I love runny-egg Porsches to a fault. I appreciate the runny-egg look so much that I recently came a little too close to buying a cheap broken-down 986 Boxster from Copart. I’m glad I didn’t, because what I bought instead is in immensely better shape and is a perfect platform for my future plans. But still, there’s something about those headlights on that era of Porsche that can lead to some very poor financial decisions.

When you combine that style with Porsche red (presumably Guards Red), kick-ass wheels, and a factory aero body kit, my jaw instantly drops to the ground. This is such an all-around good-looking Porsche. Other cars are awfully overrated when painted in red, but this is just wonderful.
