Re: What Car Is This?
as long as the missus has bigger boobs than me i'm happy 
quite a nice conversion as conversions go, improvement on a boxster imho (looks-wise that is)... but any conversion where one car pretends to be a much more expensive one is a bit suss, brings to mind those mr2 'ferrari 355/360' s

(same headlights?... same company?)

and even worse the 944 testarossa abomination, which i can't find the picture of; an act of mercy as your eyes might stop working.

Top one looks like an MGF. Bottem one looks a mess. Don't understand why? They don't go any faster.

No, they go even slower. What with the extra weight and drag.
