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

God. What a waste of red paint.

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.

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

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

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!

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!

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.

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

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.

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

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.
