9 1/10 Turbo

Porsche resurrect 'The baby' 935 idea for latest Turbo

---

After the Calibra, nothing the Porsche engineers did surprised Rohrl...

It seems that everyone wants a silver 911 turbo. Following on from our Calibra-based concoction a couple of weeks ago, here’s a slightly less believable attempt from a Greek enthusiast.

The ‘Smorsche’ has an interesting mix of 996 and 997 Turbo model styling cues, but we’ve no word as yet whether it has any variable-vane action going on under that rear engine deck...

A 996 Turbo for sale? Part 1

I think it's the wheels that give it away....

Aaah - I want to cuddle it.

No worse than a Smart

Let's face it, it's better looking than a Cayenne

Hey - Porsche have to reduce their company Co2 footprint too, don't they?

As is Jo Brand.

Going on the shape of the doors and the window outline it looks almost as if its based on a fiat 500. This gentleman wants shooting...

[ahonen]

I think that looks really rather good.



Hats off to him for the effort.

Just imagine what all the builder's talent and creativity could achieve if only he hadn't decided to base his styling on a 996.

What a waste it is that these peoples' skills are wasted cloning other cars.

Grow some nads and give us your own designs, please!

[drgp]

I really like it!

Would like to know what it is based on and is it fun to drive.

Why do you all assume he was trying to copy a porsche? Really it is obvious that he wasn't trying to produce a replica. Personally I admire the guys sense of humour, made me giggle dunno where your sense of humour has gone...

It's a FIAT 500, and we can only imagine!

[Vodka Margarine]

I agree! i think thats pretty funny, as long as the owner laughs when he drives it!

[e4uan]

You've got to admire the fact its rear engined. Little novelty cars like this are great, and I'm willing to bet whoever made it has something awesome sitting in his garage as well.
