It looks nothing like that Gas cap in the picture. I also must say I agree it's kind of a stupid buy.... If it was metal it would add weight and you only see it once or twice a week. However I bought it because I was boared at work and it looked cool. None the less nothing in my life that I have bought on a wim (there has been plenty) has ever pissed me off like this!

What's it look like, maybe they sent the wrong one?
Re. tire gauge. Its still inaccurate without the tick marks. The old Porsche gauge without the hose was better. I think this one is made in China and is just a gauge with the logo on it. Porsche probably had nothing to do with it. You can see by the picture that it doesn't even reset to 0.

Sorry but i just have to laugh, i mean its a gas cap... who cares??? If they had the external race car type set up like on the viper, audi tt, eclipse, ford gt, etc... MAYBE it would be worth 150. Im not one to worry about money much, but I really hate stupidity, which would include paying more for something, when you can get it for less without even trying... After all its part of how the rich stay rich...
crap like this makes buying a ferrari more attractive every day...

Biggest waste of $40. Now I use a cheapo digital I got from Costco. Here's a pic of it...
