It took me a while to get my head around what the hell this is!! Riviera with Savanna as well!

What a bizzare creation.

So it's a cat D 996 made to look like a 997 GT3 without the spoiler?

I'm a bit lost for words, but not in a good way..

I haven't read the ad but, is it really that horrendous?

Fair enough it's a previously damaged bitsa but, on looks alone, I wouldn't say it's offensive.

I don't mind it at all.Actually quite like it. Cover the dash and door cards in black alcantara, decent seats and to the average person it looks fairly decent.
He's been upfront with its history by putting the cat D in the title.

I like the wheels, and the colour. Modifying a car can be cool but trying to change it completely is in my view, pointless.

I'd say it's very overpriced.

Esp cp to this for example:

I think it looks alright but the current owner shouldn't have put the RS badge on the back, that just makes them look like a dick.

I'll get shot down for this but I think it's ok, obviously minus the RS badge and needs lowering (a lot), but it's not that bad... is it?

Lowering a lot eh? Whilst we're at it, Im thinking some blacked out windows, maybe a blue light underneath?

You know what I meant. If you're going to put the aero kit on you might as well get rid of the 4x4 stance.

But blacked out windows and blue lights aren't performance modifications...
