Perhaps the dumbest $70 spent, but every time I fill up I wanted one! Ebay from China - I made my wife open the package so I wouldn't get the WuTang Virus.....

cheers!
I thought about it but it might look out of place since it would not match the rest of the thread in the cabin; this is what it would look like:

Dummy key in car color instead of the standard silver / alu.

LMAO too funny. Hey that price seems almost too good to be true..does the cap look like OEM Porsche? Did it come in the original Porsche box? Very curious because I might buy one at that price.

It’s a counterfeit. Doesn't mean it is a bad quality product though.

That is what I was thinking..due to location of item and price..just no other explanation. Not sure I would be playing around then with a knock off gas cap...

It comes in a Porsche box and all the Porsche instructions. Reasonable quality. It’s plastic, but so is the fake aluminum Porsche one. Essentially identical.

Thanks Zanotti. I agree, plastic is normal as the OEM is plastic as well. Does it have the **** to hold it in place while filling as well?

The problem for the owner is it's fake and you know it's fake.
