We've all seen this car before. At least now he can get rid of it. It's a Frankenstein of a Carrera GT. I like to call it Stubby GT.

The worst part is the boxy rear windows. They do not flow with rest of the car. And to put Carrera GT on the back is just wrong.

It looks like a tremendous amount of work went into the car and from the pictures it looks like the quality of the work looks good. Too bad he didn't just tone it down a bit.

I recognize the 2nd pic. He used it in his last attempt to sell that piece of junk.

I remember the pic because the cars across the street are nice, which is in stark contrast to the monstrosity that's being sold.

Let's see, salvaged title, hideous kit, and current bid already higher than a perfectly NORMAL 01 Porsche Boxster S. How can you lose?

As for the 2 bidders being "suckers..." I'm gonna go with "friends of seller."
And the reserve isn't even met.

From the windshield forward, the car doesn't look that terrible, but behind that

IMHO, from straight on the front around to straight on the side (surprising me), it's not too bad.

But from there on around the back, I was looking for the right word for how bad the impression was that I got, and I could only come up with "squashed". It looks like a real car was shrunk and squashed and glued onto the back of a real Boxster.

We need an emoticon for "shudder".

But folks, we all know someone's going to buy it...
