And a Carrera GT is street legal! GT1 isn't.

I'd rather have a 964 Turbo 3.6 (it's my favorite Porsche, and semi-attainable).

Remember these are rolling research platforms, that's why they have the computers inside. I'd still take one.
No, no, not cobbled together like that. I mean aesthetically it looks like a hodge-podge of elements. That whole rear deck from the roll hoops to the spoiler area looks goofy. I think it may look better with the roof panels off, as it looks hacked with the panels on. That's really a stretch coming from me as I really do not fancy drop heads.

Trust me on this I'm a visual artist

The tough question isn't which parts are made of CF, but which parts aren't. There's almost no metal outside of the powertrain, suspension, and brakes.

20" rims.
Bright yellow calipers.
Dual fat exhausts.
Big rear wing.

I think you're right: The Carerra GT is a ricer.
