I think the longhood sedan shown above was actually a factory prototype.

When I first saw this thread title, I thought to myself "There are no ugly Porsches."...oops, I was wrong.

There is a really cool story behind that 4 door 911. It looks odd today but think about what was coming out of Europe in the 1960’s. Citroen, Renault, Fiat, and even Mercedes had some pretty questionable styling cues in that era, which is perhaps why we don’t see many of them getting restored like American cars of the same era.

Wheels and color aren't going to fix that. Sorry, way too overwrought.

Yeah, I think those RWB Porsches are WAY overdone with their goofy clown flares and wings.

Looks like a cross between the Batmobile and a hearse.
