Spotted in Singapore - what is this ?

[V41LEY]

Production model or just chavvy body kit ?
Apologies for shadows but it was parked under a tree in bright sunlight !!

[DaveShark]

Chavy bodykit I'd say.

Cayman in drag

I'm going to take a guess that its a Techart or Gemballa Cayman, I'm 99% sure that isn't a production special...

It's certainly not special....in my eyes!

[hopeydaze]

...and probably cost about SGD400,000 which is around £200k. Cars are expensive in Singapore

Cayman S with 997 gt3 front, side skirts and a huge spoiler. I bet the motor is still stock

Techart looks close if you google, as the spoiler looks identical but body kit is different.

I think the full name for the model you're looking at is known as an abomination...
Or the "cayman WTF?" for short.

Isn't that the conversion featured in this month's Porsche & 911 World? A French company? I can't remember the name now and I have ditched the magazine but it looks very similar to the Cayman they featured in the article ... and yes, 'orrible!

Not in the habit of slagging off other people's cars, but I'll make an exception in this case.jeez that is nasty looking.

Whoever designed that needs shooting.

TechArt dont do subtle... The reflective side stickers, wing badges and that huge crest on the rear hatch dont help.

Personally, I dont mind the yellow one (too much) in the link above and as a previous poster stated the red car is crazy money in Singapore. It can never get my head around what people pay for cars in Singapore, utter madness!

[DS240]

Bits look tech art.

But I think it looks absolutely horrid.

Much prefer having a standard car over that mess.

[mollytherocker]

What are people trying to achieve, when they create these car crashes?

I bet they have ruined the aerodynamics, the ride, the handling, high speed stability and probably increased the weight too.

I am still cringing at the big badge on the boot. I would crush it.

The car looks to have TechArt components but from a variety of different ranges, rather than a single program. TechArt do a Cayman pack called "GT Sport", which does provide some functional benefits (cooling, downforce, engine, exhaust, brakes, suspension) and is not only cosmetic. Looks-wise, well thats in the eye of the beholder:

[V41LEY]

I'll go with it being of Techart origin.
Will try and find a price for these things in Sing !
