Default new tow rig!

I posted in the gt3 area as well...

orange calipers? spoiler?

What are the thoughts?

I ended up not going Transsyberia, but this one should do

And BTW I am in the "not calling it a pig" camp.

Thoughts are that those orange mirrors only look right while parked next to the GT3. Otherwise, it looks like someone ran out of paint. Very unbalanced, or there's more orange on that pig, err, Cayenne somewhere?

How about orange grill, orange wheels, orange spoiler and, oh yeah, a big flaming orange jack-o-lantern on the hood? Sort of a Cayenne big-bird Trans-Am look?

^ Agree on the first 3 (grill + wheels + spoiler)!

Orange wheels + orange "Cayenne" script will set it off nicely.

Then, any Porsche owner will "get it".

It is always amusing to post. Nothing personal

It is certainly not something most people would understand (the car sickness thing). I come to these forums just for that - to see how far out I am (which is not very) and commune with others similarly afflicted. Don't tell me the Cayenne guys are exempt

FWIW, I don't need it to be too obvious, it's really more for me! While I'm driving, the mirrors remind me of the RS.

I've seen photos...EnigmaWmn is definitely not a Cayenne guy.
And I've never owned one, so my opinion is meaningless.

Enjoy the Cayenne

Don't listen to the other jackasses. It's not that bad. I think someone who knows the cars will get what you are doing.

The least you can do is name names.

BTW, the original poster said:
"What are the thoughts?"

So, everyone gave their thoughts.

I see no reason to call out the jackasses (present company excluded of course) simply because some people don't like the look.

Don't ask a question if you are afraid of the answer...especially here in the Pig Pen.
Also, don't get your panties in a twist...it's no way to go thru life.
