Did someone chop the top on a Porsche 959?!

Uh…no. This is a replica which will offer almost none of the 959’s performance. Still, how can you put a price on silliness? Will Karmann Ghia fans be offended? Is that what’s under here? The seller indicates it’s registered as a 1990 VW.

Hmm…959 or Speedster?

959 script near the faux intake is a classy touch. (ugh)

Interior has some mods to look a little more Porsche-esque, but really doesn’t look anything like a 959.

Ill-fitting top is ‘interesting’.
