That's a company that won't be around much longer. Ironically, because of economics. The cost of buying a Boxster, and doing all that work on it, must be pretty high.

The thing that will kill this company is the dramatic collapse of the exotic car market. They are asking $77K for that fake lambo, but the problem is for $77K you can buy a REAL exotic, like a late model Ferrari F355, or even an F360.

IMO they'll never sell that boxster/lambo for a profit. A year ago, maybe, but not today.

put a GT2 crate motor in it and have a very fun, reliable project car. Not bad!

A "Lambster"...for that kind of money, you can buy a nice GT3. At least it "looks" better than the Carrera GT fakes based on the Boxster.

Low mile 1999 360 6-speed can be had in the 60s now. Prices dropping like a rock. 575 not far off this number

The only thing worse than the car is the seller's mastery of the English language!

It's like a Bimbo: all show - fake of course - and no substance.

The automotive equivalent of a boob-job... and likely to be bought by a boob.

"Your search is over for a quality re-bodied car."

Darn, I did not even know I wanted a re-bodied car in the first place...
