Mark Zuckerberg Builds a Custom Porsche Cayenne Minivan for His Wife

Mark Zuckerberg has found time to delve into the world of car customization. The Meta CEO partnered with West Coast Customs to design a Porsche Cayenne GT minivan specifically tailored for his wife, Priscilla Chan. While the standard Porsche Cayenne offers ample interior space to satisfy most buyers, Zuckerberg believes Priscilla could benefit from a bit more room for various activities while enjoying the practicality of sliding doors.

Zuckerberg shared the news on Facebook and Instagram, showcasing photos and videos of the custom SUV alongside a Porsche 911 GT3 Touring. He also personalized the garage for their Porsche models at their Palo Alto residence.

West Coast Customs is no stranger to catering to the desires of the wealthy, so they took on the task of extending the chassis and wheelbase of the Cayenne Coupe. They effectively transformed it into a limousine. This conversion included removing traditional door handles, adding sliding doors on both sides, and incorporating a larger rear wing. The SUV now appears to sit lower to the ground and rides on black wheels with yellow brakes.

Zuckerberg chose the Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT as the basis for his wife's minivan project. The standard model is equipped with a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine, producing 631 horsepower in its unmodified form and 650 horsepower after the latest upgrades. It is unclear whether the vehicle has received any other performance modifications.

Zuckerberg described the vehicle as “something I’m absolutely sure should exist.” While Porsche contemplated producing a minivan with the unveiling of the Vision Renndienst prototype in 2018, they have yet to release anything similar for production. Earlier this year, Peter Varga, the exterior design director at Porsche, admitted to being fond of the prototype, although he clarified that this was merely his personal opinion.
