It clearly shows it on the German Fahrzeugschein/registration. Original Porsche - Werksumbau auf Turbo-Look und Turbobugteil = original Porsche factory conversion to turbo look incl. turbo bumper

"27 years with the sole owner". Aha. A guy selling $50 models for the last 18 years suddenly has a $500K car fro sale with unclear heritage. Yep. Listed on April 1st? Check. I smell something. Wait, wait... it must be bratwurst!

Red exterior and pink interior = faux pas. What a terrible combination

There are some odd choices. S body and S gauges, but non-S shifter and handbrake.

Drugs were plentiful in the mid 90s.

Seller seems to be unaware of the 10+ wide body cabs delivered to BHP. Seems like a pretty low spec car with few options common to the turbo on which it's purportedly based. What happened to the full leather interior?
Rarity does not always equate to high value. This is a good case in point.

Yes, his was one of the BH cars.
