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.

Garage
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?

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...

I'm with SigmaPi -- that car looks like a juvenile project, and also their use of the English language in the ad seems to be on par with everything else they produce.

This car just beat the ruf rk spyder as the most beautiful car I've ever seen.



Too bad it's a salvage title. This car is stunning.



EDIT: Umm...


Did anyone read the red writing after this?

By bidding on our auctions, you are also agreeing to pay for all of our Legal Fees, court cost, investigative costs, travel and hotel expenses, when the court finds you guilty for Breach of Contact under the UCC. And we are so sick of you bidders that just bid and come up with your creative excuses that we are going to sue each and every one of you and go after your bank account, cars, property, paycheck liens anything we can get our hands on and we will attach interest as well. So, if you don't have the money to buy our cars or don't have the intention to buy our cars DO NOT FREAKIN BID!!!!






LMAO, what kind of credible company says stuff like THAT?


LOLOLOLOL

Front end looks like pure childish rice to me. Or since its German I guess it would be sauerkraut. Things I see wrong.

1. The front bumper does not seem to align correctly.

2. For $180,000 I would expect a well written out ad as opposed to something that I can not even read all the way through without half a bottle of Tylenol and a 13 year old myspace junkie for use as a translator.

3. Although plenty of photos were presented, I would expect better quality images than what they have up. Plus I would want closeups of the fitment and paint.

4. These people sound like little kids making their ads look foolish. Might as well type your ad in leet speak (i.e. 1 h4Ve H3r3 a P0r5cH3). Come on people why cant you use paragraphs and regular black writing on white background so that I , as well as others, can actually read what the hell it is that you are trying to sell.

5. $180,000 salvaged car? Sorry buddy, it just is not going to happen. Well, then again I guess there is a sucker born every minute.
