What do you think of this?

Porsche 993 widebody

Looks quite an extreme widebody. Very aggressive looking.

If all the roads are like that in Japan, think i'd part ex it for a micra.

Not looked at the PH homepage today then? It's a Rauh Welt Begriff and there was a lovely one at the Porsche Sunday Service last weekend. Looked stunning in the metal.

Check out the 'Events' forum and look at the Sunday Service threads, there are loads of pics of it.

I agree. This one is a little better....

I think the 993 is the most beautiful of the 911's however I think the bolt on arches look gash! The car would look so much nicer if they were fully smoothed into the wings.

No, it doesn't, it looks "Halfords" BECAUSE of the bolt-on arches. Would be amazing if the arches were part of the wing.

993 GT2 looks Halfords?
I think we will have to agree to disagree there!

[pete917]

I think it looks brilliant

...it's probably even more complicated than that as I find that once I driven a car, it influences what I think of the looks. If it drives well, the looks grow on me. It it's a shed, it tends to make me go off the looks a bit, even if I loved them.

I think there is probably a touch of this with the 993 GT2 looks.

Maybe for some but sadly I've not had the pleasure of time behind the wheel of a 993 GT2 and I still think it looks awesome!

Looks are a personal thing though. I do understand why some wouldn't like it. It looks very purposeful.

[RudeDog]

It definitely looks purposeful, I just think the bolt on arches are an abomination on a car like this. Could you imagine if they did it to a 997 GT car?

That might look good, IMHO of course.

[ChipsAndCheese]

They kind of did it with the RSR racer IIRC, and I seem to remember reading that many people were hoping the GT3RS 4.0 would look a bit more like that when it was first rumoured. Personally, I think if they had have done it for the GT3RS 4.0 there would be a lot who love it and some who don't; much like the style of the GT cars in general I think.
