Meta Mogul Makes Minivan for Missus 

Words NZ Autocar | Images Road&Track, NetCarShow

Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s founder and CEO, has had a Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT modified into a minivan for his wife. 

Road&Track says the Facebook CEO asked West Coast Customs to manage the project, resulting in the first Porsche minivan.

When Zuckerberg’s wife, Pricilla Chan, said she wanted a minivan he decided on something special. Using a Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT SUV as the basis, a midsection was added in, featuring electric sliding doors.

While Zuckerberg was at it, he bought a manual GT3 Touring and had the chop shop paint it in the same slate gray. So his and hers matching wheels, kind of.

The minivan by the real Porsche company looks a little more coherent, possibly.

Porsche may not have sold a minivan but that didn’t prevent them from giving it a shot at one point. In 2020, the company developed a concept minivan called the Porsche Vision Renndienst. It was conceived as a “family-friendly space concept for up to six persons.” The German automakers made a full-sized scale model of it, in red no less. Zuckerberg’s Cayenne Minivan looks bigger but this is arguably more coherent.

Hmm, reckon this one will probably handle better than the Zuck's, though perhaps not as quick.

Zuckerberg is no stranger to getting his wife custom gifts. Earlier this year, he commissioned a seven-foot green garden statue in his wife’s likeness. We reckon the Porsche Minivan will be more practical, if not quite as arty. And to call it a minivan just seems wrong. Porsche Cayenne GT Turbovan perhaps?
