WHAT!!!!!

That looks like the rear of a factory DP Porsche!!! These cars are highly sought after. I would love to have one sitting in my garage.

DP made 935 race cars for a while with horse power in the range of 720!

Not only does it look like a DP, but it is the same company that manufactured the bodies for Kremer, including the K3 that won Le Mans in 1979...
And that rear wing is a beautiful piece. It is longer to the rear than the factory item, yet uses the factory rubber. If anyone has one for sale let me know...

I don't know, but I think a lot of cars on (here's the in English search)http://www.mobile.de/cgi-bin/search.pl?bereich=pkw&sprache=2 are quite good and well looked after. It seems that in Germany people really look after they're cars, thus, one sees some quite nice - and well priced - stuff, plus the German TUV inspection has very high standards, so cars are truly roadworthy. Always the odd nasty be-spoilered thing (but the above is DP Porsche replica), but check it out. Obviously very hard to export to the US but handy if you're in Europe - I know people in the UK that source stuff like 911s and BMW M3s (E30s) in Germany all the time: that's where you go for the nice ones.

poor thing, if it's a 935 great, awesome car, problem is the first car puts on all that ground effect BS and ridiculous rear wing which probably isn't functional, what's underneath?, a smokey, head stud pulling, chain tensioner failing, leaky exhaust roller, if you're going to look fast, boy racer look, back it up with a 300,400,500hp engine, otherwise you look like the slammed honda civics who pretend to be sports cars

2.2L? Ouch!
The bodywork is Kremer. Those cars were brutal street machines. I think B.A. has a word or two about them in his books.

I wouldnt mind having that car in my garage but driving it around town? that's a different story.

It looks too extreme and too "concept" to actually drive around or use as a daily driver.

In fact, it looks a little bit like that Lamborghini Jalpa car
