My Boxster is definitely not an untouched and clean example, so I would say here:
To each their own.
Here, the best I could do in 5 mins:

My father and I built that car.

The headlights are mercedes e class, and the fenders are 100% metal. There are many small custom touches, like no third brake light, genuine 550 spyder grab handle, and more I can’t reme offhand.

I agree the retro theme went overboard as rear grilles, headlight stone guards, James Dean there () and taillight covers are a bit much.

However, you must remember this car was built when the 986 was a couple years old and a common complaint were the “fried egg headlights”.

This is the car that got me into Boxster. Coincidentally, my own Boxster is Artic Silver

Anyone into off-roading? Maybe the guys on Road Kill would like it - they seem to have a desert fetish.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Wouldn't also be a Forsche if you stuck a Bronco body on a Porsche chassis? Or maybe that would be a Pord.

I won't say that the thought of building a 924 Safari *hasn't* crossed my mind, but yikes...you gotta draw the line somewhere.

Want a puzzle that comes with all the pieces and maybe a few extras?

Seriously I would love to get this, but can't keep up with my current project list.


Tip: Don't buy a Boxster that "ran great when it was taken apart to repaint."

I find the car very unattractive.

A bad idea and even worse execution.

Lowballers stay away. So don’t even think of offering below $100k!

Darn...my budget will only allow $99999.99. Guess I won't be submitting an offer...
