It is pretty common for Russians to transform their old Soviet VAZs and 20-year-old foreign-made cars into something they think is cool and attractive. Opposite situations are extremely rare and this is one of them! See this brand new BMW 6 turned into a Soviet-looking Pobeda!

Wow that finished car looks better than original.
Very skillful.
I agree. A modern car with a classic look. Great Job.
wow, very impressive. flawless work.
Interesting idea and nice workmanship except disgusting tinted windshield. I guess that even in Russia it’s not allowed.
That looks sweet! Top workmanship on the conversion
I bet the BMW was stolen
The Russians did not do a sufficiently thorough job with you Germans in and after WWII.
Very awesome. I foresee great potential in these old soviet design lines.
Personally I hope for my first car to be a black box lada that I can pimp with some chrome and leather interiors.
Not Pobieda but Volga.
That M6 is quite ugly as it is… Of course I like the end product much better than original.
“See this brand new BMW 6 turned into a Soviet-looking Pobeda!” — Volga, not Pobeda!
Wow. Really, really well done. BMW need to take notes, they’ve been schooled.
I agree, the end product looks much classier than the original. Hats off to the shop that did this, as they did an absolutely artful job at it.
Awesomeness!!!
it’s a Volga 21, not a Pobeda m21
BTW while there’s a few new pics here, and vice versa, this car was already featured on English Russia back in 2006. Looks like date code has been cropped out of the current pics.

Good catch, Hirsh!
Huh???
Never tought a volga looked so so exclusive, I mean it!
He took a good looking but emotionless (boring) german car and transformed it something very beautiful with true emotions!!
great work
The coolest idea I ever seen on this site! This kind of post erase all other post with crappy pimped cars…
I wish I have this kind of Volga!
WOW it looks so much better now. It’s classy.
The BMW design is not to my liking, but this, WOW!
