For one point, specify the model, builder, and base vehicle used to create this sinister limo.

Not precisely from Russia, but nearby.

This is interesting - this car is black and the only other pictures show a silver car. It is mentioned on many websites, but the maker is not quoted. So I can't answer the puzzle !

Maybe others can read Cyrillic - the base car is a Pontiac Aztek. You have to ask - WHY?????
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

If this car is the same as silver it should be named BIL, or something like that

2 of you gathered the appropriate pieces.  Yes, this is one of the BIL cars from the Ukraine.

Not based on a Pontiac Aztek.

LOCKED for del78.  You provided the correct name of the car, the name of the builder, and the country of origin. 

Now I need to know what car it was based upon.

Audi is good enough.  I will award the point and move the puzzle when I return from this long weekend.
