Krasnov Igor Muska concept

See more pics of the Muska supercar concept

We were rather impressed with Russian designer Krasnov Igor’s ‘Muska’ supercar concept.

OK, it’s another one of those never-to-be-built Photoshop fantasties, but it’s a rather damned handsome one, we thought. A bit of Koenigsegg, a bit of Noble about the profile, plenty of Ferrari F430 in the front lights. Definitely some Lamborghini Reventon about those front air intakes, along with plenty of jet fighter. A tidy package, all in all.

That’s before we saw the rear end of the Muska. Take a look at that gallery. Look at its arse.

Really, Mr Igor? A pair of foot-wide tailpipes ringed with brake lights? A pair of tailpipes so capacious that you could easily lose small children in there?

At least, we assume they’re tailpipes. Maybe that petite little exit below the number plate is the tailpipe. Maybe those enormous holes are portals into a parallel dimension. Or jet turbines. Or evil eyes that wink at people driving behind you.

Whatever they are, Mr Igor, they’re not right. Back to your Macbook and sort that arse out, please. A couple of weeks on the treadmill should do it…

What do you think?

This looks like the kind of car that the Grim Reaper would drive, but in black.

Full of Russian subtelity. It will run on blood, mow people through this fron intakes, chew them and spit heads out through those holes. Obviously it will be made of two inch thick tank steel, have engine out of kalashnikov and once build it will invade Chechnya.

This car looks remarkably crazy, shame it's not going to be built. Looks like a F430 and a Reventon, but how big do the rear light clusters have to be

For some reason I first thought the rear mystery circles were just boyracerish subwoofers/speakers. Other than that (and the name), I must say I really like it.
