Post Worst rice ever!!! A fake 993/959, but not what you may think...

How to take a beautiful car and try to make it look like a very ugly 993/959:






For one hundred bonus points, can anybody name the beautiful car that is hiding underneath all of that ugly fiberglass?

it looks more like a Panoz race car than a 993.

Somebody had some extra time on their hands, as for good taste thats still to be seen. It looked better as an RX 7....TargaEuro

As I split my driving time from my father's 94 RX-7 and my 68 912, I often wonder which one I enjoy most. Looking at that picture makes me realize I can't have the best of both worlds in one car.

Looks better than 95% of the crap the auto manufacturers are spewing. & I agree - looks more like a Panoz than Porsche

Not to my taste, but they did do a good job. I hope whoever it belongs to just leaves it alone now and doesn't go nuts adding all kinds of wings and crap to it.

I think its kind of neat; Not overdone or ridiculous looking, It's just a custom bodied Mazda.

If you had a rx7 that had been shunted or was rusty, that wouldn't be such a bad option
