The Eagle Talon/Mitsu Eclipse front end is a direct bolt on?

Think I've seen this monstrosity in a previous thread but it's back on eBay & worth another laugh!

Hey now, it could be a screaming machine beneath the Batmobile disguise. Buy it cheap, throw away the body, and bolt on your own body.
As-is, I'm sure it turns heads...followed by loud guffaws, snorts and whistles. But the dude is doing the right thing by selling it and keeping the Testarossa.

Wasn't this thing maroon before? I think it's been around for a long time.

It's been around forever, has been on eBay for years and was maroonish in color. Notice the shift **** and gauges.

Also, notice how the seller writes the "paint is not a good paint job". Sounds like a quicky paint job was squirted on it.

I'm dying to see his Testarossa! Probably has a Fiero front end grafted onto it.

Isn't there a kit to put an aftermarket plastic "testarossa look" body onto a corvette chassis? That would at least be in keeping with that poor Porsche, they would make good stable mates.

Don't laugh. This is the car Porsche would have built had they not done the Panamera. Check it out on page 439 of Karl Ludvigson's Excellence Was Expected.
