Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Did any of the tuners ever do one? There were loads done on the 930/964/993 etc by Gemballa, DP, and Porsche themselves etc, but did anyone, big or small ever do one on the 996...? I can see that fashions have moved on, but would be interesting to find out Here are some pics on the bonkers Gemballa Extremo based on the 993 to wet the appetite!

POST 2Original post

Yes there have been a few I think. Here's one attached, obviously shown with the automotive euivalent of a paperbag because its even uglier :grin: 8)

POST 4Original post

Why would people spend all that time and money to make a 911 into a Japanese monstrosity?!

POST 5Original post

I think you'll find that is a Japanese monstrosity trying to look like a Porsche! If your eyes allow, check out the sunroof, roof line, windows, wing mirrors, door handles, seats etc etc. Not Pork, but overcooked Sushi!

POST 7Original post

Thank you. I'm here all week.. don't forget to tip your waiter! :salut:

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have to say from this angle the Hips on this car look VERY sexy, prrrr!! ;-) supermodel curves!

POST 9Original post

Youv'e been looking at www.barryboys.co.uk . Which Shed of the Week was that? Shed of the Year 2008 shown below.

POST 10Original post

I hope that is a late '80s Ford Escort done up to look like a Quattro (well if you squint). If it is a Quattro, I shed a tear for a lost icon. If only it been left unmolested it would be about the only thing to appreciate this recession, other than the price of gold and D. Cameron's chances of PM.

POST 11Original post

An Audi 80 apparently. If you visit the barryboys site you will realise that you made a far too intelligent response though. And, sadly, Porsches aren't exempt from chav treatment, as this poor 944 demonstrates:

POST 12Original post

Haha, no actually I just googled 996 conversion and it came up in 'images'. It started as a serious search, apologies tedwedz for taking your thread this way, but I was sure there was a conversion I had seen but for the life of me can't find it on here or google. That gold joke is an Acura (Honda) Integra...dont worry I was never in any doubt! FWIW I think very few can out Porsche Porsche when it comes to design, what they do well or what they do badly :grin:

POST 13Original post

I don't wish to partake in that sort of filth, and I'll thank you to keep your unhealthy internet habits to yourself. Other people use this computer you know! Can anyone tell me how I delete cookies again?

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No worries, quite amusing! Im still amazed no one seems to have done one! There are a lot of bad taste conversions on porsches out there, seems obvious!

POST 15Original post

The funny thing on that 944 picture (which first thought from first pic was, hold on that's a rare 924 Carrera GT, until I saw the second photo....) is that if you look closely, either he is trying to out-do his neighbour with an equally chavvy attempt, or he has done it to more than one! Without getting taken away by the style police after the first one! :wack:
