Armored Car Without Phallus. Let’s Save The Whales!

"One month ago Dartz presented uberluxury armored car with whale penis interior - PROMBRON... As the world’s resonance was very huge and Dartz got lot of angry e-mails from Greenpeace, WWF and also Pamela Anderson, Dartz make strong decision to stop their plans regarding such interior."
I'll give up the whale penis -- when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.

I like how they admitted in their own press release that they simply chose the most expensive materials without doing any research and then slapped the car together. It will take a special combination of super villainy, lack of taste and status insecurity to plunk down a mil for one of these bad boys.

I would never purchase a car from a company that can't spell "leather."
Whale penis leather is still in better taste than some sort of phony leather material to line the capacious interior of a discerning oligarch's armored land yacht.

Three bottles of £790,000 vodka and meanwhile I'm scratching around in my pockets for three bucks to get a pot of Tooheys New.

I really thought this would be an elaborate Yes Men type prank. I really hoped it was. But the truth is that nobody can depress me like the Russians.

If there's no whale penis leather interior, can we get Narwhal leather or Clubbed Baby Newfoundland Seal leather?

(Shit. Yes I know a Narwhal is a whale. But there's definitely some whales thay are still hunted legitimately by the native people of northern Canada. Why not buy some leather?)

If there were such a thing, it would have shown up as an option at one of those online custom corsetry/boot/flogger shops. What domina could resist lingerie made from actual cock? Google shows nuthin' on the topic apart from this Russian luxo-SUV. Hoax.

No love for your fellow sea-loving mammals, eh?
Anyway, I'm glad you said narwhals because now I can post this awesome video: (contains cartoon narwhals and PG-13 references.)

'It is inspired by the original playboy Aristotle Onassis' yacht Christina O, which had bar stool seats made from sperm whale foreskin.
Let's not rush to judgment. Are they actually killing the whales or is it catch-circumsize-and-release?

That website looks like it should be for a Serbian-themed private security firm with a penchant for taking over small American towns.
Also, their website is awfully unclear as to who actually makes the vehicles. Given their horrible web design, I'm under the impression that all they really do is fit fancy interiors to existing vehicles. Who wants to buy a million-pound vehicle from someone who can't afford good English-language proofreading, much less good web design?
And somehow, it comes as no surprise to me that this is a Russian operation. The Russians I've lived with (and the Ukranians, and the Bulgarians*) have been the most disgusting consumerists I've ever met.
*except for one. tanya, i miss drinking, complaining about capitalism and talking moomintroll and black metal with you.

The car is made by the company that produced armoured vehicles for Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Tsar Nicolas.
Heh. There's some serious delicious irony to be found in that. And in whale penis.

Whale Penis or not -- that thing is ugly -- and someone has to pity the fool who displays this vodka as art. Really -- as art -- until his brother in law drinks it during a binge and fills the empty "frame" with water. I think I will display a bottle of some ordinary vodka, just tell people it is low brow art.
