Money =/= taste

I didn't think it could get much worse than, mf'ing snakes on the mf'ing Cayenne. But it can. German tuner, WaM (wheelsandmore), has aborted created some ridiculous interesting wheels for this CLS55. The chrome 20's are adorned with hundreds of Swarovski crystals. If that isn't good enough, WaM will substitute real diamonds. They also did some bumper work, added some carbon fiber. And well, a bigger price tag. Price for the conversion runs in at 175,000 euros. Which is like nine million US dollars. That doesn't include the cost of the car. Oh, they supposedly also managed to pull 600hp out of the motor.

Detail shots of the wheels follow

Money can’t buy taste. This is proof.

How long will it take the crackheads that steal sparkplugs to realize that those are real diamonds on the wheels, steal them and pawn them for crack?

I like it, even the wheels. It’s a Euro thing. :D You forget the interior pic with the debadged wheel.

atrocious wheels. atrocious drop height. I bet it rides like CRAP unless it has a mushy chassis. I bet the suspension geometry cries any time it moves with the car that low. Raise the car like an inch and it might look normal.

The only thing I don’t like is the wheels. And the interior is a little to monochrome. But the body kit stuff they did to the car isn’t bad at all.

I’d drink some Promethazine “drank” in the back seat while out on the town.

You got something to say ?
