VW wheels and steering wheel. Crude, cheap dash. Simply horrible. Thankfully, a real car wasn't cut up. At least you'll be able to "keep up with traffic".

It's toss-up between that car and the eBay "Vanilla Ice Gemballa Catastrophe" that was mentioned in a previous thread.

Wider is Better

356...359...just numbers. They repeatedly tout their "attention to detail", too bad attention to accuracy was not included.
They also sell Spyder kits, and I am sure they are working on a GT kit as we speak (on a VW chassis, of course).

 ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!! I really love the close up shot's of the wheels. Comparable to some of the polished Fuchs threads.  I can't beleive the thing has as many bids as it does! Insane!

"we all know the real essence of driving one of these classy little Porsches is not speed, it’s a driving adventure, a way of life..."
Um...no really...it is about speed...

Too big to fail

I've seen much worse. The A-chassis components really make it look like a toy car. A nice set of Fuchs and a 930S steering wheel and it would be presentable, in an 80's kit-car sort of way.

From reading the title info, it sounds like a kit, from top to bottom. I don't think any real Porsche parts were hurt during the contruction...

This thing was on eBay at least once before.
God awful. Really can't get over the stupid VW wheels and the stick on plastic emblem on the el-cheapo steering wheel. (you can buy the stickers in bulk on eBay).
