:eek:

wow. those "brake cooling" ducts look like dents. and the luggage rack, where can I get one.

Porsche-O-Phile 04-30-2007 05:11 PM

Aren't those light. . . things. . . off of a Nissan Puslar NX?

God. What a waste of red paint.

Aurel 04-30-2007 05:12 PM

Look at it this way: you can buy a 3.2L motor + trans for cheap, and trash the car that goes around it.

This Custom Porsche has had thousands & thousands of dollars and man hours spent to upgrade and completely customize this one of a kind Porsche.

The trunk looks pretty clean.

djmcmath 04-30-2007 05:39 PM

Actually, it's only at $3300 right now. If the motor's in decent condition, that's a great price.

Aerkuld 04-30-2007 05:40 PM

Fugly
But as Aurel pointed out it's a cheap parts car, except that your name would be associated with it.

djmcmath 04-30-2007 05:41 PM

I mean, a great price for a 3.2L motor, with a Momo steering wheel and some gauges that I could "part out" to the Ricer crowd, I'm sure.








Ok, seriously, who among you _didn't_ picture yourself behind the wheel of that incredible looking car. Come on, own up to it, you know you love it!

Dan in Pasadena 04-30-2007 05:41 PM

Holy Mother of God, that thing is awful. I am totally a believer in never speaking an ill word about another man's ride, but this? Eek!

Gene Wilkes 04-30-2007 06:04 PM

I wanted to say "fugly" but someone beat me to it!!!!!!

Shuie 04-30-2007 06:06 PM

Why on earth didn't someone stop halfway through that project and just refuse to complete it? Thats awful. I don't care if it happened during the '80s. There is no excuse for that.

HardDrive 04-30-2007 06:10 PM

I saw that last week. Isn't there some way to stop people from using the name 'Porsche' on horror shows like this?

vbaron 04-30-2007 06:20 PM

The description says "a great conversation piece". No lie there! Our conversation is what kind of "piece" it is.

And the scariest part is that there are 7 bidders!

Actually, probably what happened...then someone with lesser skills finished it off. I could stand the car from the doors fowards, but from there back...just...terrible.

red-beard 04-30-2007 07:21 PM

OK, you go to all of this trouble but

you don't change the crappy door handles
or the windshield wipers
or the freaking mirror. That is a stock 914 mirroe.

Same crappy guages
same air vent controls

and 7 people have bid on this.

Maybe they are looking for the engine and transmission

legion 04-30-2007 07:29 PM

What is the base for that car?

I see no pictures of the engine. Is it mid- or rear-engined? It looks like it has a bastardized 928 rear end. The sides look like collision damage.

t951 04-30-2007 07:37 PM

It says cliffebay in all the pics.....i think it may be an instruction.....ebay, help me push this off a cliff!

a true travesty.

928 rear, 300z headlights, i can't continue....to much bile....
