While I don't really care for the Dub style wheels on the convertible, these are both really cool cars to just sit and look at.

Now I have to go do some research on the Volga car make.

It's a Russian car built on a BMW 850CSi chassis.

I like the hard-top, but for some reason the convertible reminds me of an early 2000s T-Bird.

They have a Studebaker/early 50's Chevy/49 Ford vibe about them.
I like the design!

I agree with the references to early "Baby Bird" fifties T-Birds, mixed with some Studebaker Golden Hawk, and a little 2000's Retro T-Bird, stirred in for flavour.

Not your Babushka's Volga, for sure.

I also see the Studebaker and the last T-bird.

And you can't say Volga without thinking of this song:

Styling is a personal choice. It's OK and I might like it a lot if, it will stop on a dime (or ruble in this case) and corner as well as a Porsche. Probably asking too much but, that's where my interest lies.
