I saw an absolutely beautiful slantnose in the parking lot at work the other day. Even in great shape, obviously The Real Thing (proper patina, look 'n' feel, etc.), and in my favorite color (black), it just looks funny to me. I can't imagine spending real money on a slantnose conversion. It just looks off-balance, somehow, like it should have more "visual mass" at the front end.


Just my $.02...

PS -- Of course, right now I'm Porsche-less, so I'll freely admit that I wouldn't "kick a eBay hack-job slant-nose out of bed," as it were, if it were a great deal, but I'm definitely not thrilled about buying one, that's all.
