Not keen on the rear spoiler or the yellow graphics but other than that yes please because it's a 911.

Agree, take off all graphics and any mention of Techart and it might be worth considering! Bit of a dogs dinner.

Flyweight, removing 60kg from a 1670 kg car, while adding a bunch of wings and a roll cage.

Surely that makes the Mclaren 720s look positively Strawweight.

the new 911 T only has a few kg removed, literally and is considered a lightweight special edition

the old 911 T from memory was 5kg like for like lighter and considered the same

When the rear wing has its own mini wing, you know you've gone too far

[thegreenhell]

yuk.

[Raccaccoonie]

love it

[GTRene]

love the interior with all that alcantara/racetech and those seats.

PAH….

The comments on here are inevitable, but I think it's mega. Not sure I'd buy one over a GT3, but I suspect most buyers will already have one, or be able to.

In a world of increasingly sanitised cars, the madness of this should be appreciated.

Considering it's a comments section, I'm pretty sure comments would be inevitable.

Lose all the graphics and leave it plain black - I think it looks fantastic (though the extra prosthetic wing I could do without!).

I appreciate your attempt at being a smart arse, but you know know what I meant. A car like this will always attract a load of negativity on here, because a lot of PHers hate modified cars/Porsches/rich people/everything/everyone.

'Attempt' at being a smart arse? I think I pretty much nailed it thank you very much!

Gloss forged carbon that looked like plastic (maybe it was plastic)

"Carbon Fibre" is plastic; it's just plastic reinforced with layers of woven carbon matting.

I wouldn’t say that’s correct in the case of prepreg CF

I think you did!

I like it, in a slightly 'fingers up at you' kind of way. It does look like something a small boy would draw in the back of his exercise book though!

I actually quite like this, even with those decals...
Although I'd still rather just have a GT3.
