Black Friday Special - BOXSTER LAMBORGHINI COUNTACH
Just in time for the holidays - Boxster Lamborghini Countach - $12,000.
For the price of a used Boxster you could buy a used Boxster that has been transformed into a Lamborghini Countach! Its like getting the Lambo for free!

The stealth paint alone is worth it if you ask me.

Is that Seal Grey? If you squint with one eye, and keep the other closed, it looks pretty good.

Looks like it was made about as well as the fence behind it! Arrrk!
No wonder it is in the yard instead of on the street!

It would look great painted yellow and with 19" rims.
Good deal too.
The interiors though is where a lot of replikits fall short.
Only a very smart blonde would ever notice the difference though, so its $12K well spent.
Rather see this around than all the other characterless spam cans on wheels.
The car manufacturers always show fantastically cool concept cars but deliver spam cans instead. I'm beginning to think its all subliminal programming with a bait and switch at the dealership.

Hey... Sweet! A nice gold flake rattle-can paint job would complete the "look"

You can tell it's for racing because of what they did to the interior
At least the engine is easier to access haha

Parts would start falling off
of it after the first speed bump was crossed. The windshield angle looks even more extreme than the original lambo it was patterned after.

Oh for Pete's sake it would be just easier to work the overtime and buy a used one.

Murcielago it is 
Countach is much sexier, IMO.

Worst part about this car is that if a guy put the correct width rim and rubber on the back to fill out those massive wheel wells, the 2.7 could hardly make the car roll off a line, let alone get it to 60 in under ten seconds. Ugh!

I think I just threw up a little in my mouth. What an awful thing to do to a car.

Well, at least engine access from the top is a little better than the stock boxster!
