BIG PIMPIN option code

Does anyone know the option codes for the very rare "BIG PIMPIN" option package? It's a very snazzy upgrade and I might put them on my boxster. Let me fill you in if you don't know what that option comes with. The main piece in the package is the alligator print top. Porsche knew the owner would always be so proud of having that top that they painted it to the top frame so you couldn't lower your top.


The next item in the package comes with authentic Gucci seats. So you can enjoy your seats at night, Porsche also installed Walmart LED cable lights under the dash. Sorry I didn't get a picture of the lights.

Because Porsche speculated that you would be sitting at an angle as you drove your ride and you're probably wearing your hat at an angle. They went ahead and made your muffler at an angle too.

Porsche knew that whoever would order this package was not completely about looks. They would care about the environment too. So all Porsches with this option use environmentally friendly pond water for coolant

I almost forgot about the wheels. It had real HRE 20 inch wheels on it at one time. I didn't believe the guy I bought the car from at first. He said he had the back two wheels inside his shop. He said the front two got stolen. He brought me inside his garage and he was correct. Real HRE wheels! I might have rushed to judgement that he didn't know what he was talking about. In my defense, he did have $$ signs on his teeth. Not your typical porsche owner.

I'm one of your loyal customers, but I don't think there is anything I need on that car.

It reminds me of the time I scored an 04 top and frame. I sold my plastic window top to a guy who was molesting a 98 Boxster. He had removed the interior and put all the pieces in boxes and 5-gallon buckets. I didn't see any labels or any visible means to identify which part went there. He showed me pictures of the lizard-skin that he was planning to use on the interior.

I figure it was his car. Plus, he paid me cash for the top and frame.

Arg. There are laws against everything else (or so it seems)...why not car abuse? Punishable by death, of course.
