To many plastic body parts and I shudder to think what my dog could do to that interior!

I am not crazy about the wing or the "wicked GTR" badging, but I could learn to live with it - that car is hot.

Interior indicates it is not a 997, but actually a 996 based car. A bit too much, imo.

These guys have an entire business based on rebuilding wrecks. That would be my concern. The cars look great, but what did they start with?

Their description says they started with an 04 TT Cab. So, they took an 04 and turned it into an 08. Neat trick!

Seriously,

If I was paying that much for a car, I don't want it to be a rolling billboard for the company. Porsche is fine, WICKED WICKED wicked is not. I am not "peeling" it off as well, the dealer can take $100 of my $180,000 check and do it himself. Seriously, people have that much money for such a classless, crass, and tactless car? It looks like my 16 year old neighbor and all his friends chose the colors, then designed it based on committee. BLAH! That thing actually hurts my eyes.

I bet your all gonna feel bad about giving that kit car guy hell over his creation. His is like a million times better than this thing. I think this was the same car that was posted a long time ago that was all primered and unfinished in someones back yard. The best part is the description... definately an ESL guy...

Why you are bodering dis guy? Confertables are fan to drive. He takes bad car that is in accsidant, checks braks, handeling, suspention to make safe. Then he put new wells, spear tire and very quality profecional instolation of body kit.
Now that it is convert it, he gets lots off complements and its good for the buisness too, but he has no time to injoy.



So what do you guys do? Make fun of him.


Damn, that was hard to type. My spell check just started smoking. Is that bad?
