At brands hatch this afternoon.

Apparently it’s an ex American race car that is now being used as a track day toy.

No offence but those LED rear lights and exhaust tips look mingin. Each to their own and all that but I'd personally lose them makes that otherwise very nice 997 look not so nice IMO.

I must admit, I don’t like the exhaust tips, they came with the Topgear back boxes & 200 cell cats. I had them sprayed black so they weren’t as noticeable ( no fooling you though ). The fitters said the OEM tips were knackered & couldn’t put them back on.

As for the back lights, they are Dectane… probably the best aftermarket LED lights you can get. Look much better than the factory units ( IMHO ). You sound like a OPC Manager… they like to pull aftermarket stuff to bits, even though a lot of it is fitted because the OEM parts failed. But then it is a 2007 car coffee

Enjoy Black Friday smile

Hmmm, I’m not convinced that opening with “No offence”, actually nullifies going on to be somewhat offensive ... wink

As Orange Curry’s mother said, “If you’ve nothing nice to say, best say nothing”.

I see plenty of cars on here that make my teeth itch (and don’t get me started on Rennlist) but choose to say nothing, rather than cause offence by questioning others taste.

So, rather than constantly posting images of another person’s car, let’s see some of your current car, and some images of the cars that went before it, and see if they find favour with the PH Porsche forum regulars...

I did something similar some years ago :

Mint Green ?

On a 964RS it would be my absolute favourite ... I like Leaf Green on a GT4 ... and I owned a Cayman R in Peridot Green !

For new cars I often like the launch colours ...

This 997 Turbo (?) is certainly distinctive smile

GT2 !

Sorry if I offend any of you die hard Porsche paint colour fans… but mint makes me feel sick!

It is probably the ONLY colour that does. Love Speed yellow, Viper, Rubystone & dozens of others… but sorry, mint is nappy sh!t smile
