It's got to be April fools day, especially since the front fenders and doors are aluminum, and the rear bumper cap is plastic.

OP, you had me for a minute! Mostly because I can see someone spending stupid money for that look, but also because that green is stunning! Anyone know if that's a real green & what that color is called?

Looks like Aventurine - an old 993 color they brought back for the 992.

Obviously a joke. But reminds me of guitar players that pay up for “relic” guitars.

I thought Aventurine was more gray than that. Maybe it's the lighting, but it's absolutely gorgeous. Thank you.

They were having a tough time keeping a straight face during the first one. Not so far fetched if you can pay to get your fingerprints on the hood.

No kidding, that really bugs me. Take a brand new guitar, drag it around on some gravel and throw it down the stairs, charge 2X the price.

Ah, what pranksters these Germans are!

The also pulled an April Fools joke about changing names from VolksWagon to VoltsWagon to motion their movement into the EV.
