I think it's quite amusing really, which is what I suppose it was meant to be or to draw a reaction of sorts.
I take it you know what I'm talking about or have seen it smile

It may well have been posted on here but I saw it the other day in the flesh in Sussex and it was a new 13 reg car so I didn't know if it had been posted about and I haven't seen anything yet.

I have photos smile

Yes smile

I had to double take when I first saw it; it was like my eyes had become polarising filters (no reflection off it at all).

It was quite striking and attracted a lot of attention from shoppers (but not in a positive way); I heard some quite rude comments but I'm of the opinion that it's the owners choice to have something a bit different and good for him. The comments were a bit off I think as the owner was sitting in it.

I wondered how on earth you'd clean bird poo off though; wire brush? wink

I'm guessing that it must have some sort of silicone protection like scotch-guard or similar otherwise it'd look filthy after a day in traffic.

I am really quite lost for words.

And not about the car, either...

Went to Porsche night at the Ace Cafe last night.

I've been in all 4 of my Porsches over the years and I have to say this one drew a lot of attention by comparison (boxster and 2 911s).

I had universal positive comments, these things are quite different in real life to the photos.

Therefore I think I can say that this is a real Porsche and it has the scarcity that makes it a little bit special too.

Haters will continue to hate behind the keyboards no doubt but I've not heard anyone say negative about the car yet.

Looks great. I drove one at the Porsche experience centre, and also drove my friends, 4 up on a 2 hour motorway/b/a road trip back in the pouring rain, where it was perfect.

Enjoy.
