looks terrible, but wouldn't take much to return it as its only cosmetic

But he wants a premium for it!

Umm bit like Sophie Ellis Bextor, all the bits look fantastic but just don't hack it when put together! :mrgreen:

I may have to do the same to my PU once the blower gets fitted!

You must be kidding?

It must have around 600 bhp according to his add

THIS IS A VERY VERY FAST CAR AND SHOULD BE ABOUT 330 TO 350 BHP FASTER THAN MOST 911,S AND BOXTERS MUCH FASTER

The headlamp treatment is similar to that shown on page 12 of this months 911&Porsche World. I think they would be an improvement over the pop up air brakes.

Agreed. They would be more aerodynamic.
Shame they look cack!

With the only real mods being an adjustable wastegate and some chips he's probably only at 290-300 :roll:

Unless he's turned it up to 25psi :shock:

So the ad should start "Once upon a time................."

300 bhp would still make it fairly rapid, but wouldn't all those scoops on the front would act as an air brake

It's enough for the Tesco run, but not enough to crack a smile unfortunately.

yeh but when you've only got 190 bhp (when it was new) 300 bhp is a dream :shock:

To be fair none of my cars make 300bhp currently, and the 944 is at the bottom of the league. I suspect they need 500+ to make them really fun, based on my experience of 360 in my 944 and 505 elsewhere.
