Posted this years ago on the barf, and found myself thinking of it today… Fucking love this car The Volga V12 Coupe is hand-built by a Moscow firm called A:Level. The body styling is straight from the ’50s and finished in black. However, don’t let the styling fool you… the underpinnings and interior are from a BMW 850, and the engine… that too is a BMW V12. CRAZY! The V12, paired with a six-speed manual gearbox, produces 380bhp and 406lb ft of torque, and accelerates this heavy mongrel from 0-60mph in 6.3 seconds… that’s no 1950’s mobile!

“A:Level is essentially a custom car business, funded by foreign investors keen to grab a share of the increasingly-lucrative Russian car market. Moscow has a keen petrolhead scene, with illegal street racing, tuning and modifying popular pastimes, and the BIG seems well in keeping with that culture, if rather out of place in the relatively genteel context of Geneva.” fawkn Balla ---
