eBay Find of the Day: Epic custom Chevy SSR thinks it's a Porsche GT3
Chevrolet SSR with a Porsche complex – Click above for image gallery
If you like Porsche sportscars, may we suggest that you avert your eyes. Ironically, we'd still recommend the same if you aren't a fan of Stuttgart's Cayenne. Because if you thought that Porsche having an SUV was tough to swallow, that ain't nothin' compared to what's been done to this Chevrolet SSR.
Outfitted with the wheels, brakes and what appears to be a number of interior pieces from the Porsche 911 GT3, this particular SSR seems to be suffering from something of an identity crisis. (We dare not ask what the donor Porsche came away looking like). But that's not all: the owner appears to have made some unique modifications to the body as well, including a whale's mouth (ostensibly in, um... "tribute" to the GT3's whale tail spoiler, which rather surprisingly has not been fitted to the Chevy's bed cover) and rather small (presumably high-intensity discharge) headlamps.
If you're wondering when you might happen upon the unique creature, this mod job is far away from U.S. roads in Rügland, Germany, and comes to us via the magic of the internet. You're welcome. However, it can actually be yours for one easy payment of $105,000. No, we're not kidding. But if you're actually contemplating dropping that much cash on something like this, perhaps you might consider letting us steer you towards greener pastures, like, perhaps a genuine Porsche?

I don't like SSRs but after seeing this, they are a design masterpiece.

I think the regular SSR is ugly as sin, but this is just horridness.

Sometimes these "I really wish I had a " conversions at least visually work. Like a MR2 or Fiero turned Ferrari, but who the f' did they think they were going to convience that this was even a Porsche let alone a GT3.

After seeing that a new A-Team was coming out.... with Qui-Gon Jinn as "The Hannibal", I thought I had seen everything. Apparently not.
Children, avert your eyes.

There was an SSR in Truckin' that was made to look like a classic 50s Chevy. It looked wwwwaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy better than this. And that is saying something since I am not a fan of the Bow tie at all.
