Info on this Porsche needed

This is strange and I can't find anything to match the description. It's advertised as a 2000 Carrera GT, but it's obviously not the million dollar Prototype that was built in 2000. It also says in the ad 4 wheel drive, but then it would be a Carrera 4S.

There is a small GT emblem on the rear passenger side.

I think it's just a 996 with some fiberglass bolted on.

Any thoughts?

It looks like a 996 just clapped-out with a lot of add-ons that were applied in poor taste.

That's what i figured. It's popped up before with no takers. 55k riyals is about $15,000 so if it didn't have all that fiberglass on there it would still be overpriced.

Modded 996 C4. The all wheel drive doesn't necessarily indicate C4S. You could get the AWD in the narrow bodied car.

Tacky. Perhaps he felt something was needed to dress up the exterior styling (or as Aaron Kaufman refers to the shape - "looks like a suppository").
