Check out this track boxster with heavy body mods
Very nice hard top design. Nice shape and window. Not as elongated as the Zientop and the quarter panel window is shaped different from the Stuttgart Top.

It looks like one of those British tops, nice race car. I didn't see any Boxsters when I was at the track over the weekend.

Judging from the background, maybe its still there, just pushed back off the concrete once the owners finances dried up

I'll probably get flamed for this but it kinda reminds me of a 350Z with that top.

Yes, your right. That's where it's from. Don't have ANY after pictures of it. I spoke to Antonio, the manager of the shop and he said he liked the hard top design as much as me and will be making some more in the near future and they may become a regular sale item. Made from Fiberglass. He said he would e-mail me and keep me posted. I'm looking forward to an alternative hard top.

ding ding ding... I think I found it! :dance: Same flared fenders, same turbo-like air intakes, same wheels. The spoiler grew by a few feet, though.
Good luck runnin' from the cops now!

That looks like it! Man that spoiler/wing is anoying looking. Paint and body came out nice. I wonder why no rear quarter pannel window? Some type of track reason? Looks cool. I wish I had that top.

that looks like the one, but just bigger bench on the rear trunk.
that hardtop looks awesome, is it a hardtop, or completely molded into the body kinda coupe car?

It looks like it may be an early Zeintec prototype. The current version replaces the deck lid with a lift hatch, ala the Cayman:
Zeintec USA

Guess you guys did not read my post earlier. I talked to Antonio at Precision Porsche who made that hard top for a customer. It was a one off. But he plans on making more. I told him to e-mail me as soon as he has some made. I'm looking forward to it.
