Let's talk about the latest bit of automotive lunacy to come out of Silicon Valley, shall we? It seems Mark Zuckerberg, the chap who's made a fortune knowing what you had for breakfast, has decided to turn his hand to car design. And the result? A Porsche Cayenne minivan. Yes, you heard that right. A Porsche. Cayenne. Minivan. And to no surprise, the internet hates it, as is evidenced by the many, many, many comments under his post. (insert that WWII flashback picture here). That said, all of his cronies are lapping it up with an almost equal number of supportive comments, all from verified blue-tick accounts. Damn. This Porsche Cayenne minivan started life as a Cayenne Turbo GT, which means it's packing a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 with enough power to launch a small moon into orbit. But apparently, that wasn't practical enough for Mrs. Zuckerberg. So, Mark decided to call up the chaps at West Coast Customs - yes, the same lot who used to put fish tanks in Nissan Micras - and asked them to turn it into a minivan. The result is a Porsche Cayenne minivan that looks like it's been put through a taffy puller. They've stretched the wheelbase, slapped on some sliding doors, and probably added enough tech to run a small country. It's lower than a standard Cayenne, sitting on black alloy wheels with brake calipers so yellow, they'd make a canary blush. And as if this Porsche Cayenne minivan wasn't enough, Zuckerberg's also bought a matching 911 GT3 Touring. Because nothing says "I'm a regular bloke" like having a sports car to go with your sports-minivan. In the grand scheme of things, this Porsche Cayenne minivan is a testament to what happens when you have more money than sense. It's ridiculous, it's unnecessary, and it's pretty on brand for the 'berg. In other words, it's everything a proper car modification should NOT be. So there you have it. The Porsche Cayenne minivan - proof that with enough money and a complete disregard for automotive tradition, you really can have your Porsche and seat the kids in it too. What a time to be alive.
