Could you drive these with a straight face?

Money can't buy taste. Straight from Galpin. If you know, you know.

I've generally tried to work on the assumption that if you find the price of something egregious, or if you find that a design doesn't quite work for you, then it's best just to accept that maybe you weren't the target audience.

But in this case, I do feel justified in saying that these two are pretty terrible

The wheel and roof color looks similar to the traditional LR "Limestone" color, but a bit too yellow in those pictures. I prefer
Limestone to Fuji White actually.

Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. To me it just looks like a Beholder. Not sure what they were trying to go for, but if they changed the wheels/tires and repainted the headlight trim I could see a much larger market for it. But I bet they aren't trying to go for a mass market but a specific market segment.

Absolutely amazing ... incredible. Two Defenders which have undergone plastic surgery. Honestly, I cannot stop looking at the wholly unnatural, matched set of two.

Only in Hollywood, L.A., California USA would someone actually do this, maybe?

Barbie and Ken need them immediately........

They are actually Matchbox concept cars immediately before they go through the miniaturization process.
