Looks as mean as, but about as useful as a case of herpes.

Perfect? for what exactly? yes it WOULD be perfect for African dictators/ south american drug lords, but should any company really be building anything for these scum? What else would it be perfect for? What else can it do that an armored S Class can't do. It definitely will not be able to out manoeuvre too much weighing that much. As for driving it through a (non North American) city or town, it would be easier to drive a large rigid truck.

As for your comment earlier about 3 door hatchbacks being unpractical, that is a very close minded and frankly, stupid, comment. A single person (male or female) who spends 90% of their time in city's and inner suburbs, and doesn't use a vehicle for work needs nothing more than a small 3 door hatchback, and in that case, a 3 door hatch is very practical.
