We recently told you that the Porsche Panamera would be unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show in April, but it turns out that it has already debuted in Russia. This Porsche-powered four-door just popped up with a retro body that seems to have caught the whole automotive world by surprise. We thought that the last batch of pics were the real deal, but apparently no. Actually we are just messing with you. What you see above is another motoring mashup by Cardi. It's a '60s era Volga GAZ-21 body sitting atop a Porsche Cayenne Turbo. Russian design house Cardi claims that with 450 turbocharged, V8 horsepower at its disposal, the Volga Cayenne can jet to 100km/h in just 6.7 seconds on its way to a vmax of 155 mph. And just in case any passers-by are wondering where this Q-ship is from, Cardi has also applied a raher tasteful and understated graphic. Even the wheels receive a subtle reminder of the car's place of origin. Check out the gallery to see more of this Volga Cayenne. The interior, in particular, is gorgeous.
