I hope that all of those that are throwing stones ensure that their glass houses are clean.

good eye, that and the 3rd brake light on top of the glass.

I think it's fugly - an example of more money than taste - but they did a nice job of paint and assembly, at least from the pics. I've even considered functional hood vents.

much nicer than the red porsche-ferrari hybrid from few days ago..

obviously 959 concept doesn't work on 944 as good as it does on 911.

it's ugly becouse it wants to be ferrari, too bad he didn't extend it and used 944 or 968 back end instead of this buttugly ferrari *** lights.

I would never have believed you, if you told me one of the ugliest cars I'd ever see was 944 based. But it's true...

I wouldn't want to see a 944 like that! I'd become depressed and suicidal.

I think the ferrari type tail lights are lame, even more so the fact that the reverse light is on the right like that. Must look strange at night with two lights on one side and one on the other.

Default Pimped his ride

You guys are forgetting that pimps have to have rides too. I will admit that the red one is better executed (Execute is the operant word here).

Hey, I make no bones about the condition of my car- bad hood paint, need to fix the pizza delivery boy impact (his fault) on drivers front fender and valance. I have an awesome deal on the entire turbo front bodywork(EVERYTHING), but the shipping is a killer, and with the new baby, I may need to PM the guy and start sending him installments.

However, I think the point is that is poor design- see sig.
