I am still relatively new to the P-car scene, but this just seems like someone is in dreamworld to me. Anyone else have any thoughts or comments on this one? I'm thinking they would be lucky to get $75k for this, much less $190k.

They are dreaming. $190,000.00 I can think of many Porsches I would rather entertain for that kind of $$$ .

"There is a TWO YEAR waiting list just to get your Porsche into Wicked!"

I think it's because it takes that long to find a salvaged Porsche.

Ok so I am not losing my mind. I seriously thought they ruined the car and then to think it is worth anything over 30k seems like they r on crack to me..

Maybe they accidentally added a zero...$19k would seem more appropriate for that train wreck

bluelt1ss is infamous around these parts
the front end conversion looks great, the back is just too extreme. but i kept trying to look over the price and see if there was a typo...just cant come up with one.

the large amount of work went into making it look not as sexy as original i can appreciate the time they spent putting on the 997 front end and widebody rear as its no easy feat.

ive heard many people tlak about how they used salvaged cars to do their builds

but 650flywheel horsepower is a big stretch for the mods and i mean big.

the car is not worth anywhere near 190k if the car was never wrecked before the conversion id think a non-porsche fanatic would probably pay 70ish for it eventually.
