Rear end kicked out a bit too easy for my liking but it looks like a lot of fun for a trackday |

My German is pretty ropey, but I think that’s 944 suspension, anti-roll bars, etc with a Boxster engine and some GT3 performance parts. Maybe. Fun! |

WOW thats cool, i think its a modded 3.6 lump in there, the rear did look a little lively, but with 250+ horses thats to be expected, love the car |

It has a 944 turbo suspension and a 3.6L boxer engine of 321HP and 6-speed gearbox from the 993 with various RS upgrades. At least that's what they say.

I bet it handles better than this Porsche engined V.W. camper van? %20Split-screen%20Camper%20Blue%20e2.jpg)

It looks like a really clever cut and shut. The interior looks 911-ish and I do believe the roof is off a 911. So have they grafted the back and front ends of a Karmann Ghia onto a 911? Clever stuff. |

i love those camper vans, there was a series of programs on sky, i think it was discovery, where someone restored a camper van, it was badly rotten and the restorer wanted to scrap it, but it was finished and looked sweet ! |

It looks like the standard Karmann Ghia body to me?
