Saw this coming out of the movie theater earlier today. I can't believe someone took the effort to do this to an MR2. The worst part is that you can see the holes in the front where the Toyota emblem was. The brake calipers where even red.

I am guessing that Oregon doesn't have as many Porsche's as many areas and people can pull this off without issue.

Woo...I have the only Porsche MR2 in all of Oregon...

Give them a break, they're handicapped!

Seriously, I've always thought that just because you have added a badge (turbo, R, Porsche...etc.) doesn't make it so. But if you feel good about yourself that way, so be it.

This coming from a debadged driver...

LMAO! Didn't even notice the handicap parking spot until amge63 called it out.

+1 to badge, and I'm also debadged.

If you take a close look at it, you can see that it is a Boxster Spyder!

One of my friends had a funny thought on the car. He said, "He's not trying to bang you, but his target audience probably wont know the difference."

Yep. My mother once told me about her neighbor's new red Ferrari, how he loves that car and takes meticulous care of it like me, how it's so low to the ground, it's red...until I saw it months later. It was a Fiero....It's all the same to her.

Do we have the same mom?
My mom grew up in SF and saw Jimi Hendrix live.
She couldn't tell you the difference between the Stones or Hendrix to save her life.

I would much prefer wearing a genuine Timex than a fake Rolex.

The Mister 2 is a great little roadster in its own right for its class, and I'm sure the person who rebadged this little car gets a load of crap from his/her buds about it. At just a bit under $100 a pop for the hood badge, the person spent some change to be fake. I just don't understand why he/she doesn't simply buy a 2000 - 2003 Boxster. There are some GREAT deals out there on the real deal.

The picture of the front sort of looks like a mini-Cayenne if you squint a little.
