Unfortunately that whale tail and the exhaust system do nothing but hurt the car. If you want to get top dollar take that horrible spoiler off and put a stock muffler on it, that will get you an additional $5,000 or more out of it.
Probably switch the bumpers back too... If they are steel probably ok but fiberglass I would replace with stock units.
Given all of the unique features I would not be surprised to see this car fetch $100K or better if put back to stock configuration~
Not much of a red man myself, but it does look good!

I consider the Sporto a con mainly because of the internal issue preventing it from going into Park. As mentioned my local Porsche dealership will not open the trans because they do not have someone who can do it, or do not want the risk of starting something they cant finish or get parts for.
The birth certificate states that the Trans is not listed, so a swap would not affect the car in terms of numbers matching if i or someone else put in a manual shift later on.
The car is def. between red and pink.. really noticeable when next to a red car.
I don't think i would invest in putting it back to stock at this point, that could be for the next person to do. I understand and appreciate that feedback tho 8)
