Default 911 with parking cameras

Here's an aftermarket accessory I haven't seen before. I saw this 08 997 S Cab on eBay with front and rear parking cameras.

Pass.

Although, it is hard to tell whether the interior mods are worse than the damage to the exterior. This is a perfect storm of bad.

Really, if you can't park this car without a pair of cameras, you need a different car AND some lessons!

Stupid install. This can be done right AND integrated into the PCM. What an idiot.

Agree with p-cardriver. Seriously how hard is it to park?

Ditto! No wonder it's for sale.

I think it now qualifies as a "clunker" maybe they can trade it in for $4500 and some parking lessons.

Exactly. If you can't park a porsche then you probably should not buy one! This is even worse than the "bubbles" on the rear bumber of the early 996.
