Hi all,
I've been minus-Porsche for over two years now and am getting itchy feet. I wanted to return to an air-cooled Porsche, but I'm not sure if I can get what I want for the money I want to pay.
So... I thought about doing something different, but am wondering if my imagination and reality match up.
I really like this widebody speedster:
I also like this 996 GT3 RSR:
With Boxster prices being pretty cheap, what if you could merge the two... would it end up being a "marmite" car - i.e. some would love it and some would hate it?
Here's my thinking... stick to the speedster design/style as much as possible... so black Boxster 986, RSR bodykit (no rear spoiler), spider roof cover, 18" (BBS?) wheels with black centres and polished rim (edge). GT3 look interior (996 or 997 look) bucket seats with houndstooth centre (like the "50 year" 997). Silver side stripes (similar to the speedster).
For the front lights, I'm not sure whether the std 996 lights should be used or race look lights like this:
Something similar has been done before, but I'm wondering if I could do a better job with the design.
OK, now I'm ready to be shot down... comments please?
