Ya know, they could have had a two tone car by just painting the side view mirrors red ( oem option in many white GT3/ GT3RS ) and probably ok with the seats in red as well ( if they really must carry that theme the interior somehow..) but not all that other tacky nonsense ..

Rap, " swede " shoes ? Are those from the Bjorn Borg collection ? LOL, now, suede shoes are pure class, always in style ..not so sure about the two tone ones, but just as long as they're not red and white to match the 968...

Yup, the asking price expectation is as delusional as the person who created the color scheme

Can anyone make out what the "artwork" on the driver's door is supposed to be?

Ds how did you know? Actually no red and white. Though I must confess about 10 years ago when they were out of fashion and difficult to find I stumbled across a great sale of them in Palm Beach and ordered 10 of them in all different colors. Then that year they came back in fashion. No I am not a pimp in a Dirty Harry movie! Lol lots of good lookin two tones that even a conservative right winger like you would feel comfortable wearing.!!!! Lol

I know it sucks and it's garrish and I'm awful but I would kill to have those Lambo doors on that purple car just for the wow factor.
Walking away in shame......

Actually in a sensible color 968 ( sure, I know that's subjective ) the wow factor of gull wing doors might look stylish.. As long as they were the MBZ waivy style, not that Lamborghini flat panel stuff.. Imo

The "lobster claw" rims, scorned and rejected by so many, actually work in this situation.

I think the lobster claws have a much wider "claw" or opening, at the end of the spokes, don't they?
