That car looks like it should be a Pimp-Mobile and asking way too much.

Cheers,
Larry

blech...
Chris,
I almost got banned from 968forums for saying that car looks like it belongs in a rap video. Turns out the owner is black, apparently I'm racist.

My wife adores that magenta/amethyst color combination but she knows that I'll never support buying it. I just couldn't bring myself to turn wrenches on it.

wow... that sounds about right though... (coming from 968forums...)

that'd be the problem for me too... we've got a dd ford fusion but i'll never attempt to learn about any of it's mechanics... losing money giving it to the dealer or indy but i just can't bring myself to it...

...racist...

lol. I dont mind the outside (smaller rims IMHO). But the inside is way too wonka factory for me. Maybe the pictures dont do justice. I have been looking at 968s... and this one was on the radar. Soon as I scrolled down to the interior pictures, I closed out the window.

first, if the Lambo doors had never been done and after dumping those fully horrific 19s for a nice set of 18" SSR's (or insert your favorites)..... and if interior had been highlighted in magenta (in moderation), then the result would have been markedly improved.... examples; the upper dash in black, black CS steering wheel, black shift lever boot, and then, lose the silly Porsche crests on the seats.... (and revert back to a black convertable top) — and you're home...... if all that stuff had been done in the beginning, the car would be a smash for (especially) for a gorgeous), African American woman. we have women with just the right skin tones for these exotic colors. just my 0.02....
