Rich,

Thanks for the post. That abomination makes the Cayenne look downright pretty by comparison.

Several things come to mind .... after getting up off my knees having thrown up....

Whoever is responsible has too much money, too little taste, too much time on their hands, not enough to do and too large an oilfield as part of their inheritance.....

I kind of like 'parts' of the car, but the steering wheel...

Do the steering wheel shifters have 'fire' 'smoke' and 'oil slick' buttons? Reminds me of the old video game Spy Hunter....

Hey, they found something to do with the '99 996 basketball dashboard material! And look at that - all parts duplication accomplished for the interior.

This has to be a movie prop of something. Either that or a rich fellow with tons of money and IMHO questionable taste commissioned that one. That said I would love to get my hands on that thing for a little run thru the desert. Be interesting to see what it would do. But the steering wheel has to go.

I knew it was a mistake when they let the Klan merge with the Jawas...

Come on guys it is just a concept car. There was a 928 in Denmark some years ago given similar treatment.
Rinspeed are just having fun. You should have seen their earlier model based on the 996 Turbo as well.
Do not be so sensitive. You might need to start worrying if Porsche decide to use such concepts which they have in the past.
Ciao,
