Default GT1 or a Carrera with GT1 kit?.. the truth

I long time ago, I created this topic...

http://www.motorworld.net/forum/showthread.php?t=24265

The doubt was GT1 or 911 Carrera with GT1 kit? Saturday I saw this car again... I filmed it passing by me..




Vid -> http://rapidshare.de/files/12715653/...rrera.avi.html


This is definily a Carrera with kit, isn't it?


see ya 8)

you are right to question it... the owner could've come quite a bit closer to it being a GT1 then what he has done, however... if he had done wheel spacer/wider wheels/tires on the rear... then, followed by the proper wide-body. it would look much closer to accurate.

however... the rear windws, and c pillars are all wrong, the top mounted intake looks tacked on... and it doesnt sound anywhere near as loud enough to be a homologated race car..

at least its still a porsche... interesting sighting

I can't imagine anyone that would ruin a GT3 like that.. what the hell is wrong with people.. I would sort of understand if it was a regular Carrera, but putting all that extra [shit] body work on a GT3 will just make it heavy and slow
