$1.5M Russian SUV Features Diamonds, Whale Penis Leather
Jalopnik.com ^ | October 12, 2009 | Ben Wojdyla

The already bulletproof and wildly over-the-top 8.1 liter GM V8-powered Dartz Kombat T98 is getting a name change to Prombron and along with it will come a complete and brain-maimingly bourgeoisie upgrade with the Monaco Red Diamond Edition. The world's most expensive ultra-luxury SUV will debut at the 2010 Top Marques Monaco show with luxe features crazy enough to make a Maybach blush. For your $1.5 million you get the following features:

1. Ruby Red matte paint
2. Gold-plated bulletproof windows
3. 22" Kremlin Red Star bulletproof wheels
4. Whale Penis Leather interior
5. Tungsten exhaust
6. Tungsten and white gold gauges with diamonds and rubies
7. White gold diamond and ruby encrusted badges - grill, side and dashboard
8. Special edition Vertu mobile phone with "alert" button

9. Additional outside kevlar coating
10. Rogue Acoustic Audio System.

And, of course, of course -
THREE BOTTLES OF World Most Expensive Vodka - RussoBaltique Vodka, drink edition, same as in the RussoBaltique car when it visited Monaco at 1912.

We have a lot of questions about this car, most of them whale penis leather-related, but in the bigger picture, this brazen finger-in-the-eye raises a good point, so to speak. What makes a luxury vehicle? Things we used to think of as luxury - bovine leather, wood trim, high-end audio, etc., have become mainstream. Does it take exceptionally ridiculous material selection and bold ostentatious flair to define new luxury? Is it encapsulating yourself in a vehicle capable of taking a direct hit from a rocket propelled grenade? Does it mean emulating the wild excess of past luxury much like the Red Diamond is doing? Who knows. But we're betting the tzars would roll in one of these babies.

Another one of the RussoBaltique production line, this one is WITHOUT the Whale Penis Leather interior or the Gold-plated bulletproof windows

Didn't even know whales had penises.

The Russkies are seriously wild and crazy people.

Because sitting on the tip of a whale penis is what most straight multi-millionaires dream about being able to do once they have made enough cash?!?!?

Be careful after you wash it. If you rub it down with a Sham-Wow or something, it turns into a tractor-trailer. OTOH, if you wash it with really, really cold water you get shrinkage...and a VW Bug.

Yeah, but it’s really just really just plain ole bourgeois. The real luxury is in mink vaginas.

"Didn't even know whales had penises."

I'm sure I read somewhere, humpback whales do.

FYI, skin of a whale’s penis is the only piece of whale skin that can be tanned and made into leather.
