Just a few days too late for our list of horribly modified supercars, this atrocity here is the new Bugatti Veyron Linea Vincero d’Oro from Mansory. What isn’t wrong with this picture? Excessive exterior carbon fiber, check. Faux-gold rims and accents, check. Ostrich-patterned, gold leather interior, check. Interior perimeter LED lighting, check again. Everything about this thing makes you feel a whole lot better about not being rich enough to afford something this awful.
Mansory has built one example of the Linea Vincero d’Oro and is hoping that there are enough tragically misguided individuals in this world to commission a few more. We’re hoping the exact opposite–pretty hard. [via Jalopnik]

Yes, Mansory is back on our home page. And you know what that means: Something awful happened. This something awful is called the White Ghost. Yes, a fun, playful name on the new Rolls, but the name is where the fun ends.
Eye over the exterior and you can almost be lulled into thinking the White Ghost isn’t half bad. It’s very white. It’s a Rolls. It’s hard to find much fault.

The Porsche Panamera isn’t exactly the best-looking Porsche on its own. Still, it’s a quality piece of automobile that took home the Bloomberg Car of the Year at the end of last year. Had Porsche had the same vision as Mansory, it probably wouldn’t have ever been considered.

We’re not generally huge fans of Mansory’s work. Just take a look at what they did to the Rolls Royce Ghost if you’re wondering why. But there’s something alright about the Mansory G-Couture. Sure it sounds like the name of a gay rapper. Sure you don’t really need carbon fiber woven all over top your jeep. But, then again, you don’t really need a Mercedes G 55 AMG either. So we’re giving a rare nod in Mansory’s direction here.

Not wanting Bentley to mourn alone after its Continental GT was turned into a strawberry milkshake in the form of the Vitesse Rose, Mansory has created an equally sinful version of the Rolls Royce Ghost. We didn’t think it would be possible to bring even more funkly to the Rolls Royce than the Yas Eagle, especially not a week later, but Mansory has outdone itself here.
Billed as the “unlimited luxury in a golden robe”, the usually understated Ghost gets a full-body gold rub-down, including the can’t-miss-if-you-were-blind gold grille and rims.

While Swiss tuner Mansory has been known for a few tunes that need to be forgotten (see: Bentley Vitesse Rose), their newly-tuned Panamera appears to be a more toned-down and sensible offering. The tune features an aerodynamic exterior created through the addition of components crafted from high-strength polyurethane and Prepreg-Autoclav-Carbon. The tune also brings lowered suspension, new sport exhaust and upgraded wheels. Inside, drivers are treated to a sport steering wheel, leather interior and brushed aluminum pedals. Buyers can also choose to add wood, carbon fiber or varnish accents. Unfortunately, not too much new going on under the hood. [via WCF]
