Default Spyder CF Hardtop on Panjo

I'd never seen one before so thought I'd post the link here. No affiliation, just sharing it for anybody who might have interest.

IMHO, That is one of the worst things someone could do to a 987.2 Spyder.

Agreed. There was a thread awhile ago on this where the owner posted up pics. Not sure if this is same vehicle. I noted it looked like Juggernaught from Xmen.

Different strokes and all that, but sure does seem to me to ruin the raison d'être for the car, especially the "Spyder" and its cloth door pulls.

Can you see planets out of the rear window? Cause it looks like it belongs on a Gemini capsule.

It's always a shame when someone who knows a lot about engineering and manufacturing decides to release a product without engaging someone who knows a lot about design and aesthetics.

I do a lot of carbon fiber work and that is one of the ugliest things I have ever seen on a Porsche...

Not sure it is the ugliest thing I have ever seen, but the shape of the window is novel. It reminds me of a WW2 german helmet.

I'd be all over that hardtop if it didn't interfere with my "PCP" option.
