I couldn't do that car. Waaay too stressful trying to decide on what color Bumperplugs to use.
Blue? Yellow?
Check out the head-on shot. Perhaps they could use it in the next Batman movie.
"Over $130K invested", 50% of that for barf bags.
Sheesh! I thought we got rid of that disgusting tin shed.
Why do people do this. It's beyond me? Maybe its owned by a descendant of Janis Joplin. Mind you at least her 356 was tasteful.
Here's some more Weird paint jobs.
What a freaking joke!!!
The seller claims: nearly $5000 in carbon fiber exlusive interior appointments. I say: Where? The only CF I see is the shift column and handbrake... Where's the rest?
The seller claims: The pictures do not do the car justice. I say: what the hell would do justice to this thing?!?... It says all over this thing is guilty and deserves the death penalty in the form of RMS failure, blown engine, and blown tranny.
The seller also claims: You cant drive this car anywhere without crowds gathering. I say: I'm sure just to beat you up!
$8,800 on budnick tires and wheels? last i checked 4 budnick wheels and tires were $1500-$2000 for 18s.. besides aren't budnicks for rednecks with trucks.. what the hell are they doing on a porsche...
i think the owner of this car proves that liberace is still alive... he's been hiding out...
they never did find his body did they.. makes you wonder....
the even sadder thing is, there is actually a bidder for $32,000 for that.. thing...
Oh cummon now, no Porker deserves that lot thrown at it. It's not the Porsches fault that some dum brained human did that to it. A new set of wheels and a paint job and you get yourself a nice 996 cab cheap. The poor thing is crying out to be loved by someone.....I bet it would give you a lifetime of trouble free fun.......well except the RMS once or twice and maybe a gearbox.....hell maybe an engine too... Oh OK then I give up you win
I have told the story before. I took this pic 3 years ago when the car was at my dealer for service. In person it is a quality paint job - looks like a surf board. Looks a lot better to me in person then the ebay pictures.
I spoke to the salesman who sold the car when it was new. A lady in the Bay Area owns it. She is a pilot and also has a house in Arizona. Do not know if she stills owns it but at least it explains why it is now in Arizona. The rear license plate when I saw it had the tail number for a plane registered in Oregon.
She bought another Porsche and wanted to trade it in at my dealer, but they did not want it. This is about the third time I have seen it on ebay.
Ugh........
I wonder what happened to that pink pearl 996 in Florida, that was for sale last year. Rumor was - it had been matched to a gals' nail polish. She had to be blonde........
Is this what your talking about.....
I can't tell for sure but it looks like a Boxster to me.
This one is not exactly my cup-of-tea either but it sure isn't as bad as Ms Psycadelic's 996 cab
That's not it...but scary how similar it is. Can't beleive there are 2! The other was a pink 996 with paint to match pink sport designs if I am not mistaken.
and for that person... whoever said females are the more intelligent species, must have been one... there can be no other answer for these disgraces upon a metal object intended for on-road use.
That's the one............... butt ugly....... I don't know if it's true - but they said you have to change the oil & filter at the end of every month, right after it refuses to start.........
Well, can't disagree with the statement "pictures don't do the car justice".
Arson might do the car justice, or a crusher. This one screams "unpimp my ride!" AS
