996 owner goes gadget-bananas!
This 996 is on ebay right now. The fact that it came from the factory in ultra-violet paint is a side issue at this point. Check out the gadgets he manages to stuff into the cockpit:
-Chrome skull shift knob -Emergency glass breaking hammer (mounted on dash!) -giant cup holder or extinguisher holder for front( also on dash) -some black disc of unknown purpose (also glued to dash) -extra convex rear view mirror on A-pillar -the numbers 9-1-1 on dash (in case he starts thinking he's in a Civic) -steering wheel cover -"Type R" pedal covers with dead pedal -additional mirror on driver's A-pillar -sheepskin neck cushion -rear seat fire extinguisher -another set of 9-1-1 number mounted in front of shifter (I guess the first was so the passenger won't mistake it for Civic) -chrome plastic Quad Exhaust "look" mounted to rear bumper -piaa-like driving lights in front (do the Xenons need the help?) -at least he has a giant first aid kit -- hopefully contains an aspirin. Here's the ![]() ![]()

Funny thing is that everything out side of those interior mirros, the cup holder, that what-cha-ma-call-it under the passenger air bag, the steering wrap and the shift knob is offered by PNA.
With the added photo (Those tips are not offered by PNA) all four.. ![]() I guess there is such a thing as bad-bling,

As per the ad: "2000 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 4 COUPE MILLENIUM EDITION - VERY RARE. "
--I concur: Very Rare indeed. Somebody needs to buy that just to un-do the insanity !

He's missing the Skoal can opener for the dash, the chrome bimbo mudflaps and the AAA spinning compass from my Grandma's Valiant...

Check out what else he is selling on ebay. That should explain his "creativity" with the 996. This guy needs to get back to blinged out Hondas.
