I think that if you like orange, then you need more. Add the wheels and the script so it ties in more with the GT3 RS.

I'd vote "no" on the jack-o-lantern. A large orange State of Texas emblem on the hood might look nice though...

Interestingly enough, the same post in the GT2/GT3 forum was overwhelmingly in support.

Cayenne owners are a breed apart I guess.

Needs more orange if you are going to do it. Rear spoiler etc.

Not really to my taste but if you like it that is what matters.

Let's leave our official emblems out of such tackiness

A nice set of burnt orange Longhorns might be more appropriate.

How about shooting for some corporate sponsorships? Baltimore Orioles? Cincinnati Bengals? Orange Glo?

My personal taste is that you ought to paint it like a race car only if you are going to drive it like one - and are willing to pay for all the constabulary attention you attract.

But this is the Cayenne board and, while we may disagree with your paint job, we shall defend to the death (well, maybe not quite that far) your right to gussy up your pig as you see fit. Many folks, including the manufacturer, have done far worse things to the Cayenne.

I like the Longhorns idea!

I like the orange mirrors on the Cayenne. Any race enthusiests would understand.

The NY plate on the front of the GT3 has to go.

I agree that the plate thing is annoying, but I've been hooked before when attampting to "get off the island" so if I want to drive it, I feel I have to give them less to hold against me!

Plate needs to come off of the front of the Cayenne too. As a tow vehicle for your GT3, I agree that the painted orange wheels, and orange Cayenne script would add very nicely to the orange mirrors--and the Cayenne/GT3 combo would look great together. Apart, though, the Cayenne would not have the contextual clues from the GT3 to pull it off as well, IMHO.

Nope, I was referring to the post by Plavan and his comment... what "he said" Obviously "he" doesn't know you're hardly a "he"

As for your commentary and those of others, I don't disagree. Kinda partial to total blackout on the old pig. BTW, like the new avatar.

I agree. Will definitely stand out and be different. I think it would look sweet with both going down the road the same time.
