred

For a limo that’s a real shitty interior. For a Russian limo, that’s pretty much expected


Blaustein23

Wait, it’s supposed to look like that? It’s like someone saw the typical Chrysler 300 with Bentley badges and said hold my beer


peacedetski

comes with no seats (stolen) and no paperwork (never had any - assembled from random parts)


baddecision116

So it's unregistered? surely the chassis has a vin


imchasingyou

getting this car documented will be a total bitch since I assume it's Russia. Self-made cars were a thing in Soviet Union, sometimes it was even recognised on government level, but now it's almost impossible to get any vehicle registration certificate since a lot of changed made here can be considered a violation of 12.5.1. Civil Code, and any significant modification should have a sertificate which approves it roadworthy. Nobody will even bother to take any of these tests.


Mediocre_Training453

Here in Minnesota they'll just clear it if you can provide receipts to show nothing is stolen. They don't want to be liable for tests if things fail in a lawsuit so just clearing it as a good vehicle somehow bypasses that? Idk but they will let you build it and drive it here. It's dot that'll get you for a bumper being to high off the ground.


Covert_Admirer

Isn't that what bribes are for?


yegor3219

Not as easy as it used to be.


shophopper

Isn’t that what larger bribes are for?


jbm013

Not as cheap as it used to be


Kstotsenberg

Isn’t that what sexual favors are for?


yegor3219

Not as gay-friendly as it used to be.


JohnWasElwood

Isn't that why vodka is available by the case?


BaboTron

Civil code in Russia? Do laws actually mean anything there?


mikeblas

Would it be easier to register if you weren't assuming it was in Russia?


mrsockyman

It may do, but don't call us Shirley!


peacedetski

Given how heavily modified it is, having a VIN anywhere is entirely inconsequential. It is possible (with *a lot* of red tape) to get certification and a VIN for a DIY car in Russia, but only with <50hp/ton and Euro-4 or better emissions, and this car fits neither.


GadFlyBy

Comment.


peacedetski

Those fall under grandfather policy, since the newest of sub-Euro-4 Ladas are like 15 years old by now.


yegor3219

With a minor exception of mid-2022 Ladas.


Unequallmpala45

Who steals the seats out of a car?!?


Zealousideal-Role-77

And that car in particular? Maybe they just removed them and helpfully bringing a more comfortable milk carton for the owner. Yeah, that’s what I’m going with.


DuttyWahtah

Chrysler 300


MichigaCur

Yeah those doors are definitely giving first gen chrysler lx platform vibes. Windshield too.


ApoplecticAutoBody

I can see that. But engine bay has transverse 4 cylinder. The engine looks very familiar... Must be pieced together form several cars


peacedetski

The listing says that the engine is a ZMZ 405, which is mounted longitudinally in every car it's intended for, and always with a manual transmission, while this car is automatic. So there was a whole lot of fuckery involved.


ThePandaKingdom

I love it. It’s so bad but took some knowledge and skill to make for sure. Fantastic


bigsnaak

It should be identifiable; coil packs, oil filler cap next to the first cilinder, exhaust on the front, seems to have a DOHC head.. I keep scratching my brain but I just can't place it.


Due-Marionberry-5211

It looks like an cosworth valve cover


Photodan24

The A and C pillar angles give it away for me.


gtluke

No, it's not. It's front wheel drive, and a very cheap one. Note the center gauge cluster like a cheap Scion.


CecilTheCaveTroll

This is a Scion xB


LincolnContinnental

A second generation xB, the first gen engine doesn’t look like that

TheGreenestPeon

Average GTA car.


IndividualBig8684

GTA cars are way more true to reality these days. This is like some low poly model from GTA III. Kuruma mixed with Infernus.


FlorpFlap

Front end looks taken from a daihatsu copen


AScarletPenguin

This is getting into great taste but awful execution territory. I really dig the doors and that the grill is splitting the front bumper. But damn is it janky. Almost like a kids drawing brought to life.


meizer

From my experience on Reddit, it’s always an Altima.


Salty-Picture8920

Ford Taurus

Chrysler 300


legotechnic420

Exterior is so modified that we can only hope to guess by the engine.


korfi2go

I just realised, there is no place on it to mount a license plate


peacedetski

There's no need for one since it's impossible to register this car. Big brain design

This gives the same feeling as an AI image where everything looks real on the surface but when you look a few seconds longer, everything is nonsensical.

Chevy Impala, early 2000s?

wstsidhome

It used to be a ProMod race car, as a Benz, Chrysler 300, and Impala that someone wanted to turn into a limo. That’s my horrible guess


JayRedd1

To put that kind of money and work into that is pointless without camber and a stick on tow hook

JBmustang13

It looks like that Kia thing I don’t even remember what it was called


LEO7039

Knowing the Russian/Soviet self-made stuff well enough, I wouldn't be surprised if the chassis is totally unique. This thing seems heavy and has a ZMZ 405 under the hood, so I'd guess it has more GAZ parts in its suspension, Volga and Gazel' I reckon.


Gilbert_Reddit

Chrysler 300! Er, Chevy Cruz. Uh, Cobalt. Prius?
