This is new to me, so if some of you have heard about this (this was news about this time last year) you can just skip this thread. But for those who haven't, I just came across it and thought this was bad ass enough to share.


As a cheaply made, Eastern bloc econo-wagon, Russia’s old-school Volga, in stock trim, was about as hot as nude photo spread on the centarians of Brooklyn’s Polar Bear club. But add a few mods, including the interior and drivetrain of a BMW 850, and bam, it’s up against Milla Jovovich for World’s Hottest Russian Model.

Interior and 5.5L V12 from a BMW 850
380HP@5300RPM
260km/h top speed
6spd

eh, for former eastern bloc.

The Skoka or Tatra Rear engine/ rear wheel drive sedan(Think Tucker size more than Porsche/VW) was an interesting machine.

Looks like a Russian mobster ride! At least thats what I think...maybe I've seen too many classic James Bond movies.
