Is That…

…a whale penis on your seat, or are you just happy to see me?

I’ve never heard of a car quite like this before:

A Russian armoured-car builder is boasting that its latest vehicle has seats covered with “whale-penis leather”.

That’s just ridiculous. But I guess that’s the point. For $1.6 miilion, the world’s most expensive SUV also includes some other unique features:

The bulletproof windows are gold-plated, the exhaust is made of tungsten, the gauges are encrusted with diamonds and rubies and the exterior has a Kevlar coating.

The car also comes with three bottles of the world’s most expensive Vodka, RussoBaltique, although the website does warn prospective buyers not to drink and drive.

Apparently the corruption business is good in the ol’ USSR. No one who owns this car would be in a legal enterprise. The CEO of some big natural gas company ain’t pimpin’ this ride. You just have to picture some Russian caricature straight out of a bad movie driving this thing around.

And don’t worry, while the whale penis and gold-plated windows may weigh the car down a bit, they’ve made sure the baby can still get around:

Dartz’s armoured vehicles weigh roughly 4 tonnes, are powered by V8s putting out between 300kW and 400kW and are “rocket grenade-proof” according to the website.

American rappers have nothing on Russian mobsters.
