Meh, I think that the exterior is over done as well. I really don't like that front bumper. As for the interior... well it isn't too hard to strip an interior for weight savings. But it does make it a pain to live with.

Well over all it looks like a lot of custom items and time went into the vehicle no-doubt about that.... But when it came to the rear of the vehicle looks like they just stuck a Big O' GT3 RSR Cup wing and called it a day... No rear bumper upgrade or anything....

This car has been around for a few years and I believe the John sold the car a few years ago.
He had a web page set up for the car and all of the details of the build.
I looked for the site today and could not find it.

Don't like the front at all. That's just my 2 cents.

I was reading the details in the center of the page,
I the car in the detais is a BMW not a Porsche.

House of Kolors Kandy Red Brandywine (the car is not red)
·
· Shaved Moldings, Keyholes, Sidemarkers, Antennae, and Rear Bumper Reflectors (antennae??? Mine is in the windshield---Rear Bumper reflectors?? Dont have them on mine or any other 986 I have seen)
· Sparco Fuel Door (there does not appear to be a fuel door at all)
·
·
·
· Kamei Headlight Trim (possible but it looks like GT3 race lights)
· Hagus M3 Electronic Sport Mirrors (I dont think so...looks like oem mirrors or carbon fiber mirrors)
· AC Schnitzer Rear Window Difuser (never seen a difuser from AC Schnitzer on a convertible before, AC is a BMW tuner, possible other vehicles also but BMW never seen them for BMW)
·
·
· JP Angel Eyes (Possible retro fit but does not look like it, again Angel Eyes are a BMW thing. Yes other tuners have added Angel Eyes to other makes but these look like race light to me.)
