Status Design, a Russian tuning company, has taken on the Porsche Cayenne. They call it the body-whale, the images shown are just computer generated renderings and the real-life debut should take place by October.
The term body-whale is obviously meant to invoke some kind of marine-animal sense of sleekness and power but the design doesn't really seem to match that.
The kit is reportedly be made from plastic or optional carbon-fiber. While there are no engine modifications to the Status Design Cayenne, the new aerodynamics kit is easily enough to help differentiate the customized SUV from the standard model. Putting subtlety and elegance aside, Status Design has obviously decided to take the more-is-better approach to design with this iteration of the Cayenne.
Up front, the new bumper takes some angular elements from air-intakes seen on supercars and then combines them with what appears to be an Audi R8-inspired air-conditioning unit just below. There is also a new hood, with a pointed nose that goes down towards the front grille rather strikingly, and this is accompanied by some new front fenders.
Along with new side sills and some familiar looking two-tone panels that appear to have come in vogue ever since the Bugatti Veyron and Audi R8 adopted this style, the Status Design Cayenne also adopts one of the strangest looking rear spoilers we've ever seen.
Till now, it's still only a rendering that is due to be published this fall. What will be the result, we will wait to see. Source URL: http://carrevieeeew.blogspot.com/2009/06/porsche-cayenne-russianized-by-status.html
