The LC's lines lend themselves perfectly to the shooting brake treatment.

Why do people even bother to spend the time to make up something like this?

When I think of a shooting brake, I think of recent Jaguars which were very nice. Not something like this.

I don't see how this car IS a shooting brake. A shooting brake is a two door station wagon. As far as I can tell this car has no access to the rear storage area at all.
This is a shooting brake:

Looks like someone took the rear window off a '60's Barracuda and the rear see-thru window from either a Prius or Hyundai Ionic & stuck it on the LC. It. Just. Does. Not. Work.

The LC is a truly beautiful car.

This isn't.

Probably more practical but man that ruins the look of the car. Not worth it IMO
