Why should it be a 3.2? the '83 was the last year for the 3.0.

Thatīs all fine and dandy, but to me it is just another hot rod. A car should not look like something it isnīt underneath. IMHO of course.

It "looks" good but can't live up to it's looks.

A faux turbo possibly.

You might pay a premium but still have an 83 SC.

Lots of hair, nails and makeup. Mostly supperfical changes with no meat to it.
If you like bling and audio more than performance, nice car for a girl! Ouch

Not my cup of tea. Poser cars are the exact opposite of my taste. Some owners pay all their attention to making a car LOOK fast, and no efforts to make the car BE fast. I'd rather have a 917 that looks like a Yugo, than a Yugo that looks like a 917.

The cars get spanked by Hondas then they brag that they had a kill on a Porsche Turbo LOL. This car is really confused 964 front bumper and the 930 strakes just don't do it for me.

A bit too ricer-ish for me. Can you say that about a Porsche?

I don't even know if I'd say it looks good. Agree that the body talks bigger than the motor can back. Not my cup o' tea.

I like the ricer pedal covers. It does have an identity crisis, no question.
Seems like someone paid ($) a lot of attention to detail, but made some non-traditional choices.

I like the off center "Carrera S" on the lid.

The whole car is kinda "off center" IMHO.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
