UGH......

That poor car, looks like a Nissan Z got tangled with a 997, and used JC Whitney parts to fix it.

Ahh, the 80's. Everybody was into slantnoses....Gemballa, Kremer Brothers/DP Motorsports, Rinspeed, RUF, Blackburn & Daly, Air International, and a host of other lesser-known chopshops. Other than Porsche's own Sonderwunsch Program, I was never a big fan of the aftermarket versions. Ditto on this one.

Wow, I couldn't help but notice Toyo Tires as the main sponsor. Too bad we still can't get 305/30/19 from them here in the states.

It's much better than the Pontiac Fiero kit = Ferrari Testarossa.
