Ferrari Station Wagon

No Joking here people.

This is for real.

This Amazing car is rare Ferrari 456 Venice Station Wagon, limited-edition vehicle designed and built by Ferrari styling house Pininfarina for the royal family of the Sultanate Of Brunei. Featuring four doors, a proper backseat, a hatchback, and a 20 cm longer wheelbase, this vehicle is similar in size to a BMW 5 series wagon.

There were seven of these made for the Sultan of Brunei . This is just one of them. There is also a Ferrari 456 four door saloon in his collection.

Does God take requests for rebirth? Man, and then they say its a Dog's life, I would be one anyday if thats what they get driven in. But a nice looking set of wheels however the side profile doesnt go too much with the frontal looks. Back end is quite nice though.

Ferrari and station wagon just does do it for me.. IMO, it looks pretty sad.

ha ha what's next a Ferrari Hybrid? That looks like a streched cross between a Supra (Toyota) and a Palio.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it BAD, I'll say this:
It is very, very unusual......a little too unusual for my taste.

Ferrari's aren't meant to be cargo movers. It's just not what they're for.

But interestingly, Ferrari have done a good job of converting their sports car into a station wagon. It looks pretty okay....out of place, yes, but not too bad!

But that's just my opinion.

The rear looks like a Volkswagen.

I'd like to know what goes on in those illustrious minds when they think of such contraptions for themselves.

The next thing we would probably expect is a Cab/Truck version from Ferrari .

I think I will commit suicide that day.
