I say to each their own. Everyone should do what THEY love. I have my preferences and my dislikes, but if you love a PTS car (or any color) with tons of stripes, stickers, whatever - I say DO IT.

I may not agree with everyone's choices but that's what makes car ownership a beautiful thing - we get to make it our own. And you may not like mine, and I don't care. I love it. That's all that matters.



But.... just in case.... I do keep a barf bag near the monitor if I scroll past something that makes me nauseous... ......................... J/K of course!

But that's my point: it's not a waste if it's what the owner loves. And the beauty of decals is that it can all be undone. No harm no foul if they ever decide to sell.

Porsche spent some good money to come up with that look. Only people that really know Porsche would know the difference...I think it's kind of clever. Call it an homage to the RS...

I have to believe the guy did this kinda tongue-in-cheek, in which case I think it's pretty funny.

Wow I live like 2 miles from that Scheels. I have yet to see any GT4's on the street in Utah let alone the coveted GT4RS. /s Wonder if its truly PTS or just a wrap.

Calling the owner out for fake fender vents? Sure.
And for the fake 'GT4RS' logo? Fine.
But slamming him for painting his calipers yellow? BS.

Can you imagine a salmon orange PTS paint scheme with red calipers? Grotesque comes to mind. The fact is there are any number of body paint colors that warrant changing the calipers from their original red or yellow. That's a matter of taste not fakery.

Don't forget the fake sticker fender vents Given how blatantly apocryphal the entire car is, he is faking the calipers too. Say you see a woman with nose job, surgically modified lips, facelift, obvious fake breasts, and a huge *** ("badonkadonk"). I wouldn't give her the benefit of the doubt that her *** was real especially if she was Caucasian.

I didn't mean to call him out on his choice to paint his calipers Yellow... That's clearly his taste. He's clearly aiming for a look that caters to his tastes.
