Hahaha I like! I don't think it looks terrible. I'd drive that around with a massive trollface on.

Both German, both mid-engine. They were practically the same before the body kit..

Is it bad that I think it looks better than a real 959?!!?

And yes, I would totally drive it. Turbo the bug motor for extra lulz!

Yes, it's bad, but you’re an AMC enthusiast so poor aesthetic taste is taken for granted

For some reason, I think the roof needs like a 2" chop. Other than that, i'd rock it.

You must've seen the same one I saw at CNC last year. No, it's not bad, those things are ugly as heo and I'd pick the looks of any 996-up (and all Turbos down) over a 959 any day.

I was face to face with this car on Saturday and I beg to disagree.

I prefer the real 959, although not by that much...

I'm not a huge fan of the 959, but that one rocks.

You fixed nothing. Even most hardcore Porschephiles don't like the 959's looks.

Of course you are right as usual (where's that bowing down emoticon when you need it). I did some research and found out that not one person on the earth likes the looks of the 959. It's not just your opinion, it's a fact. Got it.
